My Cousin Got Married!

7/27

I find my friday's are excruciatingly painful. I have a half day of work friday, so I get home around noon/oneish  and run errands or catch up on project. Doesn't sound bad huh? It would be wonderful if it weren't for the fact that by friday I have a huge build up of missing my Scott....so it's hard to concentrate or be motivated. All I want to do is wait for 9:30PM, when I can see him. Today, however, I was extremely happy to find that Scott had taken a shift differential so he was coming home around 5PM. I was so happy to have a little time to talk with him before we headed over to my cousin's open house to celebrate her marriage (not her reception, that's tomorrow).

PS. Our garden is producing and growing! :-)

These are supposed to turn orangeish yellow, so we can't pick them yet.

I ran outside and had to pick these cuties before the storm blew them off the plant, they were so good!

Today I was so happy to do a 6 mile run with my mom. I Love going running with her, it's so refreshing. But I've been out of the habit for so long I got quite winded and had to stop a few times. I need to get back on the band wagon of running a race in every state of the US.
Scott and I went shopping today for things we needed, it was nice to walk around and just talk with him and not feel rushed. We tried a new sushi place as well called Sapura's....not bad, and cheap...but I have to say I wasn't impressed. Our favorite is still Miso's. We then went back to our place and caught up on laundry and chores and such.

Tonight was my cousin's second wedding reception. Scott and I had a lot of fun, it's nice to get all dressed up and feel pretty for a date. I wore this beautiful red dress that my mom had made me (I had mentioned I didn't have a good modest classy dress for fancy dates, and she took it upon herself to make me one), I love her so much. She is so selfless and such a lovely woman. So, I got all ready and Scott came home with a surprise. He got me a set of pearl earrings, necklace, and bracelet. I felt so lovely and special. That man spoils me, I Love him so much. He is so good to me. I was on cloud nine tonight. We enjoyed the beautiful reception and company, but I couldn't help but be in my own little world with Scott. I just enjoyed every second I had with him. (Yes I know that sounds way too sappy, but it's true. ;-p)

Congrats Christopher and Becky!
