August was a whirlwind month full of birthdays, get-togethers and weddings. We had the pleasure of hitting up double-decker wedding celebrations at the Madison Hotel. The first of which, a great friend from way back and her awesome hubs and the 2nd- same place- two weeks later, my sister :) I can't even say with words how much fun I had. As always, she was gorgeous... and it was just a rip roarin good time.
My little niece turned one, and is more precious than ever. I love her to bits.
The house is good... got the roof done. One of those anti-climactic jobs that needed to be done. Finished revamping the dining set (finally), painting the bannister, and even acquired a coffee table! Hoping we can do some more work to the landscaping before the weather turns cold ... a girl can hope....
Spent the month listening to, of course, Future Islands, and the new 'Spoon' album was awesome as well. And I guess my recipe of the month would be this one. Just ask T- he obliged me by eating it 3 nights in a row.
If I had to sum August up in one stand-out thing though, it would be long nightly walks. It was such a great month for walking- perfect temps, new neighborhoods to investigate, a new bird discovery, and... just great conversations :)
Here's the grid you've all been waiting for! (ha) Peace August. You were cooool....
