This weekend was quite productive... Those who know us well and most likely our neighbors whom NEVER see our cars on weekends can agree that Jim and I are always driving somewhere for family gatherings or a wedding. In the last year, I believe Jim and I stayed in the Fox Cities a whopping 15-20 weekends. So these "home" weekends are very preciou
s when they do happen! This weekend was one of them. Friday we made dinner and cleaned the kitchen getting rid of as many things as we could off the counter tops and reorganizing our bar area. Saturday Jim made a trip to the dump and I began cleaning the upstairs... getting it ready for a nursery. I was able to get the crib together all by myself (well needed Jim to help me tip it over a few times) but it wasn't too difficult and definitely one of the things I enjoy.
Then it was time to pick up Hilo from the vet... he
was neutered on Friday. :( Next we installed a ceiling fan we bought with Abby and Aaron's gift card to Lowe's. It originally was intended for our bedroom... however the fan was HUGE! Thankfully it works awesome in our family room which also needed some additional lighting. Sunday was very much the same with Church followed by breakfast and then more shopping. We finally selected the tile for our 2nd bath upstairs which means Jim has 90% of the go ahead to tear apart the bathroom. Now we are winding down... Hilo is finally getting more energy and very upset we can't feed him his usual amount of food... thankfully tomorrow he will be back on his normal routine!
