and so ends July....

We kicked off the week with Jeff off work and starting our remodeling project. We removed carpet in the big room. Had some help from family doing some scraping of glue and removing vent in attic as well as patching some sheet rock where the vents had been. This is going to be an interesting project to say the least!

The week also played home to a couple roof estimates, a painting estimate and some texture drywall work estimate! Did I mention how fun this remodeling project is going to be?!

Tuesday evening Jeff and Matt went to the fair to watch Austin race go carts and I went to Boro for dinner with friends, some I knew and some I didnt. We tried out Culvers. The burger was good. I didnt get custard. It just isnt one of my fav things.

Wednesday Matt and I hit the local pool for a bit.











And some wii playing before church


A super fun time was had Friday night with the Jordan's and Goddard's! We got together and all brought stuff for taco salads for dinner. We ran by Chuy's to grab chips and salsa. I sent Jeff in and he got way way way too much! He got 2 32oz tubs of salsa and 2 32oz tubs of creamy jalepeno and each came with the biggest bag of chips I have ever seen! We had the best time! The boys stayed up playing and we didnt head home til after midnight. Matt was worn out!

Jeff and a bag of chips the next morning!


My sleepy boy the next afternoon asleep in the cart at Lowes!


And to end the weekend we had a nice time at church Sunday morning then home to do absolutely nothing all afternoon before making our way to join the family for dinner at Olive Garden to celebrate Ethan's 16th birthday!

Pictures from dinner taken by the kiddos!




























































And so ends another month in 2011... the year is flying by!

To cap off our night we made a trip to Lowe’s! I got a new light fixture for the playroom we are redoing which will no longer be the playroom but will be the office or den from here on out! I am so excited to start our remodeling project even though with each step more seems to be added! LOL Wish us luck and I will update with progress pictures as we go! Hoping for a redone office room and a fresh repainted baby nursery in the next couple months!
