Signs of Summer

Summer is finally here! Thank the lord! Warmer temperatures have heated up things over the past few days (after the terrible storms of course). I'm thankful as the better weather definitely affects my mood for the better! We are looking forward to lots of fun this summer with our friends and families.


This past Saturday, our friends Larry & Tricia invited us to attend a Cubs rooftop with a bunch of my friends from the city. Thank you so much for your generosity! It was a perfect day for a game! Of course I did way more talking with everyone then watching. It's always so nice to get everyone together and it makes me very happy to see them all every now and again. I miss seeing them every weekend, but everyone has moved their separate ways and we just don't get to do it as much anymore. It makes me so happy however that we do at least get together when we can. We're hoping to get everyone up to the lake this summer and we will be looking forward to Larry & Tricia's wedding in Philly in September and Dan & Jaime's wedding in Ft. Meyer's Beach in October. At least we know we'll see everyone there!

And of course we had way too much fun!

Sunday we celebrated Father's Day with the Crowley's. We are looking forward to hosting my parents this weekend at the lake and heading to Summerfest in Milwaukee with them and some cousins as well!

Bryon is in LA all week at the HITEC show. We're hoping that he accesses a lot of potential clients and will be well on his way to being swamped with new business!!

XOXOXO

Number 100

Well...well... I just realized that I am about to type our 100th blog! Who would have thought anyone would ever be interested in our life?!?! Go figure.

We've been keeping busy since our return from vacation. Bryon has begun his new job as VP of Operations for Guarded Systems out of Atlanta. So far so good.... he's got a big gig coming up next week at the HITEC show in California. Cross your fingers for him. He's working on getting everything up and going. I have no doubt that he will be successful of course... it is Bryon I am talking about. :)

We've been waiting on summer to get here already. We have so many fun things planned for the summer: lots of time at the lake, several concerts planned, Summerfest, Cubs games, family and friend visits and a big family reunion coming up on the 4th.

Luckily for us, we were blessed with some good weather this weekend. On Saturday, we went with some friends to see Aerosmith and Three Doors Down at Alpine Valley. We had a blast of course as we always do! We stopped by the Owl on the way home to hang out with our favorite bartender Lisa too! On Sunday, we hung out at the beach and barbequed and Bryon took his first dip in the lake of the year. I was too chicken as it was still pretty chilly in my opinion. Next time... but it was a great day. True Blood premiered on Sunday night! My favorite show!!!!!! Is there anyone else out there that loves it?! I've read all the books too... love them!






I began working from home Mondays and Fridays last week so that we would be able to really start living in WI. It was great and I was amazed at how much work I could get done away from the office.

This weekend we are planning on going to a rooftop for the Cubs game on Saturday with a bunch of my old city friends. I can't wait to see everyone. I'll be hoping for good weather. We'll see...

Hopefully there will be something fun to blog about after that!

Sheesh what a boring 100th post! I guess I've lost it! XOXOXO
