life is really all about enjoying the little things in between the time that there are no big things going on. right now danielle and i are enjoying pei wei and friday night lights. it is actually close to what i would imagine normal life would feel like. for the last few nights shes driven down and we pick up the same thing at pei wei (kid's honey chicken meal with brown rice and a drink: 9.45 total! if that aint a deal i don't know what is) and we sit down and watch friday night lights. she's got a bit of catching up to do so i've been trying to do homework while she watches, but it's really nice. i am sure, if i know myself like i think i do, that if i ever was actually living a "normal life" and not just pretending like we have been lately, that i would go crazy, but it is really nice right now. very relaxing.

we also got to be part of brandon and alex's wedding this weekend which was amazing. too much good stuff to talk about in my limited time but i'll throw in some pics.

in other news, i'm really excited about the heule oktoberfest this year. i think it is going to be far superior to last years and there is going to be some amazing beers to taste as well.
