The shortest and longest summer ever (part 1)

Despite being my longest summer break ever (May 10 - September 13th), I can't believe how terribly quickly this summer is flying by! Here are some pictures to hit the highlights so far.


Karen's wedding in Buffalo! So nice to see her again.
Elise and I took a very random trip to Norwalk for some Shakespeare on the Sound, outdoor theater.
Steve and I spent the 4th of July weekend in Otis, Mass. with a bunch of the Parlos+ family.
Kate's wedding shower was on July 11th. Elise and I are excited about having another sister!

Steve and I took a spontaneous trip to Boston to visit his friend's church. It happened to be when the tall ships were in town. We took a lovely sunset harbor cruise!




We spent a lovely weekend in Newport, Rhode Island. Steve showed me his old apartment (from his days stationed there in the Coast Guard) and we read for a while in Breton Reef park while lots of people flew kites. We decided I should grow up to be an economics professor at Salve Regina so we can more there.

I'm finally starting to prepare for England (packing, buying stuff, etc.) I'm finishing up my research with Susan Randolph and hopefully I'll have a chance to skim my old textbooks before I set off on my next great adventure. I'll try to put pictures up of the coming month and a half (California, Steve's birthday, Steve & Kate's wedding, my birthday... crazy but good!)
