Weekend Recap

So, I had one of the best weekends in a long time...Grant and I are constantly on the go, and we rarely have any time to just sit down and relax. This weekend was the first weekend since I can even remember that we didn't have any plans for the entire weekend, and it was absolutely wonderful.

On Friday, my parents came over, because Grant is working on painting the exterior of our house, and he had rented some scaffolding and needed some help getting it up. So, my mom and I just talked and went and got pizza for the workers! :) On Saturday, Grant worked outside all day, and I ran some errands, did some homework for my MBA and went to the baby store in town just to look around. It was really a lot of fun! I also relaxed on the couch and took a nap!

On Sunday, my dad came back over to help Grant some more, and I finished up my homework, made lunch for Grant and Dad and took another nap. It was just awesome to not have to do anything all weekend. To not have to rush around to some event (shower, wedding, get-together, etc.) was awesome!

I'm looking forward to a short week. We have a three and a half day work week, and I'm planning on working from home on Thursday, so it'll be a three day in-office week. It's going to be great. I don't have any meetings this week either, so I'm thrilled! We have no plans for the 4th Of July weekend, but I'm still very excited about it. My parents are going out of town, so we won't see them, and I have a feeling that Grant's parents will be going out of town, as well. But that's okay! We'll have a good time hanging out together...we plan to go see a movie and go see the fireworks in town. We would've gone on vacation to our beach house too, but we decided not to, because Grant wants to finish painting the house this weekend. This weekend marks the anniversary date of our engagement since we got engaged on July 4th, 2008! Yay! :)
