Productive Weekend...



Friday night I was invited to fill in again at bunco from Lynsey. It was a lot of fun and good to hang out with the girls! Afterwards, I met up with Dana and we just had a couple drinks at a hole-in-the wall bar close to where we live. It’s called Foobar’s…it was fun. It’s a small, fun place with a live band every other Friday and karaoke on the other Fridays. I would go back again. Michael had a “guy’s night” over at a friend’s house. I’m sure he had fun doing manly things!

The rest of the weekend was very productive. Sat, Michael and I decided to get some things done. Furniture Deals called and said our table was available for us to pick it up. So, we headed to Belton to go get it. Once we got home, we started to put it together. That was an adventure. The table was missing a piece, so we had to go to ace hardware to find the correct thing. Once we got the table done, then we had to start putting together the eight chairs that go with it. Let me tell you, I feel that I am a professional at building chairs now! Once again, we ran into a problem…the holes on one leg of a chair were opposite of what they should be. Luckily, my wonderful husband is very handy and skilled. He ended up drilling the holes that we needed on it. Even though it took us most the day to get the table set and put it together, it looks really good!

Sunday, we got up and went to church. Afterwards, we brought our old table over to Moran and Jason’s house. Also, Lola came along for the ride. She had a great time playing with their two dogs! We’ll have to do that more often.

After debating on what to do with the rest of the day, we decided to go ahead and paint the kitchen. It was a pretty big project, but ended up with a great look. We ended up completely done after several trips to Walmart, and with everything put away around two in the morning! I’m super tired today, but well worth the lack of sleep. Now, our next project is the cabinets. We hope to start them this week and finish on the weekend…we’ll see how it goes. I’m not going to share any of the painting picts until you can see the kitchen completely done!
