Lots going on!

I have been SO behind on posting!  We have been very very busy though.  It seems we have something going on almost every weekend between now and then end of the summer.  So here is a brief update of what we have been up too recently.  I keep forgetting to take pictures of the rooms in our house that are kind of sorta finished, I will try and do that very soon!

Memorial Weekend:  We were just simply excited to have a long weekend, Derek (Alec's brother) came to help us around the house with some painting.  It was great to have another set of hands!!  They got a lot done.    


Putting together the guest bedroom since the paint is finally finished in there! 

Painting the 3rd bedroom, which we are using as an office/scrapbooking room.

Last Weekend: We traveled to Grand Rapids for a bachelor and bachelorette party for our friends Dave and Alyx.  They are getting married June 13th.  Alec is the best man and so he organized the bachelor party (paintball, stretch escalade limo, grilling at Dave's river house).  The girls went and got pedicures/manicures in the morning, then we went and bottled our own wine, and then went to McFaddens (restaurant/bar downtown GR)  in the evening.  Both parties had a GREAT time.

Ready to party!

So then sunday morning we woke up and left for Dearborn for Allyson's (my sister) graduation party.  We were a bit tired after all the driving and lack of sleep, but it was an awesome weekend!

This coming weekend:  We are having some of Alec's family come to our house to help us re-roof the house.  It needs a new roof so badly, we plan to tear off the old shingles and then put up all the new ones!  So hopefully all goes as planned with that.  On saturday I will be the gone for the beginning of the day for registration at Mt Mary, where I will get my schedule for the fall semester!!! 

Well I will post again hopefully real soon with some updated house pictures!
