BIG NEWS BIG NEWS BIG NEWSSSSS!!!! OK-so. You remember my brother, Josh, who's in the airforce and stationed in Hawaii? Remember how him and his girlfriend, Jill, visited recently? WELL-they got freakin' engaged last week!!! EEEEE-my baby brother is getting married!!!!!!!!!!!! And I adore her. Omigosh I do. This is so surreal and exciting. I can't even, guys. (I would also like to note that my best friend got engaged a couple weeks ago so suffice it to say I'm an emotional wreck right now).
*deep breath* Anyway. Last weekend my friend Kinsley's wedding was BEAUTIFUL. Super cool and unique and beautiful and the food was amazing (and hellooooo THERE WAS A S'MORES BAR!!!) Sunday, Michael's friend David came over and helped us out with some projects, including: shopping for shelves for the basement, installing our new faucet (it's this one, if you're curious, and I LOVE IT), putting together our treadmill, and hanging a few things up on the walls. It was a VERY productive day! Monday I got stuff done at home and also sort of got sucked into a hole of gathering potential wedding info for my brother...Tuesday my cousin Brianna came and hung out and we did a little scrapbooking and baked cookies. Wednesday I had an audition for a commercial (I didn't get it, that's ok, though!) and then I spent the day with Michael's stepmom and dad (me and Jeanne went to Hudson and walked around and had lunch and then went back to their house and hung out). Thursday I did some cleaning and such. Friday I had a business meeting with my boss for Perfectly Planned (wedding planning) and then we met with a potential bride! Fun fun fun. Today, Michael and I are running some errands and getting some stuff done before having his friend AJ and his wife Sarah over for dinner!
