Week/end Recap

Weekend Recaps

26 Aug

I’ve realized that I have a lot to learn when it comes to blogging. Like, taking photos of the “interesting” things I do is kind of a requirement. Maybe when that husband of mine buys me a camera, I’ll get better at it (wink wink, hint hint).

Anyway, here’s what I DID manage to photograph over the last several days.

MONDAY:

This is what happens when your dishwasher suddenly decides to stop washing dishes. T-minus two more weeks until we can stop hand washing EVERYTHING. I’m spoiled. I know.


TUESDAY:

Tuesday night was the official draft for the GRID Fantasy Football League. As the reigning champion it was only appropriate that I celebrate my upcoming repeat with steaks from Joe’s Butcher Shop, and the company of the future Mr. & Mrs. Parks and the newly-wed Nettoc’s.

Also, I drafted this guy.

THURSDAY:

Thursday we attended the semi-surprise birthday dinner of a dear friend. Happy 27th, Bram!

 

SATURDAY:

Saturday was a full day of junkin’ with my mom. After walking all over the town of New Market in search of treasures, we ended up with a carload that included MORE clothes for Baby C, a Pack ‘n Play for Grandma, ceiling tins and a $5 bench.

But no brass reindeer. 🙁

 

SUNDAY:

Sunday brunch at Petite Chou with my high school besties (complete with mimosas), followed by mani/pedis was the perfect end to this weekend. 

Scratch that. The *NSYNC reunion just happened on the VMA’s.

Weekend complete.
