can't keep up

I know I have not kept my word at updating our blog. Sorry! A lot has happened since my last update so I will try to catch anyone who reads this up:

• I started work at Kmart, it's been a good experience and I am getting more and more confident. 
• Sandro and I have started to entertain the idea of buying a house. It's still in the "it's possible" stage but all the same I hope that when we move out of our current rental that we move into our very own home! 
• We spent friday night at the upper South Carolina state fair. It was small, but I had a good time. I probably spent 5 bucks on animal food for the petting zoo. There is just a thrill to touching and feeding llamas, camels, donkeys, emus, elephants, ponies, potbelly pigs. Sandro wasn't nearly as interested as I was haha..
  
• We also went to a demolition derby at the fair. I have never been to one, but I really really enjoyed it! The whole crowd was oohing and aaahing at particularly bad crashes. It makes your average fender bender look like nothing!!
• Last Tuesday we had to put Cinnamon down. She was a good cat and a good friend.. I had her since I was 9 years old. It was a very hard thing to do but it was time.  I've included some photos of her below.

Rest in peace Cinnamon. We love and miss you!

So many things...

Admittedly I've neglected this blog pretty badly so far. I haven't even told many people about it because I'm not very good at updating it- but I will do my best to update at least once a week from now on!

There is a lot to update on! On July 4th, Sandro and I celebrated our first wedding anniversary by driving up to Asheville, NC (which is an amazingly fun city). We stayed in a swanky hotel and then rubbed elbows with the rich at a BBQ on the Biltmore estate. They served huge angus burgers, oysters, shrimp, roasted chicken, free drinks and great desserts! We listened to live music, then sprawled out on the lawns on picnic blankets and watched their fireworks display! It was amazing and I couldn't have asked for anything better! Here are the photos:

What a weekend!

Guess who.....

GOT NEW GLASSES?! :-D




yay! what do yo think?

updates

Well well well. I have been meaning to come on here and have a big meaningful update about all the exciting things going on in my life BUT I just haven't had the inspiration. So you will have to do with bulletin updates :)

-On thursday we found that our tv, wii, playstation, and two hard drives were not working... we had a bad lightening storm the night before and we just assumed that they were fried. HOWEVER Sandro had the genius idea to unplug the previously mentioned electronics from the surge protector and see if they work alone..... WHICH THEY DID!!! The surge protector we had been swearing out (because we thought it failed) worked!! It fried the surge protector and nothing else. Praise be!

-Sandro and I just spent the weekend with my dad. It was pretty low-key but really relaxing and good! We went to see that new Star Trek movie which they were both excited to see. I have never gotten into the whole Star trek/wars world but I have to say it was a good movie! It was entertaining! We got to see uncle Charlie and Grandma so that was great! The only downer was that we had to get two new tires for the mazda unexpectedly... oh well could be worse....

- Work is good. not much going on there...

-Sandro and I are taking a vacation later this month to go to Iowa/Illinois to see the Jankovic side of the family and also to catch up with some of our buddies.. I'm really excited! It will be nice to see Zrinka and Miro and I'm also I'm excited to see the Jen's and meet their boyfriends. It should be a great weekend!
