Weekend Recap

As you may have noticed, we have a very busy summer, filled with weddings, showers, etc...   Well, this weekend kicked off another stint of weddings for us.

Hubby was not able to attend because he had a bachelor party for a good friend.  So, I went stag, well not really.  I attend the wedding with my parents and my future SIL, as my brother was in the wedding. 

It was definitely my kind of wedding! I kid you not, the actual wedding ceremony was about 8 minutes long, no joke!  It was even shorter than mine and mine was only about 12 minutes... We like to get to the point people :-) 

The wedding was Saturday, so I stayed at my parents and headed back home Sunday early afternoon.  Hubby had already beaten me home from his bachelor party and boy did he look like death.  He was napping on the couch and I think it was a combination of a hangover and sun poisoning.  I'll have to get some pictures for you tonight, but this boy was BURNT to a crisp!  His ankles looked like that of a lobster, I swear. They went golfing on Saturday and it was the hottest day we've had yet.  I double checked with him that he packed his sunscreen, he did not, so I told him I packed it for him.  However; I guess I was not there to remind him to put it on (side note:  hubby is white, pale and NEVER tan...)  So, what happened? He forgot. He stood out in the 80 degree heat and sun, golfing during the prime time of the sun, 11am-4pm to be exact.  I bet he regrets it now!

We're not the type of couple that goes out every weekend and drinks a lot.  Actually, we're more of the home-body type of couple that only ventures out on the weekend nights once in a great while to indulge in a couple drinks.  Rarely do we feel sick the next day, but sometimes it gets the best of us.  And this was one of those weekends for hubby.  He tried to keep up with the "big dogs" and wasn't feeling so hot all day Sunday.  In fact, he wasted the entire day on the couch! uggg I hate when that happens.

I felt rather good on Sunday :-)  I got my grocery shopping done and then wasted part of the day as well.  It was far too humid outside to do anything.  I have yet to get my gardening done or any flowers planted, but it was too cold the last few weekends and now it's too hot! O boy....

Hopefully we are more productive this week/weekend, but imagine that... We have another wedding on Saturday :-)

Hope you had a fabulous weekend and have a wonderful week!

P.S.  It's my last full week of work at this job EVER!  Sorry, didn't mean to rub it in! haha

Friday, my love!

It seems like it has been entirely too long since the last weekend!  I'm exhausted and so ready for this week to be over!  It's about 10:45am and I have to make it until 4:30, it's going to be a long day. 

I have just 6 days left after today at my current job! (I'm seriously jumping up and down!)  I am so tired of it, it just isn't a good fit for me, which is probably a good thing since I went back to school for my masters to do something else. 

I will spend the entire month of June, Monday-Thursday attending class 3 hours away from home... Talk about a long drive! That's 24 hours of driving in the month of June, all by myself! Not to mention the weekends we have to travel elsewhere for weddings & such.  I'll be staying in the luxurious, spacious, beautiful hotel known as the dreaded dorm room!  Dun dun dun.... Yes, I said dorm room.  Hey, it's $20/night, you can't beat that!  It's really not that bad and it is my last summer of classes, Praise the Lord! 

July is a busy month, but it will be o so much fun!  My brother is getting married finally. I can hardly believe it!  My cousin is getting married, it's Hubby's 28th Birthday, showers to attend, my future SIL's b-day, my Mom's LASIK (she's getting it done here, so she'll be staying with us for a couple days until she can drive back home), the Bix, Ragbrai is coming through our town and we have a concert.  Fhew..... What a long month it will be, but I won't have to work, so it'll make it that much better!

Anyway, as you can tell, I'm looking forward to summer and only having 6 days left at this job! :-) This weekend we have a wedding to attend and some cleaning to do. 

Hope you have a fabulous Friday and an even better weekend! :-) 

p.s.  It's suppose to be 85-90 degrees here all next week!!!! Summer may arrive quicker than expected! yeah!

Randomness

-This weekend we Hubby, FIL & Friends finished our new deck!!  Our old one was painted red by the previous owners, gross, I know and then not weather treated.  So, we tore the old thing down and built new.  I love it and I cannot wait to share pictures with you all!

-I have to apologize for my lack of blogging again as of late,  life just keeps getting in the way.

-After 6 days & nights of rain we finally had a beautiful weekend or high 60-low 70 degree weather and sun!!

-I have 10 days after today at my current job!

-We won't be enjoying much of our summer because of how jam packed it is already.  Here's a little taste of what we have going on this summer:

-8 weddings (yes, you did just read 8!)
-4 trips to and from class for me... A total of 24 hours driving alone, not fun.
-2 Bachelor parties, 2 bachelorette parties, 2 wedding showers
-2 free weekends in the entire summer with nothing planned, YET.
-and a concert in a beer garden :-)

All of these events are happening on different weekends, therefore; every weekend is busy from here until sometime in July, I think.  It's hard to keep track of!   O, and NONE of them are happening where we live, so we have to drive at least an hour to each of these events.

Do you have lots of summer plans??  Are you just as busy as we are??  I cannot wait until ONE summer when we can just relax and not be running around so much.  Ha, that'll never happen.

Happy Monday! 

Summer

So, I've been dying to add to my dress collection for the summer. {Read: Non-existent dress collection} I want to wear a few different things this summer, especially at my job. I've been eying this and can't wait to grab it!

Also, we've been searching for a comfy couch for our basement movie theater! We have been waiting and waiting, and I'm tired of having a futon down there..... Here's what I've found so far:


It's not as fancy as I would have hoped, but it sure looks comfortable! Recliners and all! No need for a coffee table either! We'll have to keep searching, so we'll see what we come up with.....

Happy Monday!!
