I am finishing up my last week at the Westonka Pool where I have supervised their swimming lessons this summer. After that, I will start getting my office ready at Wayzata West Middle School and I have a few days of training before the wedding. I am really looking forward to going back to Wayzata. I have packed up all my office stuff and have it all ready to go!
Nick has been busy with work. He has not had to travel too much this summer which I have appreciated. Last week, he had to go to Chicago for a few days, but I don't think he travels again until after the big day, so that's GREAT for me! :)
Tonight, one of my Michigan friends, Sam Thorpe drove through on her way back to MI from her internship on the West coast. She couldn't stay long, but it was SO FUN to have dinner with her! It made me miss all my Michigan friends. So, Michigan friends, if you are reading this, I love you and miss you!!!
Our summer softball season is coming to a close. This Friday is our last game. We have done okay this season and had a lot of fun with our friends! Fall ball starts August 19 so we don't get any time off in between. It's a great excuse to get together with our friends every Friday so I can't complain too much!!!
We have also made time to go out to Lake Waconia near our house for a few fishing trips. We haven't had much luck, but it has been nice to get out of the house and enjoy some time together. Last time we went, I had my nose stuck in a book most of the time, but I did manage to catch one [little teeny] sunfish.
Oh yeah - I did something exciting! This is somewhat wedding related, though...My bff Sheila and my sister LeeAnn threw me an AWESOME bachelorette party!!! We did a pedal pub in downtown Minneapolis and then went out dancing until the wee hours. It was SO much fun! The pedal pub is basically a bar on wheels and you have to pedal the thing around. Of course you have a driver that steers you around, and you bring your own beverages or food or whatever. It was a BLAST! Here are a few photos (courtesy of Kelsey Sparks)...

At the bar with my girls! :) Aren't our shirts ADORABLE?! Thanks Sheila! I think LeeAnn and I look alike in this picture, too. Funny how that happens sometimes. |
Pedaling!!! |
