Good-bye July

It's crazy to think its the last day of July! One month of summer. One month to exhaust all of the fun activities of summer. One month to enjoy the true warmth and heat that Wisconsin has to offer. And August is going to be a great one. More festivals. More family time. And of course the big 2-5 for me!

It's time to say goodbye to July. Time to recap on some of the highlights of the month.

*I moved into my new place. Which has been nothing short of enjoyable. What a blessing it has been to have these two great people in my life.

*4th of July celebrations were spent with boy's family. Plenty of time out in the sun and beach. First time at the Rosebud Theater and Il Mito.

*Polish Fest, Festa Italiana and Germanfest with the boy. All very funny and all had delicious food. Nothing beat having authentic cuisine.

*Brady Street Festival- for those of you who don't know, Brady Street is the main street on the east side of MKE. It is very bohemian/hippie chic. There are lots of eclectic bars and restaurants. The festival was a one day event with local bands and local food. With lots of uniquely dressed people and plenty of college students.

*One week of sizzling hot and humid weather turned very quickly into one of the coldest weekends I can recall for a July.

*Dinner with my family, got to see my dad for the first time in over a year and my Uncle Martin who lives in New Hampshire. My dad is moving back to WI but about 4 hours north of me.

*Car troubles...got to drop about $500 to get it fixed.

*Hours being cut at work, sucked. But God somehow has his way of showing whats best. And now I'm going to be working 2 jobs. Bringing an extra $600/month.

Overall, a month full of ups and downs. A month definitely of learning and growing. I gained a lot of patience and trust. I'm looking forward to what August has to bring. I hope its nothing short of awesome!

Peace&Love
