Because of the beautiful looonnngg summer days and nights,

my blogging has been a little shy lately.

Sometimes I just have a hard time sitting down at my computer when there's cooler stuff to do outside.

Plus,

our summer has been packed with activities every weekend...and I'm having a hard time keeping up.

It's been great!

Here's some quick updates I want to remember:

A couple weeks ago we piled tons of blankets in the back of our truck,

found a really dark corner of an empty church parking lot,

parked,

and watched Just Go With It{for the zillionth time} with Dave and Alix Anderson.

Super fun,

and super squishy cozy!

Haha!

My cousin Scarlet came into town for a weekend and we got to go say hi!
Here we are with her cute boy Grayson.
He's SUCH a little stud!
{and refused to even crack a smile here for us!}

Almost every Wednesday night my neighbor Kate has been coming over and we've been watching
So You Think You Can Dance.
Lalala LOOOOVVEE!
It's been so fun to watch and have a girl friend to talk to about it!
sidenote:
She's a very "cooking-savy" type of gal,
and makes some AWESOME food.
Check out her blog at http://tastytownrecipes.blogspot.com/

I would like to introduce you to my new main squeeze.



At work I was seeing all these stinking cute handbags/purses/wallets and I always asked where they bought them.
And the answer was always the same:
Beloved.
That little store next to Fancy Nails...
across the street from Artic Circle.
Aha!
I was so sick of my old junky one on Friday that I finally went and purchased her.
Isn't she gorgeous?
Hahaha.



Talk about space!
I love all the pockets and secret compartments that are on her!



Oh and lookie what it has!
A KEY HOLDER!
Wow.
This one's a definite keeper.



Just for kicks,
when I dumped everything out of my old purse to put it into this new one,
I decided to take a pic.
Let's play "I Spy"!

Can you spy...
- a notpad
- a hunting liscence
- hand wipes
- a gum wrapper
- a nail file
- Q-tips
- a coupon
- two pens
- gum
- a reciept
- lip gloss
- a Wet Seal promo card
- hand sanitizer
- lotion
- kleenex
- an ibeprofin pill
- a folded up list of references

We BBQ-d it up Friday night with some good friends.
Fred, Nita, Troy, Aly, Charles, Nancy, Josh, Nathan...and more were all there!
It was fun to hang out,
eat some yummy grilled food,
and chill with them for a little bit.

Then Saturday I went to my LAST FA100 event {yayyyy!!!},
and later we headed over to Tietjen's with Garen and Katie,
and watched Red Riding Hood.



We kinda thought it would be dumb/cheesey because it was directed by same dude that directed the Twilight movies,
However,
it was SO GOOD!
It kept us all guessing till the end - and we haven't seen one like that in a while!
