I'm sorry blog...but I'm just not that into you. Haven't had time, motivation or even the desire to blog lately. We've had a good last few weeks.
Two weekends ago we went away for our anniversary. We spent that Saturday afternoon at !Wollhersheim Winery and were thoroughly disappointed. The winery grounds itself were beautiful but the wine was HORRIBLE! Out of all the wines we tasted we didn't like even one of them. Don't take anything I have to say about wine to seriously though because all of that's coming from the girl whose favorite wine is the "two buck chuck" from Trader Joes.
We also spent that Saturday evening at a B&B in Cross Plains - it was so nice to get out in the country and relax. The bed was so comfy that I even slept in until 8:15 am - something I haven't done in a longgg time. It was a great weekend and very much needed.
We've been doing a bit of yard work so that's what this past weekend was full of. Jacq's parents got us some bulbs to plant when they were here a few weeks ago and I've been meaning to plant them ever since. I'm not much of a green thumb, so we'll see how they turn out. The previous owners of our place had really tacky taste - not just in the house itself but in the landscaping itself. We're kind of lazy though, so we'll probably keep the ugly red lava rocks where they are for now rather then dig them all up and go buy something nicer.
Other than that the most exciting news of our life by far lately is that Chris & Christina will FINALLY be moving here....today! We are beyond excited for them to get here! I feel like we can finally start to get things rolling with this church plant (it helps that we finally have pastors here!) and I'm so excited to have them here for good!
On to other not so exciting news....our little powerbook finally bit the dust. It was a great computer while it lasted. We're waiting for our new refurbished Mac Book to come in the mail and hopefully we'll soon we'll be up and running again.
Other non-exciting news is that there's no new news on the job front with Steve. The company that he's working temporarily for loves him and really wants to offer him a position, but they don't think it's in the budget. They have another temp that's been working there for a year that they're getting rid of this week, so it looks like there's a bit of hope as originally Steve was the guy they were supposed to get rid of and they're choosing to keep him on longer rather than the other guy, but still he has no permanent job. It looks like he'll have work through the end of June, so for that we're thankful at least.
That's about all that's going on in our world. We're really looking forward to heading home to St. Louis for a few days over memorial day weekend and I can't wait to hang out with my girlfriends! It will be a great weekend of bachelorette parties, a cardinals game and lots of time with friends! Can't hardly wait!
