Whew! What a busy couple of weeks! Happy Almost First Day of Summer. I guess technically, summer doesn't start until this evening, but it's been in full swing for Derrick and I, and we're enjoying every minute of it!
To start off, last week, we celebrated the birthday of this lovely lady:
My friend, Pauline, celebrated her birthday! We had a fun dinner and Sangrias at Urban Table and it was a great way for the girls to catch up after a couple of weeks.
All the ladies - Me, Morgan, Pauline and Brooke
The birthday girl and Brooke - Loved the books as the restaurant's way of giving you your check. How appropriate for this group.
In other news, the Summer of Music has officially kicked off. We saw the Devil Makes Three at Crossroads a few weeks ago. It was a good show, but it was a little chilly (yes, in early June). I can't remember the last time I've gone to a show and ordered coffee. Oh that's right, because I've never ordered coffee at a show! I mean, who does that? Well, this girl did.
This past weekend, we headed to Topeka to cross off another show on our summer music list at this little gem:
It's the Boobie Trap and it is Topeka's Home of Live Music. It's a small dive bar with four tables, a few chairs, pool tables and an even smaller stage. Even driving up to the place was a little sketch, but once you got past the name, it's outer appearance, the lack of air conditioning and knocked back a few PBRs, it was a lot of fun. Even Derrick's family was with us as well and everyone seemed to have a great time. Thanks to Brooke and Kipp for introducing us to the Trap and hanging out!
We got to spend some time with Derrick's parents for Father's Day in Topeka, then headed to see my folks in Olathe. Everyone was in good spirits and in good health and it was really nice to catch up with family. We are both so blessed to have family close by where we can see them often.
Beasley exhausted after his long weekend.
