Habitat, Friends, Cleaning and More!

Ok...here I go to rewrite this again...

On April 21st, Brian wrapped up the week of volunteering by spending the day framing a Habitat for Humanity house in Grand Rapids. I stopped by to visit, and was excited to see it was 2 doors down from a house I had designed the structure for!

That weekend, Sarah visited, and we had a great time of chatting, cooking and walking. She made me baby's first afghan. :)

Last weekend, Brian, Dad and I were at the cabin doing spring cleaning. We cleaned and reorganized the shed. The kayaks now have a new home there for the summer. We also did all sorts of misc. odd jobs like fixing water faucets, light fixtures, outlets, etc that have needed repair for a little while. I spent the majority of the weekend cleaning and washing a plethora of towels and sheets inherited from Grandpa Spratke. It was a very productive weekend! Blue got to play on the beach for a while, despite the cold, and we got to have a big campfire with Dad. I can't wait to go back, it was so hard to come home!!!

Here is a picture of me at 18 Weeks with wet hair!

The biggest challenge - reorganizing the shed! See - our kayaks found a new home!


This upcoming weekend Brian and I are flying to Charleston, SC to visit our friends Molly and Robert for the weekend. We are very excited to see them!!!

Oh my! I haven't been here in ages and you have pics up!! Thats it! I will become a regular stalker for sure now.
I hope you had a great weekend!
psst: sorry I didn't get back to you earlier this week. My phone was dead when you called and left a message. Then when it wasn't dead it was the wrong time to call. Then I got thrown into crazy-busy land for awhile and now I'm here with coffee to drink and time to burn and your probably busy since its Monday and it's 10:30am your time.
Make the crazies go away..
Ugh.
