Summer is approaching and things are getting busy as usual. The weather in Idaho isn't really reflecting what most would think of as summer. Everything is so green here right now and the river is fast and high due to all the excess rain we have been getting. I love the rain, but I am ready to put my shorts on and get a suntan.
Monday is Justin's 25th birthday. We had a barbeque at Freeman Park this weekend with family to celebrate. It was nice to see everyone and be together. Justin and I are officially celebrating his birthday on Tuesday as we both have the day off. He is going to teach me how to fly fish, which I am super excited for. I have already tied my first fly! That was pretty fun and crafty. I think fly fishing is a beautiful and artistic sport and I am very eager to learn. If anything else, it will be really nice to have a day alone with my husband on the lake. Seems like we don't get too much time for stuff like that anymore!
My darling sister in law, Alesha, has gotten engaged! I am so happy for her. She is truly a doll. She asked me to plan her bridal shower this week, so that has been on my mind as well. There are so many cute ideas out there. Google has been my friend! I have never planned a bridal shower before, so this is definitely a first. I think we will have a good time, though. I just hope I don't disappoint her, I want her to have a great time! I am honored that she asked me and I am grateful that I can do this for her before she becomes a Mrs!
Today I am just trying to relax. There is a Keeping up with the Kardashians marathon on right now, so that's what I'm up to at the moment. I'm almost done with another book, so hopefully I'll get that finished before the weekend is over. I have read a couple of books lately. The most recent that I finished was Shiver. It was about a girl that was attacked by wolves when she was young and the pack that resides in the forest just beyond her backyard. It was OK, a little disappointing and slow, though. I also read the first Vampire Academy book, which was really good. I have moved onto the second, called Frostbitten and I'm almost finished. I really like it as well.
However, my favorite book that I have read this spring and probably for quite a while is The Hunger Games. If you haven't read it, I really would recommend it. It was absolutely amazing. I can't wait to read Catching Fire, the sequel.
