This summer seems like it is flying by. I was looking at the calendar the other day and I literally can't believe that events I thought would take forever to get here, are within a few short days. Fourth of July was a ton of fun this summer, seeing as I got to spend so much time with family. :) I've also been able to spend some of my time reading books I have had sitting around for a while. I also forget how much I enjoy reading until I am finally able to dive in again. This summer has been a low key one so far, but I think I like it that way. I enjoy having my few events of the summer, but I also really enjoy my time to just sit back and relax.
Yesterday I took Jacob, Lauren, and Melody to the movie theater. Carmike Cinemas has $1 kid movies on Thursday, so we went and saw Monsters vs. Aliens. The movie was cute and I just love hearing the kids' conversation on the way to the theater, not to mention them singing their favorite songs. Poor Melody though was exhausted and cold. Near the end of the movie she came and sat on my lap to warm up, and next thing I know her head is slowly bobbing down, and she is completely out. She didn't wake up until the end when all of the kids starting clapping. Then later when I asked her what her favorite part was she told me that it was when the girl saved the day....a part she totally missed. :) I guess children movies are pretty predictable though.
Today I am leaving for Schaumburg to visit with Kate and Sarah. I am so excited to see them. I can't believe that we have gone so long without really talking, when we used to see each other every day. Not only will it be great to catch up, but I can't wait to eat some Maggianos and go shopping for our apartment.
I also have some really exciting news! I finally have enough money for England! I have been saving like crazy but have finally made it! Now I just have to hope that nothing major happens that will cause me too much money. I am really getting excited for England. I can't believe it is less than five months away.
