Holy Moly

What a weekend! Janet, Scott and mom arrived on Friday, you should have seen this trailer, it was STUFFED! We had it unloaded on Saturday in less than an hour, thanks to the help of a couple of Dans friends from base. Mom and Janet got to work unloading my tubs, and basically had the whole kitchen done in no time at all. i know i wouldn't have been able to do that on my own. Thanks to my uncle John, everything was packed on the trailer well, and there was only one casualty, a wine glass. He should do this for a living! just kidding uncle John. my Nana sent up some of her yummy brownies, what a treat, they are my favorite! and Greg and Pam's furniture is just awesome! we both love it all. The desk that was sent up was going to be to big to fit in the tiny spare bedroom, but as it turns out, one of the guys helping us move needed one so he took it. we went to his house the other night and i thought it was part of there already existing furniture it matched so well, i forgot we had given it to him! and mom couldn't wait to make up the guest bed with the wonderful comforter set my aunt Donna gave to us. After the "hard labor" was done, Dan took Scott to the gun range, and mom, Janet and i worked on the house. when the boys got back, we headed to DC and saw EVERYTHING. it was really a great night, and we were SO tired when we got back to the apartment. the next morning, we worked a little more on the house, and Janet, Scott and Mom got on the road back home. thanks again for all your help guys! we love you!

today was my first day at Pier 1. i was SO happy to be back to work. all the people are really cool, and its a "concept store" which basically means it's laid out differently than other stores. its really busy, and there always moving around the sales floor, so theres always something to do. i also managed to stab myself in the hand with a box cutter today, guess it wouldn't be a "first day" without a real injury right?


PS- this picture just makes me happy--


Back off ladies, this ones taken....

That's right, he's taken! Thank you so much for having us all up- we had a blast! And thank you for the steak dinner and for tromping through DC for 6 hours. Next time we are getting the standy-up scooter things...

We love you!
