Summer Time

Well it has been a while since I've posted. Seems that life and work have managed to sneak up and take its toll on any free time that I have.

I'm so glad that it is finally summer time. I love the warm weather and all the activities that take place during this time of year. I think if I had the time I would grill out every day! I love turning on some good music and having the grill fired up with a cold drink in hand.

This was one of the better weekend that I have had in quite a while. Chris and I spent it with our good friends and enjoyed some great food and good drinks. Knoxville has managed to have some pretty good spots to eat and drink. We tried some new pizza Hard Knox Pizza and it was very tasty. We also went to a new place called the Bearden Beer Market. They have a decent selection of beers to buy along with a few that they have on tap. It's cool to see a local place take off and seemingly only by word of mouth.

Chris' mom and dad will be celebrating their 50th anniversary next month so we are trying to think of something fun for them. Right now we are looking at going to the Temptations Review in Pigeon Forge. I went there last year and it was so much fun. I love that era of music and it was well worth the money. I hope that in 50 years someone will be planning our anniversary party- perhaps we will go to a Lady GaGa review!

We are still continuing on our Financial Peace journey. I won't lie. It's hard to say no when all our friends are going out and traveling but we know that in a short little while we will be in a great place.

We are hopefully on the home stretch of closing dad's probate. I have a court date in July to be able to sell dads house/office. We have some potential buyers so I hope everything works out that they can be sold. I would love to have this wrapped up by the end of the year.
