BIRTHDAY!

I completely forgot about the important day of the last month--- MY BIRTHDAY! I'm one year closer to being able to rent a car. HA! I spent the day at work, and my mom came to take me out to lunch. It was strange to have to go to work on my birthday, but there was no way around it this year! I felt like a little kid when my mom came, though-- she brought me presents to open every hour of the day, brought me roses and took me for a brief shopping trip, too. Such fun!
That evening, Mike and I went to Greenfield for a birthday celebration, Campbell style. Mom made a delicious steak and twice-baked potato dinner plus my all-time favorite dessert: mom's strawberry cheesecake.



Still the royal birthday treatment!







The McNulty's

Following the Shaver wedding, Mike spent a weekend at the lake with the McNulty men for Sean's bachelor party. I was supposed to go to Missouri for Sarah Hummel (now Young)'s wedding, but work kept me from going. Instead, I finally caught up on housework, etc, before another 2 weeks of 12-hour days began!

One weekend passed, and we headed to Fort Wayne for a party-filled weekend celebrating Jacki & Sean! Friday night was a blast at Opus 24 for the rehearsal dinner, dancing and great food. It ended at a piano bar across the street from our hotel. Saturday was the big day! Beautiful wedding, perfect weather, and handsome groomsmen! :)

Following the wedding, the wedding party and dates took a trolley on a tour of Fort Wayne. For about an hour and a half, we danced, enjoyed some beverages and celebrated the McNulty's! They throw quite the party!!!

Where did the time go?

It's almost the end of June, and our weeks are just flying by!

The end of May was Bob & Lea's wedding. We spent race weekend in Crawfordsville, IN catching up with friends who so graciously fly in for every FIJI brother wedding! Allison Clem & I served as pseudo-wedding planners-- creating bouquets, finishing boutionnieres, running errands, etc. The weekend was crazy! The guys had to stay in the dumpiest "hotel" we've ever seen, while the ladies were pampered at a local B&B:


It was so much fun to see the crew again!
