A field trip (literally, for Brian's History of Rock and Roll class) to Hitsville USA and the Motown Museum.
Shopping for the veggie garden with Mom, early summer...narrowly avoided temptation to buy all of the marigolds I could carry.
Chopsticks, the man in my life.
For the 3rd time in 3 years, Erin and I saw the New Kids on the Block in concert. This time, with the Backstreet Boys (not important to us) AND front row (very important to us). We touched Joey and made eye contact with Jordan...but alas, still unable to express his love for me, Donnie did not come close enough. Someday.
Brian and I spent the fourth of July and the following week in Miami, and took our first trip to the Florida Keys. This was the summer of the mojito for us.
Lovers.
Lover.
Tree hugger (not the first time).
The next morning, breakfast at the Six-Toed Cat...
And a trip to Ernest Hemingway's Key West home. A friend had insisted I go and meet the cats, and I was happy to take her suggestion!
Crazy Cat Man
Crazy Cat Lady
I had to chase this handsome face down for some crazy cat love.
And then, some key lime pie perfection...
Bonus: Brian asked me to marry him while we watched the fireworks in Marathon...I said yes (actually, "yeah!" while crying)!
The next morning
Balloons and flowers and signs and homemade mac & cheese were waiting for us when we got home!
Chopsticks and his new little sister, Shinnok.
Roadtrip to Milwaukee for a family reunion! (and my lap in the car)
Antiquing!
Some rings...including a certain beautiful very old diamond...
The wedding planning begins...
And the garden grows!
Really and truly, more random and wedding planning and summer-becomes-autumn-ing to come!
