Here piggy, piggy, piggy!

There really hasn't been much going on in my life since the last time I blogged but I made a deal with HannahLou to post if she posted. She has yet to post but I'm doing it now... mainly so I can win :)

This past week went by both slowly and quickly. There was a lot to get done at work, but it all got done. There was a lot of wonderful weather, but it was well enjoyed. Aside from the migraine I had for four days, things were great.

On Sunday, April & I threw a BBQ for our friends since it felt like we hadn't seen them in a long time. I played Martha while April played Mary, but it was nice to see all of them. Met Melanie's fiance, Matt. He's hilarious. Love him. Got to see Erin and her starting-to-stick-out belly, which got me excited about making something for Baby Rockey. Maybe this? Sans flowers, of course, since we don't know Baby Rockey's gender! All in all the BBQ was great. Would've been better had April's PTboy decided to come... c'est la vie!

Monday the boy took me to the State Fair. Luckily it was GORGEOUS and not all too crowded. Although he didn't plan on having fun, he did. I think the real fun started when we went to watch the Kenai Racing Pigs in all of their glory. Oh was I excited.

We walked around for a few hours, bought lots of good Fair food-- corndogs, cotton candy, funnel cakes, YUM. The boy even bought sheep skin slippers and a -30 sleeping bag for 1/2 off. Pretty sweet deal. We even went against our best judgement to take an overtly cutesy picture:

Tuesday I spent the evening with the kiddos at the Fair to see the band Family Force 5. Pictures to come. The concert wasn't as bad as I expected and I like hanging out with the kiddos so overall, it was a good trip.

Tomorrow my mentee graduates from the Alaska Military Youth Academy. I'm very proud of her for the changes she's made (and continues to make!) in her life. Hopefully I can be a better mentor post-residentcy than before.

Anywho, that's about it. Au revoir!
