So I got some new summer clothes after I complained so affluently at my last post. After toying with the idea of investing in some brand new, good quality skirts and shirts... I resorted to my good ol' standby, Goodwill. Goodwill always has by husband's blessing ;) Hey, that'd be a cute bumper sticker, wouldn't it?

I also mistakenly bid on an ebay skirt. It was one of those auctions that I really didn't think I would win, and so I bid cheaply, and then three days later I find out that I'm the lucky winner. After I already spent my clothing money at Goodwill. Oops. Sorry honey. Looks like we'll add one more skirt to the new collection. Good thing it was reasonably priced. $24 is more than I usually spend, but it was an Anthropologie skirt that is of fine quality, which I also plan on using as a bridesmaid skirt in my sister's wedding. So, double whammy. (phew)

My sister Carrie had her baby last week! Jonathan Gregory arrived safely into the world, in a much less dramatic birth than his older sister's, thank God. He is a very sweet little boy, very peaceful and dreamy. Unlike his older sister and cousin Froggy, who are bound to give this little boy some trouble ;) hehehe

And it is indeed Anniversary season, as Job and I celebrated our 2nd year anniversary last Tuesday. He's a gem, and I'm continually reminded of that each day, both through my own little epiphanies and friends and family who remind me as well. How fortunate I am.... I thank God, and I thank St. Xenia, who had her hand in it as well. :D Praise God! We celebrated with a dinner out to McMenamin's Mission Theater, which provided us with dinner AND a movie in one go. So, good food and "Blades of Glory" equals a good time by all. Big thanks to Gramma Marmee and Grandpa Greg for taking care of the Mooshball.

I hope you are all well! Ta ta for now :)
