Well, here it is. A whole month of photos of life lately, and they all take place in Minnesota. At times it feels as though August has just flown by, and at the same time I feel like I've been here forever. It's strange and sad that I haven't seen my dad or Rocky in a month, haven't gone to work in an office or gone out for dinner with girlfriends. But I have talked on the phone and Skype with so many people I love--much more than I did when I was in Roanoke, and I've run more this month than I have in a long time. And seeing Rob every day after a year of distance is kind of amazing. So here's to August. It was great.

1. My first grocery run for my new home.

2. One of the only times I have dairy: a whole milk latte when I'm out for breakfast.

3. I'm on the lease! Holding my new key.

4. Saw The Postal Service in St. Paul and it was incredible.

5. Dinner and drinks at Chino Latino with my mom, brother, and Rob.

6. My sweet mom at Modern Times Cafe.

7-8. Little peeks around the apartment.

9. Sean and Rob are such good friends and it melts my heart.

10-11. Took a day trip to Somerset, Wisconsin and saw Passion Pit play at Summer Set.

12. I know we're getting married and everything but we're like, dating now.

What did your August look like?

Hello from the road! My brother, mom, and I left the house early this morning and are on our way to Minneapolis! While we're travelling today, I thought I'd show you a few glimpses from my last month in Virginia.

 1-2. Had lots of dinner dates with friends and played a lot of fetch with Rocky.

3-4. Went to the beach for a week with my family and Rob.

5-6. Visited our wedding venue together! Then I met with our florist to talk bouquets.

7-8. Figured out this cute outfit just in time for my last week, then spent my last Sunday at home lounging with Rocky.

I've been feeling a bit anxious about the big move the past few days, so now that we're on our way, I'm ready to just be there and start settling in! I miss my family and that cute dog of mine already.

How was your July?

Every few months, I start to feel weird about posting Instagram recaps on my blog. For a while I had a bunch of photos lined up every thirty days on the dot, but recently I've been forgetting about it or waiting a few extra days, then narrowing down my collection of favorites to ten or less because I'm afraid I'm going to bore you with things you've already seen.

Also I have to say that I feel incredibly dull, nattering on about what it means to post photo collages on my blog every month, so I'm going to go ahead and stop. If you're bored, I apologize, but I'm going to keep on doing these because once they're done, I feel good about them. Also, I've been doing them since May of 2012, and I barely ever stick with things for this long, so we're going to ride this train for as long as possible.

With that, take a look at June. Hard to believe it's come and gone already.

1-3. We've had some pretty beautiful days around here.

4. I wrote all my bridesmaids cards. I loved it. They went all over, from New York City to South Korea.

5. Our bedroom in Minneapolis is really pretty.

6. I think I broke the Happy Hour Record in June. Is that a thing? Because it sounds awesome.

7-9. Was reunited with so many people I love for Melissa's wedding!

So tell me, how was your June?
