yeah, I've been slacking, I know it :-)

So, obviously it's been a long @$$ time since my last post. Daria and I moved into our house on June 8th and basically since then we've been working on it, trying to bring the grass back to life, unpacking all our stuff, setting up the basement, figuring out that we have a gas dryer and you need to have the gas valve turned on for the dryer to get any heat!! :-)

Today with the help of Seth and Dan I'm going to install the swamp cooler!!!! I can't begin to tell you how nice that's going to be, our house has an attic fan currently and a window AC unit in the bedroom, which makes the bedroom the best place to be! With the swamp cooler we'll finally be able to hang out in the family room and kitchen and not be sweating!!! :-)

It has felt very strange to be living in the house since June and we haven't made 1 mortgage payment yet!!! That'll all change on August 1st though, we'll make that first payment and then I'll feel like we'll officially be homeowners :-)

Living with Daria and Bishop has been everything I thought it would be and more!!! I love falling asleep with my baby every night and waking up next to her every morning, it always starts my day off on the right foot :-)

This weekend is one that I've been looking forward too for a looooooooooooooooooooooooooong time!!!!! The Mile High Music Festival is this weekend!!!!! And for those of you who don't know KBCO picked some people at random who ordered tickets during the presale and upgraded them to VIP!!!!!!!!!! $500 value per ticket and I got 2 tickets per day!!!!

In case you wanted to know, here's the VIP perks :-)

  • Premier VIP parking and entrance
  • Exclusive viewing platform for main and second stages
  • 2 VIP shade areas
  • Executive air conditioned bathrooms
  • Complimentary beverage service
  • Gourmet food tastings
  • Massage Therapist
  • Full cash bar (in addition to free beer and wine)
  • Lounge area with comfortable seating
  • Shuttle between VIP areas
  • Commemorative poster
  • Private group platform
can you say holy eff????? FREE BEER AND WINE!!! WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm taking my brother in law Dave on Saturday (thanks to my baby sacrificing her ticket so he could go) and we're both very excited because we've never seen O.A.R. live so that should be a good show. Dan is going with us on both days but isn't VIP so I'm going to figure out a way to get him in there!! :-)

Sunday is the day of days though I'll be there with Daria and Dan and the lineup for Sunday is insane!!!!

and of course the headliner for sunday is the DAVE MATTHEWS BAND!!!!! I can't begin to tell you how excited I am to see them!!!! This will be my 13th time and Daria's first time, their tour so far this summer has been awesome and this will be a fantastic show for sure!!!!!! I'll give a full review of the weekend on Monday :-)
