Sorry I disappeared

Ryan and I have had a crazy month. I'm saying this to justify the really long post I'm about to write. The first thing that happened was on Tuesday July 29th. Ryan and I went to bed about 11. A few minutes after being in bed we heard what sounded like gun shots. We decided to look outside and see if we were right and unfortunately we were. People were running up and down the street so we quickly called 911. Because of all of the people running on the street we couldn't give the police a lot of information so Ryan went outside. When he got outside he saw two people with gunshot wounds lying in the street just outside of our bedroom window. It was a complete nightmare. Ryan and I were already sick of our apartment because our neighborhood is so unbelievably loud and obnoxious that we decided that we had to move. We called the apartment owners the next day and told them everything that happened and that we wanted out by the end of August.

That same week Dana came into town. It was nice to see her because it's always fun hanging out plus it offered a little bit of a distraction from the shooting. We had a fun time. We scored lottery Wicked tickets which is the best deal. It's 26 dollars for front row center seats. We also hit up some of our favorite places to eat, shopped and to top it off on Monday night went to the Eddie Vedder concert. He played music from the Into the Wild soundtrack plus some Pearl Jam songs and some covers. Ryan was in heaven!!








The next weekend we were dedicated to finding an apartment and we did! We found a cute apartment in Forest Hills, NY, which is in Queens. It's nice and quite and the apartment is cute. I'll post pics once we move. Ryan and I basically staked the place out for 2 days because we wanted to be certain that it was quite and more family friendly.

Our Verizon plan expired this month and we picked up a couple of these cute things.

My favorite thing is the GPS. It works great. No more getting lost.

Last weekend we started packing our stuff up because we are moving on the 30th. I hate packing but I love redecorating a new space. Taylor and Ashley Cameron are coming to visit the week we move. We are so excited to see them!! We promise we will make time to do fun things with you two.
