Whoa...

It's July 20. What does that mean? In a few SHORT weeks, summer will be over-my last real summer as a student Then I will head into my last year of law school--study for the bar and *hopefully* (after a very long tropical vacation), I will start working. While it seems that summer just started, it has been jam-packed with so much! Just this last month, we have

thrown a stellar birthday party for three amazing kiddos...

created a new band (ok so a fictitious band) called Betty and the Sweetness...

this little trio (Corey, Brent and Stu) has actually been playing together at church for quite awhile, but at our friend Sam and Whitney's wedding, it all came together. The band set up in a room dedicated to (no joke) Betty Sweet Ness. And thus was born the Band--Betty and the Sweetness: We're the Sweetness...Betty Couldn't make it. (that's the long title).

took the whole family to see the hubs play in his REAL band Under Shelter when they performed at the Honi-Honi in Deep Creek Maryland (which btw, an encore presentation will be August 27 if you are interested!!)

went to an amazing crab dinner hosted by my friend and office neighbor-Josh. A buddy of his brought in two cooler fulls of fresh crab from Annapolis. He was kind enough to share the loot with a variety of friends.

And most recently, I got the opportunity to go to Summersville for a zip-lining adventure with the other BR clerks. (Hope to have photos of us bedecked in our gear and zipping along soon). The night before, we stayed in a cabin that was about the most rustic I have ever stayed in. 5 beds in the loft, a sink, a refrigerator. The only cooking could be done on the outdoor fire-pit. It was a growing experience for all of us--BUT as good future lawyers, we problem-solved. Rocks and sticks served as grilling utensils, various layers of aluminum foil aided our breakfast creation.

That doesn't include all the trips to the park...all the family date nights of watching movies...all the evenings of not doing anything at all...

It's been quite the month, and I am trying to savor every moment of it. Cause I know all of the sudden I will wake up and "Whoa" summer is over and the grind of school begins.
