1. Remember the baby shower I blogged about back in April?  Well, baby bear Brandon was born on June 11 and here’s a couple pictures for you to ooh and aah over!

I love his facial expression in the first one (teehee!) and you can tell he will be such a HANDSOME boy in the second one!

2. I got my first spray tan ever last Wednesday!  I love how it turned out, but was a little disappointed that I couldn’t work out that night (or shower)… yea I smelled for a day.  The color didn’t really come off on my clothes or sheets or anything but when I did shower, the water was a little orange and the color settled in some more and looked real natural and  good after that!

3. Hands down, summer is my favorite season ever… mostly because I can wear dresses and sandals to my hearts’ content!  However, mosquito bites are really quite a bummer, last week I got 7 bites in 2 days, ugh.  One time when I went to Taiwan over the summer, I had 40 mosquito bites at one time, I kid you not.  I also have a real problem of scratching them until they scar… What kinds of lotions/ointments do you use to get rid tame the itch??

4. We sold Marv’s 16 year old baby – the red Toyota Corolla – to someone whose car recently got flooded in the Tennessee floods.  Marv’s a little sad to let the car go, but it was a necessary move to pay for the carpet in our basement!  And plus… there wasn’t a need to have three cars and three car insurances.

5. We just flew back from San Francisco on a red eye flight because we didn’t want to use up any vacation days.  Although it was quite brutal, we’re trying to save up days for a possible Australian vacation next year!  🙂
