Maybe I'm odd, but I like to look...

Isn't this the most beautiful room you have ever seen?!?! I found this on the pottery barn website. I love it and if I had enough money would have this for my baby room. Did you notice that the curtains and bedding have a Peter Rabbit print on them? I love Peter Rabbit! However, I will probably never have enough money for this room (especially the crib) and that is ok...but I just might want the Peter Rabbit bedding.

I'm not even pregnant, but it is still fun to look!

Actually, I think it was this carpet that really made me go head over heels. It is so perfect for a baby room, boy or girl. In the first picture you can see this all put together wonderfully. I am not sure how they painted those walls, but I would love to try it.

Well, that is pretty much all from me. I fell instantly in love and had to tell someone.

Freshened up the blog

I felt that I had had the previous background for too long and needed somthing new. I like how the blog looks now, but will probably change it in a few months as well.

Tyler and I have been doing great! Tyler has started soccer practice and I am in my first SVU play. We are doing A Midsummer's Night Dream. I have already done this play before and I played Hermia. This time I am just Fairy 2... Oh, well ...I did not expect much as this is my first play and they don't usually give new people good parts. However, I am attempting to be the best Fairy there ever was!

We start school in two weeks and then our lives will get even crazier adding school onto our already busy list. Oh, I forgot to mention that I got a job at SVU's library. I am working there to get work study money. Tyler will hopefully get a job at the tutoring center for work study.

That is pretty much all that has been happening and now I have to go get ready for work!

Vacation: our German guests, Oregon, and the wedding

My good friend Laura, from Germany, came with her boyfriend Simon to visit Tyler and I on the East Coast. We went to New York City, had fun in Virginia, and then Tyler and I flew to Oregon to help out with Jessica and Ricky's wedding. Here are some pictures of the fun times:

New York City:

Sorry this picture is so blurry... but I had to put it on because it was so cool!! This Harry Potter stuff was at the Scholastic store in NYC. They had the Weasley's clock, Harry Potter dolls and much more! So cool... Happy Birthday Harry on July 31st!

Back in Virginia:

Yumm... Slurpees...
Laura and Simon in front of Main Hall at SVU
Laura and I on the footbridge and yes, we did jump off it...
I think it is about 25 ft and a whole lot of fun!

Oregon and the Wedding:

Great picture of Ricky... I laugh every time... I supposed he was very unsure about where and how they wanted their pictures taken, The happy couple outside of the temple Tyler and I as bridesmaid and groomsman....note this is dress Tyler made Jesper (Adam's exchange student from Sweden), Adam, and Laura outside of the temple

Unfortunately, I do not have any pictures of the reception at my parent's house, but it was a beautiful reception.

The Beach:

A couple days after the wedding we decided to head to the beach to relax and get away from the heat in Portland (107 degrees!!) Laura came with us and it was a lot of fun. Laura, Tyler, me and Erik

The beautiful Oregon Coast

We had a great trip and it was wonderful to see family and friends. We are back in Virginia and already busy... I am in a play and Tyler is starting soccer, not to mention we have work and school starts in a month. I will blog again soon and let you all (whoever actually reads this) know what we are up to next!
