I just bought my tickets to see David Cook in concert!!! My 31st birthday is coming up June 17th and Rob has been asking me what I wanted and I really had no idea what to tell him. There are a few things that I would like to have (like an iPod Touch and a new LG Xenon cell phone) but they are not realistic wants $$ wise right now, but then this past weekend I got an email from the local concert venue we go to announcing that tickets were going on sale today so that immediately solved that! I am so excited to see him in concert, he’s been one of my favorite artists ever since he was on American Idol last season! Good thing I have my little Kodak P&S now since this is the venue that doesn’t allow dSLR cameras, but hopefully I can get some decent photos anyway!

I’m also excited about this – the first official poster for the New Moon movie was released earlier this week! November 20th is still months and months away but I am really looking forward to the movie, I know it’s going to be even better than Twilight so I can’t wait!

Our local zoo just finished building a brand new Tiger exhibit and this past weekend was the special preview for zoo members so of course we just had to go out on Sunday afternoon. The lines were SO long but it was neat being able to finally see the tigers after we’ve been watching them build the habitat for the last year or so. They have four tigers total, two males and two females and they are Amur and Malaysian tigers. I took my camera along hoping to get some good photos and was happy that I was able to even with the huge crowds and the fact that it was really hot and sunny out. The official opening to the general public is this weekend so we may go back with my parents so we can see the tigers again.

I have a TON more photos that I need to edit – Kyle’s birthday, my new niece Aleigha, three more trips to the zoo (end of the year Parents as Teachers and preK and 1st grade field trips), several of Kaylie’s Daisy Girl Scout events and her Bridging to Brownies ceremony and end of the year/last day of school stuff for the girls, etc etc….

Today is the first full day of summer vacation for the girls so they are both home and are destroying my house already and the day has barely begun! Right now they have just about every Little People toy we own (which is a lot) out in the living room and are making a huge city. So much for being able to pick up in there and vacuuming! I also have tons of laundry and dishes to do so who knows when I’ll have time to edit photos or even scrap. Instead of slowing down for summer I suspect it’s about to get crazy busy around here! Have a wonderful Memorial Day weekend
