It’s Raining, It’s Pouring!
Well okay, maybe not pouring, but we Finally FINALLY got rain this morning between like 4-5 (somewhere in there, and I’m so vague about it because I didn’t actually hear it; Kevin did. But the ground was so wonderfully moist this morning when we woke up.) We hadn’t had rain at our house for almost 2 months, seriously. And we did our part to help it along by watering the grass last night. (I know, God doesn’t need our help, but my next step was to wash my car in the driveway while doing a rain dance.)
Sooo, something else that got a little watering was our brand new LANDSCAPING! (insert Price is Right announcer’s voice there) We tried and tried for the 6 years we’ve lived in our house to get something to grow in our front flower bed but nothing was working. Whoever designed the front flower beds was either a dreamer or a schemer, because there’s an odd mix of 5:00 blaring sun and complete shade in our front yard. So Kevin called in the expert; one of our friends from church owns a landscaping company here in town and was able to help us get just exactly what we were dreaming of having. It really looks very nice and I’ll promise that Kevin will have pictures (and maybe explanations of the flowers since I have no idea…) up later.
This weekend we were graced by the visit of our friends Gregg & Erin. My due date and Erin’s due date are within 2 weeks of each other; we are both having little girls, and this is G & E’s first baby. We could not be more excited for them and can’t wait to see them again. It’s been a very very long time since we’ve seen them; they hadn’t met Kennedy, and I think the last time we saw them was 2.5 years ago, when they moved away from BCS. Even more shocking is that they only live 45 minutes away from us, and I didn’t even realize it.
Plans are in the works for the next time we will see them, which is good for our blog readers, since we spent all day together talking and eating Wings N More and the boys getting JJ’s snocones…. and we didn’t take ANY pictures. We even got Kevin’s camera out and Erin played with it for awhile… I am ashamed of us. I blame mine and Erin’s pregnancy brains AND the snocones.. they play tricks on your mind. :) I always like hanging out with Erin and Gregg; we don’t get to talk to them a lot, but when we all get together it’s like we’re just picking up an old conversation again. I love how candid and personal we can be with them.
That about wraps up the weekend. That, and we all took a very very long nap on Sunday afternoon. Hooray. And, Kevin and I are going to get massages tonight. Double hooray.
