"If it can be verified, we don't need faith... Faith is for that which lies on the other side of reason. Faith is what makes life bearable, with all its tragedies and ambiguities and sudden, startling joys." — Madeleine L'Engle

Better late than never
Casi and I making lime-margarita chicken kabobs
Even though its taken me almost two weeks, I still need to prove that I actually planned something, and then it happened exactly how I planned it. To be fair, when I say "I," I mean Casi. But thats completely beside the point. From here on out I'll say we.
We decided to host a 4th of July party at Casi's house this year, complete with swimming pool, a friendly bags competition, a cookout, and fireworks. We had a great time (aside from being bombed by Andy's water balloons at various points throughout the day) and enjoyed a relaxing day together.
We were really excited about the cupcakes!
Soon-to-be parents Ted and Sara (we can't wait!)
Two of the sweetest and most eligible bachelorettes in Chicagoland (Casi and Lydia of course!)
Still newlyweds! : )

Summertime
This is why I love summer, and why I love living near Chicago. The girls and I made a day of going to Ravinia a couple weekends ago, and it was heavenly. We relaxed on our blanket, ate lots of food, did plenty of people watching, and listened to the smokey voice of Madeleine Peyroux.
Though we did get a few drops of rain at the end, it was so warm out that we didn't mind a bit.
