This weekend was just a fun "summer weekend". It started Thursday afternoon when my friend and I went "canoe-ing". The water was beautiful we just got to relax under the hot summer sun talking about our futures and reminiscing on our past. Friday night my "wifey" aka my best friend and I went to the Eric Church concert. It was absolutely the best, most fun concert I have EVER been to. Eric Church was a GREAT performer and the crowd was awesome. I met quite a few people but also knew many people that attended the concert. It was a wild and fun night!
For the rest of the weekend, I spent it with my younger cousins. Four boys, ages 12, 13,14, and 15. They were quite the entertainment. I took them canoe-ing, we rented movies, got ice cream, went go karting, and went bowling. They are a happy bunch and it was fun spending time with family. Two of the boys are from Omaha so we are trying to show them a good "Kearney time" while they are here. We have plans for the whole week!:) Hopefully I can keep up with these boys.
The only down side of this weekend was that my sister, brother-in-law, and niece were out of town. They had such a great time on their vacation but I have missed my niece wayyy to much! I can't handle that. :)
It was a weekend of friends, family, blue skies, summer stars, and laughs. Hope the rest of the summer continues to be as great.
Cherish these barefoot blue jean nights:)

Just Remember
This weekend one of my best friends got in a car accident. She is very fortunate and did not get too injured. She was definitely in the arms of God. It just made me realize that even though the summer life is exciting and fun, we still need to take caution while having fun and always remind those we love how much they mean to us.
Other than that, my weekend was pretty eventful!! Saturday night I served a close friend's 40th birthday party. This lady is one of a kind and absolutely fantastic. The way she lives life is amazing and she deserved such a great party. After the party, my friends and I went to Cruise Night (an annual event where college students party and others show off their old cars). It was pretty wild but definetly a good time seeing all my friends from high school and college!! Sunday afternoon I took my younger cousin canoeing at a nearby lake--it was quite the adventure!
With the ups and downs and excitments of summer, just remember to be thankful for what we have in our lives!

Summer Days
Wow--this heat is something else. But I LOVE it. The summer sunshine. Kids in swimsuits. Lemonade stands. Bike rides. Long runs. Pools. Windows down. Music loud. Water fights. Ice Cream dates. Sexy guys. Tan lines. What's not to love about this weather? (besides broken A/C units) I don't know what it is; but something about the sun shining just inspires me to get up and make the best out of life.
I spent the beautiful day outdoors with my younger cousin today. We went on a 6mile bike ride. We followed a trail next to a lake, it was so pretty!....there were also MANY MANY hills. After that we washed my car, which was quite the epic fail and we ended up going through a real car wash right after:)
Hope tomorrow is just as beautiful! Enjoy the weather...soak up the sun & all the fun!

Just a start...
I've been debating whether or not to start a blog for a few months now. I've had a lot of people telling me I should, but now I am breaking down my walls and we'll see what happens.
It is 12:50am. Usually I am in bed now; however, I was talking to a friend and was about to go to sleep with a smile on my face. It made me realize how good life is right now. Today I went to the gym and had a great workout, then went to church with my family, went to my cousin's surprise birthday party, and then hung out with a close friend. It was a great day that made me realize how great things have been for me. I can only pray that my life continues to stay so blessed.
We often take for granted the lives we have. But remember to stop and look around, things could be a lot worse.
