.a bit scattered.

well. blog number two.

let’s give it a go. dave and i had a great weekend. we spent time with friends and family. we had an especially rad day on sunday. we got to spend time with my grandmother, susy. and also visit quite extensively with ma/carl/eric and then with dad/ana. i thoroughly enjoy my time with my family and they’ve been amazingly supportive in all i’ve done. they have really shown amazing amounts of compassion, support and help in the last year of my life with all the changes. thank you.

we also got to spend some time with our good buds ambo and bevan. hokay, hokay- amber and evan. they have an adorable new place over in redmond. i was glad to finally see it, it’s really way cute. amber was gracious enough to take dave and i to malt & vine in redmond, for their beer tasting! what a rad little shop with quite the array of booze. (plus it was only 4 tastings for ONE DOLLAR. yup- you read that right.)

i was jotting things down in my calendar and realized that we get to have lily on her birthday! i am SO excited to be able to plan something for her. dave and i plan on talking to her about it tomorrow and seeing what she’d like to do. after the recent tournament-esque Thanksgiving-Bowl with the Schaeperkoetter-Detert’s we thought Lil may be stoked to do a bowling birthday. we’ll see how it all goes! even if we just do a family birthday bowl-sesh it should be a blast. that may be the first time dave will get to rock his first pair of his own bowling shoes, avec skulls of course.

dave is at the house finishing up painting the kitchen. i don’t know if i told you in the last blog that the color is called ‘posh red’. it’s pretty rockin’. we used a little Christmas money to replace the outlet covers- SO excited for those (i’m learning it really is the little things in life...). i’m excited to get home and see the progress. if johnny walker ends up stopping by- i fear the progress might not be as great. except dave is still recovering from his fall last week, don’t think they’d hit the skate park today. i do like that they have time to visit though.

we’re stoked for dave’s cousins, wayne and marsha- we think it’s pretty set that they are good-to-go at an apartment complex near his sister. from what we hear, this could be a great place for them. we are very glad they have found some place they are excited about and we’re very excited to get the two rooms they currently occupy up and running for dave’s girls. i picked up this wicked long shag rug from the marketing department here at work. every once in a while they need to empty their closets so they send out an email and people go running! i scored some pretty wicked stuff this go ‘round. Dave and i were thinking about putting that pink rug in the bathroom and making that the punky-rocker-girls bathroom... we’ll see. but now that i think about it, that is also the guest bathroom.... dangit. it may not end up being quite as punky. :)

well... i think i’ll post it here. hopefully i’ll get some pictures up on this thing soon. we’ve got some great ones of the girls... and dave and i.

happy monday.
