I would like to begin by expressing my astonishment with the number of ladies I went to school with who either have babies or will have babies soon. Did I just not get the memo? I mean, I really don't want the memo right now anyway, but seriously! What is with all of these well adjusted people having babies?

You may not know this about me, but I am in a perpetual state of bruised-ness. When one starts healing, I get another! This weekend's came in the form of a three foot by 2 1/2 foot box filled with an unassembled barbecue pit falling on my shin from the back of my SUV. I now have a hideous and huge green bruise that takes up most of the front of my leg from the knee down. Conveniently enough, I have accessorized with a much smaller but still obnoxious purple bruise on my knee cap -- w00t!

Otherwise -- this weekend was god-awful fantastic! Just ridiculously awesome in pretty much every way. We invited my family over on Saturday for a Father's Day bbq with aforementioned killer grill which was hugely successful. I made fresh lemonade and was a hostess and it was all very exciting! We also met our neighbor across the street, Clarence. He has lived there since 1967 and he wears a straw hat and an old man cowboy shirt. I love him.

Yesterday, he brought us homemade icecream and it just illustrated what I have been looking for in a home all this time. Having super cute old man neighbors makes my day.

Also of note, we took Rambo for a walk last night and the weather was beautiful and all of the sprinklers in the yards and neighborly people waving made me swoon.

Yay for being REAL homeowners with our awesome entertaining house!
