I'll Do It Later

That's what I think every time I think about blogging lately. I've just not had the blogging bug! Time to get over it, I guess. Or rather, time to get it, again.

Things around here have been hot hot hot. No really--the weather is hot! I finally went out this morning and bought myself a pair of capris so I wouldn't die of heat outside in my jeans.

My family is here in town this week. Well, my parents and my brother Matthew. I worked Monday and Tuesday and now I'm off the rest of the week. Hallelujah!!! My brother is off work today so we're going with them up to Canton, GA to have lunch with some cousins. My landlords are so nice--they let us use the rest of the basement so my parents can stay there while they are here visiting. It works out perfectly. The only thing is, I can't seem to keep my kitchen from getting cluttered up with everyone's stuff and it's driving me nuts!

I can't believe it's almost the 4th of July. Ben and I will be celebrating our 1-year anniversary in about 11 days. It's hard to believe we've been married for a year already. It's flown by, but it's been a lot of fun. I'm looking forward to many more fun, happy years, and a family too, hopefully!

A couple of weeks ago we had a "Southern Family Reunion" for our ward. Lawrenceville Ward was formed 20 years ago, so we had a lovely activity which featured myself, my husband, and our friend Shellie singing "Man of Constant Sorrow" from O\O Brother, Where Art Thou. We were really crazy and weird and so everyone loved it. I wish I'd had someone take pictures. Yeah--we were THAT good ;)

In other news, I bought some basil plants that I repotted and put outside. They are growing beautifully, but I have to water them just about every other day. It's so nice to have fresh basil any time I want it. I can't wait until we have our own place and I can have a real garden!
