Friends & Fireworks




All in all, 4th of July weekend was a great one! Got a chance to watch the fireworks at Salty Senoritas with everyone and then just enjoyed some drinks...low key, but still a lot of fun. And after seeing Nick & Katherine, I started to get even more excited for their wedding in October! Each set of bridesmaid and groomsmen are going to have their own "theme" as they are introduced to the reception... I think we decided on the theme for my groomsman and myself as "Top Gun," where we both wear aviator sun glasses and walk in to the theme song from the movie! haha. I'm looking forward to all the fun festivities in the months to come for sure! I don't know what it is about weddings, but I just get so excited! I think it's that embedded gene that all girls have in them... lol




Another exciting thing about this past weekend, was that Leslie and Michael welcomed their first child on Friday, July 2nd, 2009! Braeden James Fleming. I am just so happy for them! I also am beginning to feel old though... considering just how long I have known Leslie. Or maybe it's me reflecting on all the former ball kids who are either married and/or have kids that makes me feel old. Please note: no, I am not the next ball kid in line to have children (*knock on wood*) or get married...well, yet anyways. For now, I am perfectly happy being 24 years old and not being settled down yet. I'm really having the time of my life right now.




And finally, while on the subject of happiness, I am anxiously awaiting that phone call from work so I can finally get the ball rolling on my job and sign my official contract. I'm slightly nervous as I wait though, just from the stand point of the economy...eek! But other teachers have reassured me in the meantime. I think I'm just getting a little antsy (oh and broke) while I wait it out. The summers are great, but even with Mercury, I am so bored during the day! Not much to do when it's like 150 degrees in your car. Good thing I have this blog :)
