Summertime

Ok. So I don't even know where to start. I feel like about a million things have happened/are happening that I feel I need to report on. But for brevity's sake, let's go for a bulleted list.

• I spent the 4th of July in Chicago with my entire family. It was amazing. Sorry, no pictures from this. My sister has these and turns out I haven't really seen her in a while.
• I ran a half marathon the week after Ragnar which actually was really enjoyable, and then I ran a 5k mud run. The result of all this running--my body hurts all the time.

• My friend Maddie and I made the best smores I've ever had. Picture this: fudge stripe cookie, mallow, reese's cup, mallow, another fudge stripe cookie. Yes, it's possible. And yes it's delicious.
• She's back!! Megan Robinson, that is, from her year and a half of serving the Lord in Lubbock, TX. Lee and Ben and I just got back from a surprise visit to her home in Seattle. It was fantastic. She is fantastic.

And...for some reason, blogger hates me right now and the pictures are all weirdly organized, and I just don't have the brainpower to fix it right now. So, use your imagination. I think it's fairly obvious which pictures go with what events. The canoeing and the eating on the curb both happened in Seattle.
