As Nate so excitedly posted.... Football begins next week
What does that mean to our house?
The end of summer....
Isn't it so strange how you can be so ready for the next season?
You think you want summer forever, then soups, and pumpkins cookies, and CHRISTMAS start sounding fantastic and I'm making Chili in August?
Needless to say... the summer flew past and is just about over (102 today?)
I successfully took pictures of 3 summer events of ours and I MUST post them
So they go as follows:
The Alameda County Fair
It's a big deal. Carni's from all over come for this.
What it meant for us and Jon and Cass was a fantasy of delicious food.
We considered paying the $20 entrance fee the next night just for the corn dogs and snowcones.
We had a blast, Jon won Redford a $200 teddy bear :) , Nate and I sampled every food item we could get our hands on, we met our dream dog (great dane), and we viewed THE ride from Michael Jackson's 'Wonderland Ranch'.
Enough said.
2nd Event: Concerts
Strangely, Nate and I have only been to one concert together?
I love music. Nate loves music. We don't much like the same music.
But we decided Coldplay was mutually enjoyed and made a last minute, 4 hour drive, 'visit', to that show.
The next week we did Kenny Chesney. It was a much more enjoyable event.
Really. I really like that guy.
ADDITIONALLY it was one of the most fun times I have ever had with my man.
A really cheesy/nice/crazy lady who gets her hair blowdryed twice a week at my salon would call it 'a day dipped in gold'
but it was, I enjoyed everything about the event, particularly each my company :)
We also went back to Utah the first week in August but I failed to take any one photo.
So goodbye summer....
I just remember you being longer, more fun, and ending with school clothes
Maybe someday you'll come back for real.
