Weekend Recap!
8:45 AMSorry for the small absence on the blog guys, but this weekend was packed! Friday night a bunch of us went out to Orchid in Ferndale for cheap drinks and dancing. I love that my brother and his girlfriend can go now that Mariah is 21, it is always great to have more girls around! We met at my house for a group outfit shot, the guys-well; this is the only picture of the guys. We even met my friend Sara there and it was sooo much fun! We stayed at Orchid for a bit, and then headed down to Rosie’s. I am pretty sure I am done with Rosie’s, it is full of loud jerks and everyone is super dressed up like it’s a fancy club, when in reality it is mostly a sports bar. I think the final straw was when a kid I used to baby-sit (okay, I watched TV while he and my brother Mark terrorized the house) tried to flirt with me and my friend. He actually fell on top of my friend at one point; it was time to go….
Saturday we hit up the Value World in Taylor because Kyle had a coupon and we were dropping Jamie off in Dearborn. I found a few cute things for the house and then we booked it to Ikea! I only managed to spend about $45 at Ikea, but man, going in there is better than Cedar Point. I don’t even have to buy anything, even though it is impossible not to, it is just fun looking at everything. Kyle and I then headed to Lucky Strike bowling alley in Novi for Mariah’s birthday, it was a lot of fun. The younger ones headed to their hotel room and Kyle and I headed home for the night like the old farts we are.
Now all I want to do is decorate the house! I have every single room decorated in my mind. I even have plans to reuse some of our wedding decorations (that we haven’t even made yet!). Kyle has this weekend off and I think he wants to go out with friends, I however, am in full-on project mode. Hopefully we can find some balance and have some fun this weekend. Argh! It’s only Tuesday! :P

Every time I've gone into the local Ikea, I end up feeling trapped and panicky. It's just TOO MUCH. And it's designed to make you walk through the entire store before leaving. I get super stabby. Best for me to just shop the online Ikea.
ReplyDeleteTotes feel ya on being hit on by a kid you used to babysit. It's happened to me twice in my life, and it always makes me feel a weird combination of grossed out and (sort of) flattered.
Love the colors in your dress. Glad you had such a fun weekend.
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks for describing your horrible work experience. It was certainly as awful as mine. Bad jobs suck!

Woohoo! I got mentioned in the blog. :) I always have so much fun with you and your friends. I do agree that Rosie's kind of sucks. I'm good with going there in the afternoon evening for a meal but hate how it is at night.
ReplyDeleteTalk nerdy to me.
