Sharon and Eniwo's Wedding
My best friend's wedding is definitely at the top of my list of things I'm looking forward to this summer. The wedding is going to be absolutely spectacular, and seeing her and Wo getting married is going to be the most monumental day in her life, and I couldn't be happier to be standing up with her on this special day.
Bridesmaid Dress Fitting
Can't wait to get that hem shortened, it's like 3 inches too long!
Getting back into the Gym and Losing 15 Pounds by Sharon's Wedding
Ok, I've been using the "busy with school, finals, and work" excuse far too often to talk myself out of having time for the gym. Come tomorrow, I am going to be MAKING time! I am also going to start weight watchers again, it worked for me before and it'll work again! I just need to commit myself fully to see the results, and with frequent visits to the gym on a weekly basis, I am hoping to be down 15 pound by Sharon's wedding. More would of course be better, but I want to set a realistic goal for myself in the 2 1/2 month time fram that I'm working with here.
Sunshine and Runs Outside
The sun has finally decided to make it's appearance here in Alaska, after setting record cold temperatures in April. Seriously, it felt like winter would NEVER end. Yuck. Thankfully, the weather in May has been sunny and gorgeous and the snow is starting to melt fast. Sharon and I have decided that we want to go on runs this summer, a way to exercise together in preparation for the wedding and getting to spend time outside. I have never liked running, but what it comes down to is that running is the best cardio and full body workout, so I am determined to learn to love it.
Baseball
Baseball, baseball, baseball. This is what consumes Andrew and his family's lives all summer. Matthew, Andrew's little brother, is playing for the Goldpanners this summer, so there will be a lot of time spent watching his games. In addition, Andrew umpires all summer long and there are many nights that I go and watch the game he is umping, just to be able to chit chat with him between innings...and he uses me to get him gatorades :) Plus, he looks good doing it!
Family Visits
It seems like summertime is the only time when family likes to visit us here in Fairbanks. Completely understandable, however. My Aunt Penny and Uncle Chuck are coming up in early June, from Georgia and they are so much fun! More family for Andrew to meet :) Another plus side, is that my aunt and uncles who snowbird in the winter are back in Fairbanks for the summer months. It's crazy how much you learn to miss these people year round, when you've grown up seeing them so frequently. Granny is coming back! I think...she changes her mind pretty frequently about coming up to Fairbanks, but I hope she does, I miss all our late night card games and having her make yummy meals almost daily.
