Finally...I Can Relax

So yesterday was the first day since we were on vacation that Chris and I were actually able to relax a little. I woke up super early to take Mom to the airport but her flight was delayed so we went to IHOP (yummy!) I pretty much sat around all day doing anything and everything nonproductive. I grilled up some pretty delicious burgers on the grill and eventually hung out in the backyard while the dogs played with the neighbor dogs. Overall, nothing too exciting happened all day but that's just the way I like it during the summer. Hey, I might as well enjoy it before I have to start planning for next year!

Housewarming Party

After a full week or more of preparing, we finally had our housewarming party yesterday. Our families were invited over for food, fun, and to show off our new house (of course!) My mom has been in town since Wednesday and has helped us get the house sparkling to show off. Chris' parents have been working non-stop on our landscaping and it is turning out beautifully. We had around 25 people show up to our house and celebrate until a huge down pour forced everyone inside. Most people ended up leaving during or after the storm so, unfortunately, the party died down quickly. We had fun, though, playing DDR and chitchatting until most of us were walking zombies. Chris and I are so excited for all the wonderful gifts and $$$ we now have to spend on our house!
