Well. I officially only have one weekend left of summer. My last first day of school is next Monday. Craziness!!
Unfortunately, my summer was not spent executing those desired things from my bucket list. Hopefully this will not cause you to think I am one to not follow through with goals and things. I believe that I didn't have as much of an opportunity to cross them off my list solely because of work, summer classes, and trying to fit in everything else in between! I have only read one full book and started another. (Well, I read one for class but we won't allow that to count) I really am disappointed in myself that I couldn't at least do that one. Didn't make it to the Drive-In, didn't get to fish...didn't get to do a meal in my crockpot once a week (think that one might have been a little over zealous, no?).
But just because I didn't complete the things on my bucket list, doesn't mean I didn't enjoy my summer!! Went on an awesome vacation, got to watch my best friend marry her soulmate and had the honor of standing right next to her while she did it, enjoyed many dates with my man, celebrated another year of birth, hung out and caught up with friends, and had many days of relaxation. At times, there was boredom too and that never happens while in school!! It was actually pretty nice.
I also got to complete a few pinterest inspired crafts! I hope to complete a few more and make a whole post dedicated to them, though. :)
But I can't say that I'm sad to see the summer weather go. It was another hot Oklahoma one. And if you know me, you know that I am a fall and winter lover. The cooler temps, the colors, football, holidays...ahh. Bliss. And now that I am in my own house, I have been stalking the aisles of Hobby Lobby already, making a list of all my fall decor must-haves. Some roll their eyes at the fact that in June Hobby Lobby was starting to slowly put out fall and Christmas stuff...but I LOVE it! In fact, September 1st I am planning on putting up some of my fall decor. Gotta soak it all up and use every day to rock it that I can!! ;)
Stay tuned for that pinterest post and hopefully one regarding a little furry friend that we may be getting....!!
