The Fair...Birthdays...Weddings...etc...

Has it really already been a month since our last post? Unbelieveable. The summer is just flying by. I have been enjoying short work days and short work weeks. Bethany cut back office hours this summer to only Monday-Thursday from 8:30-12. That means I have had a lot of afternoons and evenings free to do other things!

The big thing in my life has been gearing up for the Elkhart County Fair, starting tomorrow. Bethany has a booth in one of the commercial buildings and it is my responsibility. I have been working hard to find volunteers to help man the booth and getting all of our displays ready. I will be living at the fair for the next 9 days so if you are going to be there come talk to me in commercial building F! It will be nice to be out of the office and I just love the fair. Who wouldn't love elephant ears, corn on the cob, country music, rides, and tons of animals! For some reason I always have to twist Seth's arm to get him to go with me!

Seth and I had a chance to go out on the boat with Myron and Sheila for the first time last weekend. It was a super hot day, just perfect for the boat. Myron had bought a new toy and we learned how to kneeboard! We are hoping we'll get a chance to go out again soon.

My sister was home last weekend for her birthday. It was a perfect weekend for lounging by the pool. It was great to see her again and catch up on everything happening in our lives. It was also fun to celebrate her birthday together. We all went out for dinner at Doc Pierce's in South Bend! One of my favorites!

Traci is home getting ready for her wedding next weekend! It has been great to have her home. We have had a chance to hang out! I miss not having her around. I am so excited for her wedding and hopefully seeing lots of old friends from high school.
