There are no words to express how much I love the summer!
I love the warmth from the sunshine! I love the return of dear friends from college! I love flip flops! I love camping trips! I love my tan and ultra-blonde hair! I love frisbee in the park! I love all the wedding cake! I love picnics! I love swimming! I love the memories!

Nice pics...I wish there was one with me in it up there but I don't think we've ever been in the same place at the same time in the summer :-(
You don't have to write something controversial to get regular comments...but apparently that's what you have to do to get cowardly, anonymous, ad hominem comments...
Thanks for the support KJ but it's all good. Sometimes those are my favorite kind. :)
I promise to add my favorite pic of you to the next post. :)
Sorry!!! I deleted my comment because it was embarassing! Sometimes I just don't make sense. lol. I should check for spelling and grammar.
ok, woo hoo for pictures, many of which I could recognize!
So out of curiosity I checked my xanga and saw the comment you left me. It made me laugh! You only wish this German-born Mexirican was writing about you, lol. Just kidding! ;)
I hope that you have a great day my friend! :)
Take care!

...btw, while I was lookng at your pics, I saw the one with you and the little boy and I remember that you had that as your xanga profile pic once. This was before I met you and when I had just made my xanga the summer after my freshman year ended. I remember saying, "I guess she's a single mom." lol. Then I joined choir and a whole year later, Heather and I were hanging out and she told me that it was someones nephew, or something like that...cousin? I don't remember. But the point is, he wasn't your son, lol.
I love the summer too. Of course this summer is going to be absolutely crazy for me. It all starts with a lock-in this Friday then Honduras the first week of June. Boy I hope I'm ready.
yeah, I recognized him at the wedding.
