My sister got married! Her and her husband are a super adorable couple. The wedding was perfect - it was beautiful, it was small, and it was relatively short (for the sake of my feet at least b/c I totally picked the wrong shoes to wear). The wedding party as a whole had a great sense of humor which we all managed to reign in for the actual ceremony -- for the rehearsal not so much. The pastor literally said "I really worry about all of you getting through this tomorrow." She was just a bit too serious, but really nice and she did a good job. The wedding photographer has a whole series of hilarious pictures that I can't wait to see!
Two of my oldest friends had babies over the summer so I got visit with all of them for a few days, which was really nice especially since I don't know when I'll see them again. Both of the babies are boys and both are adorable. N. is about 3 months old and has a precious smile. J. is soo tiny I was afraid to hold him at first, but he makes the funniest faces - I have a feeling he is going to be a hilarious child.
Also while at home I had my annual sno-ball. This time it was mango w/condensed milk. Actually its good I wasn't down there longer b/c I might have gained 10 pounds from eating those things. I enjoyed lots of fresh vegetables as my dad decided to do a garden this year. He used to do one every year, but hadn't been recently. I ate probably a cucumber a day and way too much creamed corn.
In other news, I still have to pack. I am very bad at this obviously. Today I sorted through my books and I'm determined to get rid of half of them, but that still leaves me w/over 200! Oh and I found out that I will be going to Ukraine in December. Hurray!! I might actually finish this graduate program.
