I must admit, life is pretty stinkin' sweet right now. It just seems like things are going great. We have awesome friends who we are getting to know more and more. We are having amazing weather. We love where we live. We have an incredible church. The bookstore is moving along. We have been getitng outside more and more to do things. The mountains are covered in green and the sunshine just really makes them look amazing. Sherri is getting out of a job that she has never really liked. Life is just good. I don't know if I would change things, even if I could. It is really awesome to just be happy. Just look at life and really feel content.
We have a double baby shower tomorrow night with our small group as two of the couples are expecting babies in the next month or so. So the ladies will hang out and do the baby shower stuff inside and the guys will be involved in an intense game of street hoops.
I will begin traveling with work quite a bit over the next couple months. I have trips to Fairbanks, Juneau, Kenai and two Seattle trips. I will be in Seattle on August 22 - 24th and it just so happens that the Mariners are playing the Yankees on thoes days, so I got my tickets and am excited to see the games!!
I have been playing a lot of disc golf lately and I feel like my game has really been improving, which is nice. Also, Sherri and the other wives have been coming with us and walking the course. Its nice to be outside getting exercise.
We are only 46 days away from our 1 year Anniversary!! That is just amazing, the time has really flown by!
Ok, I suppose that I have said enough for now.
Here is a little known Northern fact: In the summer Anchorage is known as the "City of Flowers", because of the long daylight hours the flower displays in Anchorage are amazing. The City of Anchorage has 461 different flower gardens that it maintains. Also, they hang over 1,000 baskets downtown each summer. There are also some awesome private residence gardens as well as the Alaska Botanical Gardens and the Anchorage Garden Society that host several garden events throughout the year.
The picture above is of a small side street in downtown. It shows a couple of the smaller flower beds and also some of the hanging baskets.
