Yesterday was a busy day so I did not have time to blog until this morning. I have to go get a blood test this morning so I am trying my hardest not to eat anything until 8...that's tough for me! haha. I finished up with one of my tutoring kiddos yesterday so I received a little gift.

I used to really not be a flowers person, but with all these weddings I've been acquiring a lot of flowers this summer and I am really starting to enjoy having them around. I am also getting more informed about different flowers and starting to have favorites, including basically anything pink especially roses and zinnias. Although they were not pink I did get orange roses and zinnias in my flowers. Plus Eric was happy because he loves hydrangeas. How can you not really?

Last night Eric and I went to the Red Sox game with my parents. We hadn't been since June and we saw an awesome game. At the beginning there was a tribute to Ted Kennedy, with a moment of silence.


It was cool too because all the players came out. You almost never see that except on opening day.


Obviously since I live in Massachusetts, the Kennedy's are a big deal up here and of course they are big Red Sox fans. Also, every time they show Hyannisport on the news, that is basically a five minute drive from my place at the Cape. I feel bad for that family who has suffered a lot of loss these past few weeks. I am really not one to get emotional about people I don't know though, I am always amused by the dramatic facebook messages when Michael Jackson and others have passed away the past couple of months. Of course it's sad (in some cases), but I leave true mourning to their family and friends.

The Sox game itself was a great one. We played the White Sox and it was a very close game. All of our runs (3) were scored on home runs. The final home run was scored by Ortiz who hit a walk off homer in the ninth. I love being at exciting games!

Eric and I were also there...I don't know why I wear hats.


So that was fun. Now today is the big day of dress decisions between Dress 1 and Dress 2. I have an appointment at Dress 2 store because they are having a sale this weekend. So...I am either buying one or the other TODAY. I am leaning towards dress two. But first I am going to go to spinning class to get some mental clarity. Or be too exhausted to think about it...
