short summer, travel, school
Haven't updated in forever, so thought I'd write a brief something.
This summer has flown by...been busy with a lot of stuff. Kara has been out of town quite a few weekends with stuff involved with the 3 (!) weddings we're going to in September--apparently girls have a lot more supplemental events besides the big day. Speaking of weddings, we've picked our caterer, most of our menu, and our photographer, and we should have a DJ by the time we go to London.
Which is in a few weeks. We're booked to fly to London on September 11th, which I think is maybe mildly patriotic, and we'll head to Paris for a few days on the 16th. Should be fun. I have a big list of places to go back to in London, and Robin has never been to either city, so it will be neat to introduce somebody to what it's like across the pond.
In other travel news we spent Saturday/Sunday of this past weekend at a friend's rental house in Newport, RI. We usually just go up to Rockport, which is neat, but it's also nice to go someplace new and different when heading off for a beach weekend.
The house is also mostly painted. I finished the living room the other week, and added some shelves as well. Right now we're trying to figure out what to do about fixing up the kitchen. It looks like we'll paint and probably get a kitchen cart sometime in the fall.
Nothing too exciting. School starts up again...next week? How did that happen?
