Well, hello again from Austin. We've been super busy since we've been back, so now is my first chance to really update...and if you notice it's almost midnight. CRAZY! Life is so great though. Let's just talk about the fantastic time we had at home!
Sunday, I flew in and Dad and Luke picked me up from the airport. I was super excited to see them both, and glad that I got to see Luke before he headed down to be a camp counselor for the summer. So we drove down to Seymour, dropped Luke off at his awesome summer job, and headed back home for Lauri's graduation party! I was so glad to be able to make her party. I missed her graduation and her valedictorian speech, I was so thankful it worked out to be there for her that weekend. Below are a few pictures I stole via Lauri of her party. She's such a graduate, I can't even believe it! She's the youngest of the 7 of us. It's crazy how time flies!
Lauri and our Great-Grandma Roth
They're cute...Lauri and Chase
The Ladies! Louann, Sarah, Aunt Vic, Mom
Love my baby niece. 
Uncle Mike and Aunt Vic
The lady cousins
Mom, Papa, and me
Aw.
Grandma and Grandpa Clark
Hahahaha..we break them in. 
Grandma Roth lovin on Emily.
After Sunday the week was so busy and I loved it!!! Monday I was able to just spend time with El and Rox. El picked me up and we then just spent some time at her house, then in the afteroon the three of us went to watch Emily's first swim lesson. She's just adorable. She didn't last toolong, because she turned SO blue....see below. Monday evening I joined Dad at the baseball game to watch the boy's regionals. I love softball and baseball...that's something I really do miss from home. There's just a feel to McCutcheon Softball and Baseball. J.D. and Brandon happened to be at the game, so after it was over we grabbed some Arni's...because who doens't LOVE Arni's??
Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday were all such a blur! If I had written about them last week I may have been able to give you details, but I can't promise anything. It was crazy, and busy, and great! I was so glad to be able to be there through the week to be part of the whole preparation. We just couldn't be happier for Rox and Jake.
Friday, Brad got into town, and I was pumped! 5 days is a LONG time, and though I had vowed to not leave him in Austin without me after the last time, we had to do the same this time! I was a big ball of emotion when I picked him up at the airport! I was so ancy and his flight kept getting delayed..neurotic Rachael is not a fun Rachael! Kidding kidding. Once we got back into town we headed for the rehearsal and dinner, and then we crashed by 10:30. Old is what we are. I'll save those and Saturday's pictures for post #2.
After the wedding weekend we spent most of the rest of the time with my family. We did get to catch up with a couple of our friends on Sunday and Monday nights which was great! We got some quality time with Manders, Tim, Jared and Becca, and Brad go to see Ryan and many others from college group at Kossuth. Monday El had some lunch with us before we headed out of town, it's weird not knowing the next time we'll be there. Since it rained all weekend, the softball state championships were delayed until Monday so I headed down to Carmel to watch the girls play. I was SO bummed that it rained them out again! They ended up taking state one day later (congrats!!) but I didn't get to be there for Dad.
Tuesday it was back to reality, where we have been working like crazy people. So many things to talk about, but I'll save that for a rainy day! Here are some pictures!!
After swim lessons...so blue and cold. She LOVED it though!
She loves to take Grandpa's hat. Or any hat for that matter.
Well...I have many pictures and have to do the wedding weekend justice, so I believe I will update about that tomorrow. Take care all!! Hope you have been having a fantastic week!!
