Newest Additions to the Family

I can't decide if my blog title is mean or not :) BUT, before you get the wrong idea, our newest additions to our family are tropical fish!!!! :) Aaron is an AVID tropical fish collector and we unfortunately sold all of his fish when we got married :( We didn't know where we would be living and our first apt. wasn't too pet friendly so we sadly said goodbye to Aaron's fish and all of his tanks and supplies :(

However....we have been on the lookout since finishing our basement and came across a STEAL of a deal this past weekend! We purchased a used 90 gallon tank and Aaron was so excited, he made a shelf for it yesterday and set it all up! All we need now is tropical fish :)

90 gallons all ready to have fish live in it!

One of Aaron's former fish that we're hoping to replace :)

Yea, how exciting! Well, I need to head out..I have teenagers invading my house for the last campfire of the summer!! Have I mentioned how much I love working with teenagers? They are so fun :) Gotta run!

Worlds of Fun= Ummmm...FUN!

We are back from our vacation to Kansas City! It was kind of a last minute deal (deciding like a week before that we wanted to go somewhere close yet fun for our anniversary/vacation). Thursday we spent the whole day at Worlds of Fun theme park and Friday we spent the day at Oceans of Fun waterpark. Honestly, Aaron and I felt like little kids running through the park and we managed to go on every ride except two! It was hysterically fun and a memory that we won't forget :) Our fave ride was The Patriot (those of you who have gone to Six Flags, it's the Batman ride...the track is above you and your feet are dangling the whole time! Ahhh...the best!)

I LOVE rollercoasters!!

So, that was our trip and now we are back for the last two weeks of summer break! We have had such a great summer! I would have to say it has been one of my favorite summers ever because of the quality time we have had with each other, friends, family, etc. It has been so great that I'm extremely sad to see it go! But, this season must come to an end so I will accept...but not for another two weeks :)
