Excuses

The last couple weeks have been fantastic. 

The 4th of July was awesome.

Not only did Emily and I wear these GEMS(mine was a gift from her for spending 8 hours painting her house)  to the parade, 

I hosted a 4th of July/Birthday party for my FIL(father-in-law).

The best part?

We sat on lawn chairs and watched the fireworks from my front yard. 

Excellent.

As for the other 14 days that have been un{blog}-accounted for??

Yes, I have been playing this stupid game obsessively.

I am horrible at it. 

I have yet to win one game.

But it is so fun!

If you haven't played, DO IT.

It is basically Scrabble.

Other things that I have been up to?

Running. Alot.

Pulling weeds.

Couponing.

Nephews.

Test driving/buying a new car.

Cleaning the garage now that Emily's crap is out of it.

(look)

Having allergic reactions to laundry soap in incredibly awkward places.

Yeah...life is good.

PS-I turn 25 on Saturday.
