WOOHOO!!! We are so excited, and it's not even our date! Over the weekend we had our End of Summer Bash. We invite all our family and some close friends. The last couple years we've invited our neighbor - single guy - but he's never come. We're actually trying to set him up with my husband's cousin. Well, this year she was supposed to come with a boyfriend, but apparently that wasn't working out so she came alone. And, our neighbor came over also. Well, she saw a note on her car in the morning and it had his name and number and said "call me"!!!! He's a really nice guy, and they seem to have a lot in common. Well, she finally called him tonight and they're going to a race this weekend - she's way into NASCAR. She's going to come down to our house - she lives about 1 1/2 hours north - stay with us and then go to the race with him the next day - it's about 1 hour south of us. Then she's going to stay with us that night and go home the next morning. We're sooo excited!!! The only thing is that we're pretty sure the race will get rained out and we're going to have to do something local here with them, but that's ok! We don't know where this will lead, he's actually semi-moved even further south so it'll be a long-distance relationship. I think it'll be cool, even if it's only for a while.

I'm so glad I'm not dating any more, it was such a hassle! Our cousin said that this guy is strange so we're not sure they'll hook up again. Apparently his house is a huge mess! I haven't talked to her since after the race, I think they got home around 1am. When she gets up she has to get home to go to work so we probably wont talk to her until tonight.

oh, this guy has half started projects all over the place. He's torn down a wall, but didn't finish it - things like that. I don't think they're going to really date...

Boy oh boy she does not want to get hooked up with a pig!!!!!!!!! My hubby picks up after himself and I do appreciate that. He does not help with with the cleaning or cooking but he is not a pig.

Hopefully the race will go on. As of this morning they are still hopeful that it won't get rained out. It does seem though that this year the rain follows NASCAR to almost every track they go to. I hope it all works out for the best.

Yes I heard yesterday that both races will be held tomorrow, a double header so to speak. I am thinking it should be race day tomorrow but with mother nature, who knows. haha

Well hopefully that would work out with them. This kind of getting to know relationship is indeed an exciting one and I am pretty sure you would be curious what transpired in their date after that. Well just make sure that the guy is indeed a responsible person and would love you cousin.

He's a very nice guy, and they have quite a bit in common. We really encouraged her to call him back and we're glad that she did!
