Lake of the Ozarks and a haircut

On Father's day and the day after, I was able to go with Eric's family to the Lake of the Ozarks  for fishing, swimming, going on a pontoon, and other fun! It was a nice time, and the weather was beautiful! I've also been getting to hang out with Josie periodically, which is great because in about a month she will be married and living in Illinois! I've had lots of fun talks with her lately... it's been good to get to catch up. 

In other news, I got my hair cut shorter yesterday, a little bit longer than shoulder length. My hair feels much softer, and it looks better in a ponytail! It hasn't been since middle school that my hair has been this short. I can't wait for Eric to see it! I have two years to grow it all out again anyway.

Birthday Stuff

Well, on Monday June 6th I left my teenage years and turned 20. I celebrated with my family and Eric by getting a swimsuit, and going to St. Louis to the Zoo, the Basilica, and the Chesterfield Cheesecake Factory. The night of my actual birthday we went to Beks and had the awesome Artichoke Dip that I love.

On Wednesday, when Eric had to leave :(, we had Olivia's friend Dustin over. The next day, Alex and Sam came over and we went swimming in the pool and had a little backyard camp fire. Then on Friday, we went to the Steam Punk thing, where poor Olivia got stung by a huge hornet and we had to leave, even though she had spent lots of time and money making very creative costumes for the festival.

I've been reading a book that Eric's lent me, Bob Bennett's "Leap of Faith". It's pretty good, it's just hard to find enough time/privacy to read it sometimes. Anyway, tomorrow or the next day I'm going to hang out with Josie. I think that'll be fun :)

Until next time,
