Another week in Marion filled with fun summer events.

It all started when Jordan and I decided to make yummy oatmeal chocolate chip cookies







then we spent an evening in Ft. Wayne shopping, eating at Flat Top Grill, and watching the movie Killers at The Rave.






Today was the demolition derby at the 4-H Fair. I will be adding this to my list of favorite events in Grant County.

Fair food only comes around once in a while, so we had to go all out. It was lemonade, corn dogs, and ice cream for dinner. Suffering through the 90 degree weather was a challenge, but it was worth it to experience the smashing cars, country music, and the lovely and unique crowd at the fairgrounds.

















Best moment of the derby:








We topped the evening off by spending some quality time with friends. Jordan and I met up with Time and Gabby at the house and we were all sporting our gray V-necks. True friends must wear the same clothes.




I guess you could say my week was pretty successful.

We took a walk over to our little white house. Gabby and I finally got to see the inside and get a feel for what we will need and how we are going to decorate. Only 2 more days until we do the big move in.

This house is adorable. I can't wait to live there!

Today is the first day of summer. It took Jordan and I all day yesterday to move my stuff from the dorm to his parents house. But it is done and I am happy to be out of North Hall.

This week will be all about preparing to move into my house. Gabby and I are just waiting to get all of our stuff in and settle down for the summer. I hate living out of a suitcase.

Jordan and I are about to leave to do some shopping at the flea market and goodwill. I am in search of anything that can be used to decorate the house. It will need some life! I want the walls to be filled.

I also just found out that I will be working at McConn next year (the campus coffee shop). To be honest, I am thrilled. It's probably the hardest job to get at IWU, and I didn't think I would have a chance. I can't wait to be a barista with Jordan and so many other wonderful people who work there.

I am still in search of a job this summer. Any job. I am starting to get desperate. I trust that something will come up eventually.
