summer day

What on earth do you do on a Saturday when you're finally out of college and don't have any homework? Play, of course!

We went to the pool and did some swimming and jumping off the diving board. Michael looks pretty goofy mid-air, doesn't he?

We never seem to stay for longer than an hour since we're both paler than ghosts and can burn easily.

Afterward, we rented "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 1". I loved it, and it just might be my favorite Harry Potter movie yet.

After dinner we went out to shoot some hoops. I'm not nearly as bad at it as I expected, considering that I can't even remember the last time I played basketball. Still, if you were on the opposing team from me, you would definitely be happy.

It was all fun and games until Michael had some bugs fly in his face. Then it was just funny!

Hope your summer is as fun as ours has been so far!

crazy ball

Thursday night, before we gorged ourselves on the delectable cupcakes I talked about in my last post, we decided to get a tiny bit of exercise. Since we only have two catcher's mitts, one person was always left on the sidelines… so you can guess that I was out there taking pictures!

We play a pretty ridiculous-looking game.

Then again, I guess I'm the only one who looks like I'm dancing while throwing the ball.

Lelia and Michael play like normal people.

But I guess it doesn't matter how you play when your friends like you no matter what!

play ball!

Some days, you just have to leave all the work behind and spend time with your best friend.

Today we went for a drive (yes, I was driving… don't start screaming in terror or anything!). We went to the furniture store just to walk around and fantasize about what we would buy if we were actually shopping! It is a bit of a relief to know that we have similar tastes in furniture, though…

Then we went to Dairy Queen to get Blizzards! If you know me, you already know that I chose… chocolate! with little chocolate candies in it, of course. We also went to Target to pick up a baseball glove for me!

He said I played better than he expected, which probably means he thought I'd give him a concussion or something. All's well that ends well.
