Happy 4th of July!


I hope everyone is having a great week. I feel I have had a very productive past couple of days. Brandon's car was in the shop so he took mine, because I wanted to stay home and get things done, and I knew not having a car would force me to do that! Yesterday I cleaned the house, I was extremely domestic if I do say so myself! I have also been working on a decorating project that I have been wanting to do. I found an old window in the basement of our house, so I cleaned it off and painted it brown (the same color as the bookcase in the den). I picked out 6 pictures from the weeding, honeymoon, Barkley, and other trips and had them printed in black and white and it 8x10 sizes. I am going to tape them on the back side of the window and hang it on the wall in the den, so you will see a window with a picture in each pane (I will post pictures when I have finished it, which hopefully will be today!).

Once again, we are packing to head out for the weekend. Do you know that Brandon and I have only spent one weekend in Birmingham since we moved into the house??? Crazy I know, but I guess that is summer for you! We of course are heading to the lake today for the 4th of July. Brandon and I are going to go to Lake Harding tomorrow to spend the day with Ed, Jessica, Katie, and Ty, then the Holston Families will come down Saturday morning. As always we will have a fun time in a packed house....5 little girls, 1 baby boy, 8 adults, and 2 possibly 4 dogs!!! How does that not sound like a blast! We will definitely be entertained and never bored!

Since we are leaving when Brandon gets off of work, I have alot to do, including packing for both of us, making a dessert to take, changing the sheets and towels at the house and running some errands. So on that note, I better get a move on. Have a great weekend and Happy 4th of July!!!!!
