Re: TGIF
It should be a busy, but fun weekend!
Today - Closing on our house! I am leaving work at noon today too. I'll probably run some errands in between everything. Then going to a Made in Michigan Dinner and Wine/Beer Tasting
Tomorrow - DH and I are running a race in the morning, then going to the Founder's Day parade downtown and hanging out at the Farmer's Market and the Festival for a bit, church, and the in-laws are coming up for a bit. I"m not looking forward to this as there has beena ton of drama with them the last couple days, and my stress levels are already high.
Sunday - Going for a long run, maybe go out and buy a few new things for the house so we can start working on it! Other than that, just relaxing for the day.
Tonight: Hopefully finish putting hardware & other stuff on our newly painted furniture (& DH needs to fabricate a little plastic guard for one of the drawers which we apparently lost during the whole painting expedition)
Tomorrow we have a 'meet the baby' party in the afternoon for one of my friends. DH is having a boys night & I'm not sure what I'll be doing.
Sunday: Probably church, then farmer's market, and going to see Harry Potter with my parents & their friends and probably dinner afterwards.
Fri: Hanging out with my BFF.
Sat: Maybe a bike ride in the morning, and working in the evening.
Sun: Driving up to ~Bay City to meet FIL to get DH's motorcycle (DH stores it at his parents' house in the winter because they have a heated garage). Then Harry Potter!!
)
My friend is coming over tonight for Skinny Margaritas and a movie.
DH comes home really late tomorrow night, not sure what the kid and I are going to do during the day.
Sunday we have no plans. It's going to be awesome to do nothing.

Today is crazy: Leave work at noon, nordstorm sale, pick up furniture from ILs/drop of dd, pack and drive to Chicago
Sat: Going to west elm and a wedding
Sunday: drive home.
I am so happy that it's the weekend. I just have to get through this work day. This has honestly been the longest week, and I am simply exhausted from two round trips to GR and my grandmother's funeral.
On the schedule for this weekend is a haircut, house cleaning for my dad and stepmom that are coming next weekend, and hopefully recooperating from this week.
Today - dinner with DH, probably relaxing at home after
Saturday - our friends are bringing their new dog over to play with Daisy, then we have a wedding at night.
Sunday - Hopefully spending the day at my parent's pool.
Tonight - Christmas in July/White Elephant party at church
Tomorrow - spending a few hours at my parents pool
Sunday - Church, parents pool & Josh Turner/Randy Travis at DTE
TGIF is right!! What a long week....
Tonight, clean like crazy
Tomorrow, baby shower and then head to my sisters pool
Sunday, I would love to clean my upstairs office and relax a little
I need to get to my homework at some point this weekend lol.
Maybe do some weeding tomorrow.
A friend of mine is coming in to town, so girls night tomorrow.
Maybe get to that pesky painting in the bathroom...not sure yet.
We are house hunting again even though we're pretty sure we found the one already. We may be putting in an offer over the next few days. EEK!!!
My brother turns 18 tomorrow and his graduation open house is tomorrow too. That boy is going to be spoiled!
Yay! Do you mind sharing the area?
Tomorrow: wedding at Inn at St Johns, which I'm excited about since I've never been there before and pictures always look beautiful. DD's first overnight trip with grandma! I'm a little nervous.
Sunday: DH's birthday, though I have nothing planned. We might go see Harry Potter, but we'd need my mom to watch DD again and she might not be up for it after watching her overnight.
Tonight I am just going to hang at home. I am solo since DS & DH are heading to Lake Huron today. I need to pack for the weekend and get my running stuff together for the morning.
Tomorrow will be a long day! I am meeting my dad at 6am to do a trail run, I have a wedding shower at noon and then I am driving to Port Sanilac for a 40th birthday party.
Sunday & Monday we are staying on Lake Huron with DH's cousin. I plan on running one or both of those days.

Today- Emma's urologist appt and then 12 Oaks!
Tomorrow & Sun- no plans other than cleaning!
Tonight: DH is painting the kitchen. I need to go around and touch of spots above all the windows from when we switched our blinds over a year ago.
Saturday: meeting with granite company to put down deposit, new appliances being delivered, picking up our nursery furniture from Babies R Us, and dinner with the in-laws (while we are there, DH and FIL will look at my car since the check engine light is on and I will work on the shower invite list with MIL)
Sunday: cleaning up around the house, BBQ with some girlfriends, then going to DH's softball game in the evening
I just got back from the Founders Festival where I picked up some awesome wall art for P's new room. Otherwise it was just a little hot for me and nothing special. Oh and I worked this morning.
Now I'm trying to clean the house a bit before DH comes home tomorrow. We also have some showings for potential renters on Sunday so I figured I would clean some.
Tomorrow I'm working from 8-12. DH should be home around 2ish I think. I can't wait.
Then we are going to see the progress on our house and probably have dinner out.
I'm super excited for Monday because Pure Amour is taking P's nine month pictures at Greenfield Village.
