Long Time....

Sorry All,

It's been way too long since i've blogged. my bad. i hope you don't mind i'm not using proper grammar, such as capital i's, but i'm too used to auto-correct so i'm not worrying about it, i hope it's not a big deal.

anyway, a lot has happened since my last post. mainly 2 things. 1) i turned 25. yeah. that's a big one. and 2) my brother had knee surgery, finally. so here goes:

1) a few weeks ago, on May 9, it was my birthday. first off, thanks to everybody who called, emailed, texted, any sort of way of wishing me a happy birthday. i really appreciate all of it. the weekend was really nice actually. friday night Courtney came down to hang out, so we ate some delicious french dip sandwiches from Bandera's and then watched the Giants game. went to bed early ish that night which was nice and we were well rested for the big saturday. After breakfast Courtney and I took a walk to talk about life. It was really nice and i think we're in a good place right now. After that we just hung out back at home with Erik and the family, some people stopped by and it was a very relaxing day overall. For dinner we had a nice steak dinner, just the family, and ended up staying in that night. I didn't feel the need to go out and get wasted just cause it was my birthday, i can do that any weekend night if i want to. anyway thanks again to everybody who was a part of it.

2) Erik came home a few days before my birthday and had surgery the day before, Friday the 8th. Unfortunately he had to stay in the hospital that night but he was hope pretty early Saturday and was recovering on the couch. he is currently still there. his knee has gotten a lot better but it has been pretty rough for the last 10 days or so. he won't be able to walk on it for another month or so i think, but everything went well and it should heal nicely.

*) other stuff going on:
-went to the giants game sunday night, that was awesome. Cain pitched great and even broke up a double play which was sweet. we sat in the Arcade which actually turned out pretty well. so that was fun.

-we're heading up to the cabin this coming weekend for our annual clean up weekend. we have to rake all the pine needles around the cabin, so we're doing a bunch of more work as well. we have to replace the downstairs door, power wash the deck, fix some insulation, etc. we have a good group coming up to help so thanks to those people in advance, it should be a good time.

-work right now is really busy and long, so that's not much fun, but i'm still loving it and am happy to be there. it's mainly just busy because other people are out on vacation and such, but it's not bad helping out. just a little more tired than usual when i get home everyday.

-Bryan and i are working more on moving out. picked up a couch over the weekend that will fit nicely into our new place. started talking about tv's and made a list of other things we'll need to take care of when the time comes. that time will be july.

well i think that's it. if i forgot anything i'll write some more but i can't at the moment. feel free to respond or comment if you have any questions about anything or want to hear about anything. take care.
