where did July go?!!

Excuse me can anyone help me I seem to have misplaced the month of July anyone care to help me find it?
I cannot believe that July has gone so quickly don't misread me I'm thrilled about that it just means I'm one step closer to my favorite time of the year but dang this year needs to slow down it'll be 2011 before we know what hit us.

So since I missed blogging in the month of July almost entirely here's a quick update on my summer.

I had entirely too much fun hanging out with friends on the 4th watching the boys shoot off fireworks and listening to the kiddos ooh and ahh at the pretties

I had a ton of fun at girl's night we ate lasagna and had cake for dessert and sat around just talking it was lovely.

Mr. A and I finally completed the task of refinishing our bedroom dresser and it looks lovely

I got a lot of paint on me and a little on our trim work as we slowly started painting all the trim in our home

I got covered in little turquoise dust particles as the horrible textured turquoise paint in our master bath started coming off

I spent a little time in the pool and got burned to a crisp

I enjoyed the week of rain and cooler temperatures that gave me just a taste of my fave season

I weeded flower beds and played with Missy our labrador in the sprinkler while we were trying to water the grass

I spent a week getting trampled on and tackled by kindergartners at Vacation Bible School

I started my 3rd month of teaching cake decorating classes.

and here we are late July it's hot ridiculously so and tonight is cake class then I have to go home and continue my work on wedding cake trials I'm doing for a wedding cake in early September. The trials are necessary to get the shape of the carved cake just right. Tomorrow is Wednesday and mid-week which means movie night with friends, then Thursday we're having dinner with my mom just because she wants to see us :)
Friday brings the weekend closer and we're going to host game night at our house it'll be the first time hosting more than just 1 couple at our house. Then after this weekend we'll wake up only to realize that we only have 1 week left of this dreaded month of ridiculously hot temperatures, and then it'll be August and once August is over it will once again be September my 2nd favorite month of the year :)

Later Alligators.....

Ahhh!!!!!! A kindred fall enthusiast! I just adore fall, and start counting down to it somewhere around June 1st :-) Not too much longer, and we'll be in our glory!
