At the beginning of August, we went to Medora with T's fam. We had a blast and were pleasantly surprised that Goo did really well in the car - sleeping from Fargo to Bismark both ways - we love that kid! We were a little squished in the Prius ... but more on that later.
I took a few extra days off and painted Goo's room and our master bath ...

We spent a couple of weekends doing respite for my parents foster kids, and got to host a little piece of my "little" brother B's 13th birthday party.
At the end of August, I spent the weekend with the class of 1999 - can you belive it's been 10 years already?! We had a dinner/bonfire Friday night and spent Saturday with kids and spouses - we hit the zoo and grilled. Fun times, fun times ...
Finally, the Tuesday after the reunion I had an interview for a promotion I REALLY wanted at work. Later that day we went to the walk in - did you know you can get swimmers ear without actually swimming? And that 4 molars coming in at the same time = a really cranky baby? Poor guy.
Thursday of that week (our day off from the walk-in) we drove to Wahpeton and picked up our "new ride" - my mom's mini-van. I'm offically a soccer mom. :)
Friday we went back to the walk-in, sold the Prius, and I got the call that I got the job! That afternoon, T and I drove to Grand Forks and picked up my favorite mother-in-law who spent the weekend with me and Goo while T and his Dad played in a golf tournament. Thankfully, Goo was feeling much better by this point, so we celebrated and shopped till we dropped.
Last weekend (Hey! I'm almost caught up!) T's brother and his family came for a visit, and my friend K, her sister and I went to Britney Spears in Grand Forks for her birthday. Crazy show!
This week I started my new job which I LOVE (yay!) and on Friday we headed out of town for T's Dad's "suprise" 50th bday party. Unfortunately, a rouge black baloon ruined the surprise, but we still had lots of fun! I forgot my camera (again) and tried to make up for it by loading you up with pictures at the beginning of this post.
In any case - WOW. We've been busy. Wouldn't have it any other way! I'd close with a promise to post more soon - but, who knows when that will happen again. So instead, I'll leave you with a picture of our cutie-pie Goo snoozing in his carseat on his way home from one of our previously mentioned escapades. 10 points if you can guess which one!!
