For Mike anyways :)
He was certainly the home-project man this weekend. On Sunday we went to Ikea with Joe and Heidi, and we had a blast picking out furniture and decor and such. That was the fun part. And then came the not-so-fun part: "SOME ASSEMBLY REQUIRED." Mike assembled every bit of it. Except the curtains - I figured I had better do those. ;) Among the "assembly needed" items was a chandelier that, for several reasons, took about 4 hours to install. At first glance, we did NOT expect it to take that long. But it did. And Mike was a trooper. He is my hero.
So that's how we spent most of the weekend. And then yesterday we went to the Y (yay!) came home and made muffins for breakfast, and then went to the Smiths for a picnic with the Sharps and Gemmells. It was a swell time. (Note - I am going to bring back to the word "swell.")

Banana-Oat Muffins. MMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmm.
In process of assembling.
AND THERE WAS LIGHT! (and much rejoicing)
And here are some pics from our picnic
And then came Wiffle Ball.....
Even Dan got in on the action and had a blast!
And this here as been one of the highlights: mornings in our new house. Complete with Fresh Market coffee and banana-oat muffins broiled with just a bit of butter. Divine.
All in all, it was a swell weekend.
