This Summer

My it flew by, didn't it? I've been on a trip to France to see the little one (my Dad calls her "the littlest girl" which is a more adorable nickname than I ever would have thought him able to produce). It was essentially a week spent indoors with a baby either crying or sleeping or eating - exhausting but somehow a restful break from life. So far I've attended two weddings with another coming up in a couple of weeks, one requiring a road trip to Pennsylvania, the other a trip to Cape Cod and a five day family reunion of epic proportions. Never have all my cousins (except my sister) been in the same place at the same time!

Look, I don't want to bore you and I'm not feeling very clever at the moment, so let's just get down to brass tacks, shall we? This summer:

Trips taken:
Charleston
France
Pennsylvania

Other Life Achievements (Coming at you [me] in September!):
Moving (lower rent, what up!)
New Job (If you know me, you know I'm producing a massive primal scream of thanks to the universe!)
New Choir Season (Managing Director this time - yikes)
Going to the mitten state to meet my gentleman caller's family (double yikes) (also going to a football game, and there is fear in my heart)
Old Man Stevens is getting married [this isn't really my life achievement - maybe I should start a new list]

Crap that has happened:
You know, all those trips, etc
Shit ton of brunching
Some grilling and picnics

Whew, most disorganized post ever. I have got to get some pictures up sometime as well.

Also, sorry for the long break from posting. See y'all soon!
