Easter weekend was a busy one here at the Halfway House. After getting caught up on sleep on Friday, I went running errands. Unfortunately the things I went out for, I did not come home with. I was going to make a rose wreath for the Derby Party...um, fake flowers are EXPENSIVE...so I have not bought anything to make the rose wreaths, still contimplating the expense. (Don't worry I will have real red roses throughout the house.) Friday at 3 I hate a big bowl of pasta. I did pretty well with fasting. I started getting pretty hungry around 2 and that's when the caffeine headache set in. So I had a big cup of coffee with my pasta...interesting combo, I know. But a girls' gotta do what a girls' gotta do.
Saturday after James' tennis match, we got busy on our yard. And when I say got busy on the yard, I mean working from 2 - 8 PM. And the bad thing, we only got half of it done, half of the front yard that is....so Sunday after Church and brunch (with James' step cousin and his wife - long story) we were back at it. We worked for another 4 hours and finished the other side of the front yard. It looks amazing (will post pictures soon, waiting on a couple plants to bloom a bit more). So this weekend we will be working on the back yard. All to get this house looking spectacular for the Derby Party.
Easter Sunday was relaxing. Church was nice. It was great to have brunch with relatives, even if they were not immediate relatives. We talked to MIL, SIL, BIL, and my parents. Not the same as sharing the holiday together. Last year we hosted FIL and SMIL, so maybe we will have to go back to hosting.
All in all, good weekend.
