It's Almost Over!

Well Summer has come and is almost gone! Pat and I have been staying busy with work and trying to sneak in some time to do the stuff we want to do like go putt-putting, batting cages and a trip but it seems like work takes all of that time away. Pat is still working at the Canal Boat and doing some landscaping. He seems to like his jobs and does get a couple days a week off. I am still at the Warehouse but I have been taking a cut in hours because volleyball has started. Yes I took the job of 7th Grade volleyball coach. I have been going to the high school liftings and open gyms as well as the Jr. High Open Gyms so I have been busy with that. Next week we start camp and the week after that conditioning starts and then we are in full swing. I am really excited to get started and get to work with my girls! I forgot how much I really enjoyed playing volleyball so getting to play in the open gyms has been fun, and made me realize how out of shape I am. Maybe I will be doing some conditioning in a couple weeks too!

We have actually started to do some real planning for the wedding as well. Some of our ideas are going into action. Last Monday Pat and I spent most of the day doing wedding stuff, meeting with photographers, checking out possible locations and getting prices. We got a lot of stuff accomplished but somehow still feel like nothing is done! Thanks to Emily, I think we found a photographer that we both like and hopefully we will be able to book her. I am hopefully going to meet with her soon so we can go over all the preliminary stuff and make sure she is really what we want, then at least that can be checked off the list. I am working on designing the invitations right now because since a lot of the stuff we will be making ourselves I would like to get everything planned so maybe we can find some of the materials on sale or at least get the chance to look around and really get the best deal.

Speaking of weddings....Lora and Phil are engaged!! They have decided to get married in October and have their dream beach wedding. I am so happy for them and can't wait to see it all come together.

This weekend we are headed to Woodville to see Pat's parents. We are planning to go to the Ottawa county fair tomorrow so that should be fun. Then we have to get back on Sunday so Pat can work and Fall Ball is starting so I have a game.

Well that is all I can think of now, here are some pictures from our weekend at the Lake this year
