july 3rd

Hi Everyone,
I'm sorry I haven't had a chance to write much on the blog lately. The summer has been going by so fast for both me and my Dad. We have been busy getting ready for me to move to Atlanta in August. We've also been taking time to relax and try to get stuff organized around the house. We've spent a lot of time with several close family friends that have visited/are visiting this summer. Dad and I took a trip to Washington DC in the middle of June. We drove up there to visit one of Dad's very old friends, Shankar Rao. We had a very nice time there and I was able to spend some time with my cousins and friends as well. We're back in Augusta now and have a few family friends visiting us till the second week of July. I hope to be able to go on another short trip before medical school starts.
Our vegetable garden is blooming well. Some of the plants grew from seeds that had fallen last year. So we're keeping up the gardening tradition. Dad knows a lot more about the garden and such than I and it's mostly his job to take care of that. We're trading off kitchen duty's and I've learnt a lot of recipes from my Dad as well as family and friends. I'm becoming pretty domestic although all that will end pretty soon when school starts.
So, there's an update on what's been going on down here. I hope things are going well with all of you.
lots of love,
shaylee
