Busy Weekend

So our first full weekend home was spent either buying stuff for the house or working on stuff with the house. Friday after work, me and Jess went to Belterra, which was fun but of course I didn't win anything :( Afterwards, me and Derek spent about 2 hours going through our pics for Italy and narrowing them down on which ones to order from Walgreens. We narrowed it down from about 1200 to a little over 400.

Saturday we woke up pretty early to go to the DMV to get our new driver's licenses. Mine actually turned out REALLY well! I think this is the best picture I've ever had lol. Derek's turned out good too. From there we went to several different furniture stores from Walmart, to Steinmart to American Freight to finally Value City. We found a few good home pieces from Steinmart bc they are going out of business so everything was marked down. I had a budget for the couch and dining set and let me just say that there was no way I was going to make it unless I wanted cheaply made furniture. So we talked in the parking lot at Value City and decided that it would be better to spend a little more today for something that will last us a long time. So we found a very pretty red sectional at Value City, coffee table and a very nice dining set. It will all be delivered and assembled this coming Saturday. I am so excited!

After shopping, we went to Fuji so I could get my hibachi fix and he could have his sushi. It was pretty good.. I think they changed their shrimp sauce, which is disappointing since its one of my favorite things about that place. That night my grandpa picked me up to take me to Morgan's first varsity soccer game which was all the way in Ft Thomas since she was playing Highlands. They got beat and it wasn't my sister's best game but I was so proud of her! To be on varsity as a freshman is such an achievement and I know how hard she has worked over the years..

Sunday my grandpa came back over around noon bc he was taking a recliner off of our hands. Right after he left, we went and picked up Morgan, stopped at Walgreens to pick up our pictures and went to the movies. Derek saw Pineapple Express (which he says was hilarious) and me and Morgan saw the new Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. It was cute.. but I liked the first one better. After that we dropped off some clothes to Goodwill, visited with the family for a little bit and headed to Bed, Bath & Beyond and Bath & Body Works to get more stuff for the house. We finally got home around 7.. I made our favorite Tuna Helper and we watched the new episode of I love Money (which is DRAMA.. so much fun to watch!)

All in all, it was not a very exciting weekend, but a very productive one. We still have so much to do at the house.. I know we'll get there one of these days lol. I have my 5 yr high school reunion this coming saturday. I can't believe its been 5 years!!!! I have no clue what to wear lol..
