Week Twenty-Six

We went camping together for the first time. It “monsooned” while we were there so we had to come back a day early. It was just so nice to get away from technology- even if it was only for a day. We went with Kayla, Chris, and the kids. It was fun--- even with the rain. Next time I think you and I should find a place to camp by ourselves. Hopefully next time I’ll get to actually canoe!

Yesterday we celebrated being married for six months. We went to the Dave Matthews Band concert in Charlotte. It was AMAZING. He opened with “Satellite” and then immediately played “Ants” afterward. It was our first time seeing DMB in concert and the first concert we’ve gone to together. It was also our first mini-road trip. It was so much fun. Going to that concert just felt like being surrounded by a bunch of hippie-looking family. Everyone was dancing and high-fiving each other. I couldn’t stop smiling while we were there because there was just such a happy feeling in the air. We will definitely be going to see future shows.

You finally started school this week! We also bought a new car. That relieved so much stress!

Didn’t I just write last week that good things were in the works?!

Things to remember from this week: the rainbow that appeared at the Dave Matthews Band concert and the feel-good feeling of actually getting to go on these adventures together.
