Megan and Joss

Jennifer, Patrick's sister, came over for dinner and to check out the new house tonight. She brought her daughter, Megan, who is about 2 1/2 weeks older than Joss. These two were so funny. They would talk at the other one but the other one would never respond. They did smile at each other lots though. Here are some pictures of them together.









:(

Unfortunately, the wedding planning class that I was going to take this summer was cancelled due to lack of enrollment. :(

At least I will get to spend more time with Patrick and Joslyn and get my tuition back.

Exciting Opportunity

Months ago, I emailed several wedding planning companies in the area asking if they had any possible internship opportunities available. They all said no, but that if they heard of anything that they would let me know about.

Well, the other day I received an email from one of the ladies that I had contacted. It wasn't an internship, but it was an 8 week course at the community college that teaches you "everything you need to know to become a wedding planner". You also become a certified wedding planner through this class.

So, after talking it over with Patrick, we decided to go for it. I start classes on Monday and they will be finished July 27th. Sixteen nights and I'll be a certified wedding planner.

We are hoping that this class will help me to find a job that can count as my senior internship with ASU so I can finally graduate!

Holding Her Own

Joslyn has been working on holding her bottle, which can be frustrating because she usually just ends up pulling it out of her mouth. However, she does really well toward the end of the bottle when it is lighter, as long as she is still hungry.



Bumbo

Joslyn has what is called a "Bumbo". It is a little chair that is supposed to help them with sitting. She loves to sit in it. The first time I put her in it she laughed and smiled the whole time. I think she likes being able to see things. She definitely loves sitting up.

Patrick and Joss

Here are some pictures of Joslyn and Patrick hanging out on the couch last night.









Memorial Day BBQ and Water Fight

For Memorial Day this year my family got together at my parents house for a BBQ and some fun in the water. They set up a slip 'n' slide and a small swimming pool. Then the water guns came out and the adults got into a water fight. When Ben, who started the fight, decided to go inside the house for safety, the other males made plans to storm the house and drag Ben out kicking and screaming. It was pretty hilarious. Here are some pictures. I can't get the video of the attack to upload properly so I will have to try again later.
