since i've been gone for SO LONG

thought we needed a whole new layout for a fresh start!

boy, summer is here in florida and it is not fooling around!  it was hot hot hot this weekend.  nate and i combatted the heat with a series of indoor activities.  we went to a local brewery (http://www.effinheimerbeer.com/) and had some tasty tasty beer!  then we checked out a new place in downtown clermont - well, new to us anyway.  it's an irish pub and although nate tends to hate irish pubs before he even gives them a chance, this one was great :)


what else... oh!  nate has a new guitar.  it's for playing on the beach and travel in general and is a nice small size (apparently a parlor guitar).  he wasn't sure if he should buy it so i went and got it for him (the guitar store guy wanted to know if i had a sister- ha!)  here he is with it on the beach the day he got it:

also, i'm starting a photography class this week that i'm really excited about.  there's an art school in north orlando that also offers some satellite classes very close to our house- starts tuesday!  i may post some homework here to share :)

we also recently visited cassie, jeff, and cadiem and had a wonderful time!!  i took tons of pictures, of course.  here are a few:

very serious.  ;)

i got cadiem a 'nate' outfit!  how cute is he???
