Hello Blog World!

This is my first post and I really have nothing fun or exciting to report. This past weekend was tax free weekend, so Dane worked- a lot. He hasn't come home before 9:00 for the past 4 or 5 nights in a row. His salary just isn't worth all the hours! I've said it before and I'm sure I'll say it again- if he doesn't get a bonus this year I will be one mad white woman. If he does, then all the hours are worth it.

Yesterday I went and picked him up from work and we met Beth Anne and Doug and Meredith and Ryan at 518 West for dinner. It was quite yummy and the company can't be beat. :-) Had I not met the 2 of them upon moving here, I would be miserable. They have welcomed me from the day we rolled into town. Y'all mean the world to me! But anyhow, after dinner I dropped Dane back off at work and headed home. Ugh. I can't imagine.

In other news, our good friends Katie and Anthony (who live in Orlando) are tying the knot Labor Day weekend. We are very excited to get to go. We haven't seen them since our own wedding-waaay too long. It will be an outdoor ceremony here . I met Katie through a friend back in 2001. Even though I had just moved to Tallahassee and she had just moved to Orlando, I went and visited her and her roommate (my friend from growing up) as often as I could. There have been many good times had. I think so highly of Katie- she's the type of girl you would love as your best friend and the relationship she and Anthony have is one to be jealous of. It's true. Anyhoo, Dane and I went out for ice cream the other night and right next door was a boutique with the most awesome dress in the window. I'm loving it for their hot-like-Africa wedding at the end of the month. Birds freak me out in real life, but on fabric me likes.

We'll just have to see what it looks like on my pasty white bod. :-) That's all for now!
