That sounds super busy - but super fun. Have a great weekend.

 

Sounds like an awesome fun filled weekend!!!

Not much going on for me this time. umm will finish putting up my chair rails in the dining room. Hang up mirror in the guest bedroom, work on crochet project and start work on throw pillow covers.

Then sunday the bf and I and a couple other friends are heading to northern VA to an awesome italian restaurant to stuff ourselves silly!!!

 

Then Sunday, the BRICKYARD! at IMS.

What's that?

Birthday dinner tonight! Tomorrow shopping with a gift certif I got...Sunday Dad and his girlfriend are coming over and bringing Buddy, their English Springer, to play with the gang. Oh, that means the rest of day on Saturday I'll be cleaning like madwoman.

 

The Brickyard 400 NASCAR race at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

Have a great birthday, Amy!

 

Ohhhhhh! I don't know a thing about NASCAR.

Thanks!!

 

house chores; working on a landscaping mess...drinking mojitos and visiting the pool!

 

Ditto all that. I even have mint growing on my windowsill.

 

My daughter is being induced to have her baby girl Saturday morning. I am supposed to be there for the birth AND watch her 2 year old! hahaha We'll see how well I pull THIS ONE off!

 

busy weekend here too. We're doing major weeding (all the rain has made our yard a jungle) and getting some exterior painting done before the new siding is put in.

 

fixing up the spare bedroom.

 

Camping with the family, 15 of us. It will be fun!

 

This is actually a busy weekend for us.
...Then Sunday, the BRICKYARD! at IMS...

Way Cool! How's the visibility at IMS? Pocono is only about 50 minutes from us, but we won't go because you can't see much.

Ohhhhhh! I don't know a thing about NASCAR.

Obviously. LOL Sorry, Amy, I couldn't resist!

Tomorrow we're going to a Welcome Home parade for the National Guard troops that came home last month. Not sure what we're doing after that, tho. I'd kind of like to take a ride over to the balloon fest, but who knows. Ken is still working on the shed, so I guess it depends on how far along he is.

Sunday is race day, so I'll be in front of the TV, probably screaming at the inabilty of whoever sings the National Anthem and the (lack of) fly over coverage.

You can't see the whole track. There are grandstands and a lot of "stuff" in the middle that blocks you from seeing the opposite side. Where we sit (outside turn 1) we can see everything from turn 4 to coming out of turn 2 and going into the backstretch. We can't see the backstretch, turn 3 or the the short chute between 3 and 4. There are big screens inside the turns so you can see what you're missing.

I still wouldn't miss it though. There's nothing like the roar of those engines.

 

Celebrating our anniversary (the big 17 on Saturday).

 

Well, Happy Anniversary!

 

Porn Convention in New Jersey.

 

Starting tonight is The Great American Irish festival. 3 days of traditional and Irish rock bands., Pipe competitions ,Rugby. Guiness,Bass,Harps,Saranac Irish Red and food. All ending with a Gaelic Mass on Sunday where the communion line exits to the beer tent(not kidding).

I'll do a blend of working around the house during the day and catching various bands here and there.

 

Tonight- We're going to my friends for a cookout.

Tomorrow- We're making the drive back home. Booooo.

Sunday- The boys gets to stay home and recover while Kelsey and I attend a bridal shower for Brendan's cousin.

 

VACATION!!!

 

Today I'm doing some grocery shopping, baking, and cleaning. Tomorrow I'll hit the Farmer's Market, then we get the fun task of going through what's left of Denny's mom's belongings and keeping what we want, or donating to charity. Denny is really dreading it. I have to fit in laundry and more cleaning in there somewhere, too, probably on Sunday.

 

Sounds like some fun and busy weekends for JLers!

We were going camping, but I'm not finding the energy to pack - and the threat of rain tonight is not appealing either!

So I think we're going to hang around Bucks County and try to get some wedding planning done, go to the orchard and pick berries, can some peaches and pickles (maybe), and take the dogs to the lake

 

Friends are coming over tonight to shoot pool. Having the inlaws over for bbq on Sunday. FIL is a stroke victim living in a nursing home. It will be nice for him to get out for the day.
