Summer time!

Yes, it is officially here...summer vacation! Our last day of being at school was last Tuesday for post-planning a.k.a. sit around and do nothing because we've moved all of our stuff to the middle of the room. I have pretty much been cleaning around the house and getting ready for my other "school" to start up. Our time this weekend consisted of un-clogging the left side of the house's gutter in the back. It was completely clogged up with leaves and debris since we don't have gutter guards on the roof and we had to dig up the drain pipe under our retaining wall AND freshly planted garden. It was so hot outside...poor Dallas spent forever trying to find the clog and on Sunday we fixed it. One of the next big investments: gutter guards!!


My classes for UGA start up next Monday! I am taking 3: one online in June, one in Athens in June and one in Athens in July. There's only 10 in the program, so I'm hoping to be done by next August. Athens is such a pretty town too, I had to go last Wednesday to get my parking permit and i.d. card made. I will definitely be hoofing it to class this summer (and up a humongous hill) but when school starts back up in the Fall, I'm definitely getting a spot right next to my building or close to it. As for Dallas, he is in week #15 right now....only 6 more to go! We can see the light at the end of the tunnel....

My and Dallas's 3rd wedding anniversary was last Wednesday. We went out to Ted's Montana Grill (our favorite restaurant!) and celebrated by getting each other small gifts this year...we usually outdo it and buy super expensive stuff (i.e. a fence :]). Dallas got me a simplehuman stainless steel trash can for the kitchen. Some may say, what? a trash can? but this is one that Moe canNOT get into at all! Whenever we leave him out he goes trash diving and trash is usually all over the kitchen when we get home. But not any more!!! I love it! For Dallas, I have a friend that is building her photography portfolio and agreed to meet us in Downtown Lawrenceville for a photo session! I got Dallas a new shirt and new hair clippers too. Some of the photos I will post below, the preview ones we got last night are so good.....we can't wait to see all of them.
Our favorite one so far is the one of us sitting on a bench in black and white.

These pictures are so GOOD.
I like all of them. The bench one is very nice too. The colors both of you wore went together well and made really good pictures. I can't wait to see all of them. Love you. Mom
