Where did the time go?

How has it been 3 weeks since my last post? I guess it comes with the territory of summer. It's been pretty hot the last couple weeks-- we've already hit 90s. Yikes. It makes it difficult to do long hikes or walks with the girls as they just can't handle the heat. Boy, how I wish we had a large yard with grass for the girls to get some of their energy out in. I keep saying that someday we should take them to a dog park.
We've had a pretty fun last couple weeks. I've gone to a few Scrapmanias and have gotten a lot of the Alaska trip done. Dave and I have done Waterton a couple times (I bike of course while Dave runs). Dave's marathon training is in full-swing: he completes a 12 or 13 mile run each weekend and this past Weds, he "ran" Mt. Falcon. It's a 2000-some foot climb up in a few miles. He's been pretty sore from that. We've also hung out with some friends and done some nice dinners out. We have decided that we will re-do our office loft for our anniversary gift. We had a designer create a layout for us. We're doing custom honey spice hickory cabinets from KraftMaid. We'll have custom printer/scanner pull-out drawers, a pull out garbage cabinet, and a few filing cabinets. We haven't picked counter-tops yet, but we are leaning towards finding the same granite used in our kitchen. The difference between Formica and Granite it was ~$200, so for that difference, it just makes sense to use granite. We'll have to see if we can find our exact color for a good price, though.
This week has been nice and relaxing. We hosted poker night on Thursday and Dave won! The pot was huge as there were 10 people who played. Dave took away $150! We spent most of Friday hanging around the house and grilling fajitas for dinner. We closed the night with a rented movie ("He's just not that into you"). Today was get things done around the house day. Tonight, we'll have our traditional dinner-out.
