Busy Summer

From the moment school has been done. Josh and I are currently in the process of buying our first home. I'm really excited about it, but it is a lot of paperwork. Last week I went to my home inspection. Our inspector was GREAT and really gave me a lot of information and a lot of advice (if you need an inspector his name is Steve Surrette). I learned a lot about the house from the inspection. It was really interesting to see what I should do for the upkeep of the home. I also finally found out who is the builder of the home: Beezer. Overall, I'm really excited about the big move and we are set to close on July 15. I'm already starting to get ideas to decorate, but I still have plenty of time!
I felt like my summer activities have escalated. I am currently working at my apartment complex for the summer. I figured I will try to get as much money as I can before I move into the new casa. This week I went out to lunch and shopping to find part of Liz and Steven's wedding gift with Eston and Daniel earlier in the week. They weren't a really big help on the shopping end! Last night I went shopping with Natalie to find a dress for the wedding. I found a super cute one at Forever 21, but I just hope no one else is wearing it, because they sold out of them while I was there. Tonight I'm pretty excited because Lindsey and I are going to have girls night full of scrapbooking fun tonight. I feel like we haven't really hung out in forever, so I'm looking forward to it.
On a more sad note, this week at work has been really difficult. Rex, our maintenance supervisor, passed away on Friday of last week. The whole office closed early on Thursday so we could go to the funeral. I felt horrible because the pastor who spoke did a horrible job and didn't even talk about Rex's wife, and she is the one who has been struggling with this the most. I feel like they should have given people the opportunity to share stories about Rex. It's still hard to believe that he is gone, but I guess things will get easier as time goes on.
