This past weekend was one of those that makes me thankful to have such great friends! Blake and I both still keep in touch with a good number of our friends from high school and I feel like that is somewhat uncommon among our fellow college grads. I once heard that a quality to look for in a guy was someone who still kept in touch with at least one friend from their childhood. It shows that they are loyal and value the blessing of friendship. I think thats awesome and am so glad we can both say we have the best friends ever! Sooo our weekend..!
To start the weekend off, I went to my friend Laura's Southern Living party. She just recently became a consultant and had a cute little fiesta at her house. I snagged a few cute things and one sale. How much better does it get?! Now I have so many ideas of things I want to do in our apartment. Ohhhh to have a real job one day(aka real income)..it will be so nice!
Saturday we woke up bright and early to meet at our friend Michael's house to float the river. Floating is one of my most favorite summer activities because it is just so relaxing and such a great chance to spend some quality time with good friends.

After we spent hours cooking in the sun and floating down the river, along with about a million other people apparently looking for a break from the heat as well, we had dinner in Gruene at the Gristmill. This has been our summer tradition since the summer after senior year of high school and we plan to keep it up for many years to come!
After indulging in my obsession, I mean Chuys, on Sunday, Blake and I headed back to Waco so I could get ready for class to start up again on Monday. woo...
Now anyone who knows me at all, knows that I love me some Harry Potter. I've preordered every book, seen and own all of the movies, and even went to a Harry Potter party at a friends house on the opening night of the 2nd movie (don't judge me). So of course, I have been excited for a long time for July 15. Last week my friend Jessica and I decided that we had to see the midnight showing of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. Therefore, last night I dragged my poor, loving husband along with me to see it. Granted by the time it ended, all I could think about was getting in my bed, I thoroughly enjoyed the movie. Yes, they left out some major parts that would have made the movie even better, but overall I thought it was great. And that Emma Watson is just so dang beautiful!
Well, on that note, I believe its time for me to return to So You Think You Can Dance. (gahhh I wish I were a dancer!)
