Father's Day Weekend

Last weekend was spent celebrating how great Steve and I's dads are!! 

Friday was spent just laying around the house...Steve got out of class early so we got to go on a run/walk together.

Saturday we headed to my mom and dad's to celebrate father's day with my dad.  Side note: I really have the best Dad in the world!  He is one of the most giving and unselfish people I know! :)



Mom and I planned a feast for everyone.  We had chicken, steak, baked potatoes, Uncle Poke's pasta salad (which I did pretty good for it being my first time making it if I do say so myself! :) ), garlic bread, salad.  It was amazing!!!!  Kaitlyn and Jon were able to come into town too, so Dad had all his kids there!

This is the only pic I got of the food...when Mom said all the food was ready
I dug in!! :)

After dinner, Steve and I had an appointment to meet Jodi to look at 3 houses.  I had already been through them all and it was up to Steve to make a decision.  I had told him which my favorite was in hopes it would sway his vote. :)  He's the best husband in the world...so he picked the same house I did.  We put in an offer...and 4 hours later were the proud owners of our new home!!!!!!!!!!!! :)


This is the picture from the realtor website...when we move in I'm sure I'll post tooons of pics!  I just can't believe we finally found a house that is perfect for us!!!

On Sunday Steve, Trish, Courtney, Travis, and Jaxon came over for a Father's Day brunch.  I made egg casseroles, hash browns, bacon, crescent rolls, waffles, and fruit.  Once again I forgot to take pictures of this day...I really need to get better at getting my camera out!!

After breakfast we all laid around and watched True Grit.



 Steve and I had went and saw it in theaters, but it was just as good the second time.  I'm not a western girl, but I loved this movie!

After everyone left, we headed to visit my Uncle J in the hospital.  He had quadruple by-pass on Friday and was still in the hospital.  They said the surgery was a success! We're just praying that he gets to go home soon.

After the hospital we met Mom, Dad, and RJ at Buffalo Wild Wings for a late lunch/early dinner.  Wings and fries are the perfect dinner for Sunday. :)

It was a great weekend! We spent time with both our families and bought our first house!!!!!! :)

Steve takes the CDL driving test on Wednesday.  He has 2 jobs lined up, but neither are at places he would want to work.  So on Wednesday he'll be driving all over Decatur looking for a job.
