Since we aren't the best bloggers...we always seem to be behind! This post is just full of random things we've been up to in the last few months!

In May, we went to Andrew's lacrosse awards banquet. I was a proud wifey as Andrew received so many awards!

Andrew and Ted sportin their championship rings from last season!

last year's national champ ring! So huge!

Every year my school does a 5K fun run the last week of school. All students are encouraged to participate and even teachers and parents. I told my students that I would run it with them because I want them to know how important physical fitness is. Turns out I got 1st place for female adults. Woo hoo! My kids were so proud of me. I even got a medal at our assembly :)

After a year of using our landlord's double bed, we decided it was time to use grandma's wedding present to us and get ourselves a great new mattress. We haven't really done furniture shopping before and didn't really know what to look for. Luckily the guy who helped us was really helpful and helped us pick the perfect mattress! We were so excited as you can tell from the picture! They gave us 20% off if we drove the bed home ourselves, hence the ghetto picture with the mattress on top of our car! ha ha
It took some getting used to. Our backs hurt for about a week straight but now it is so comfy and we love it!

Summertime is perfect for BBQing. However, we don't really have a porch to put a BBQ on...so we had to buy a little mini BBQ :) It's perfect for just the two of us though! It's pretty funny watching Andrew grill on it though because he has to pretty much sit on the ground to cook it. We have been loving cooking outside in the warm weather though.

My brother, Jordan, moved in with us for the summer so we've been having lots of fun together. I'm glad we are so close!

 We bought the pass of all passes to have unlimited access to Seven Peaks Water park. We have been spending lots of our summer days relaxing at the pool. With the pass we also can go to Trafalga and mini golf, go-kart, batting cages, etc. It's been a lot of fun!

The best part of being a teacher is having the whole summer off! I have loved it. I taught summer school for a few weeks but now have the rest of it off. Andrew doesn't start work until August so we have been able to relax and spend lots of time together everyday. We're just living the life! :)
