Summer is flying by!



Wow, I can't believe tomorrow is the last day of June! The summer is going by so fast at the Grant home. We have been busy every weekend, we haven't even made it to church in over a month.

This past week Michael Jackson died. It was a shock to everyone and the news coverage is still going on! He was so talented, but he was a troubled person. I hope he has now found some peace.

This past weekend Gary and I went to Hot Springs for his family's annual "Grant Getaway." This sign welcomed us when we arrived at the condos. We spent the weekend chatting with the family, and hanging by the pool. The girls even went and got manicures and pedicures. It was good to see the whole Grant clan.

Last night when we got back we went to dinner and a movie with some friends. We saw "The Proposal" with Ryan Reynolds and Sandra Bullock. It was so funny! Loved it!

Today I spent the day cleaning and doing laundry. Being a "grown-up" stinks sometimes. I am realizing paying bills, working, cleaning house and cooking dinner can wear on a person real quick! But, it's life. However, one thing I do enjoy about having our own place is decorating it! This is a painting Kate did for our bedroom recently. It adds so much color to the room!


I registered for my first 5k online tonight. It is on July 11th at the Big Dam Bridge in Little Rock. Brooke and I are preparing for our first half marathon in Memphis, TN in December! A 5k is 10 miles shorter than the 13 mile half marathon, but it is a good start. I am looking forward to pushing myself in a way I never have before.

This is a short week since the salon will be closed Sat. for the 4th of July. I am looking forward to our 3rd weekend in a row in Hot Springs. It has been nice to have a few Saturdays with Gary for a change. This time we will be at my parents condo with Laura and Caleb. It should be a great time! Now I just have to make through the next 4 days...
