TALK ABOUT A WHIRLWIND DAY!!

Yesterday, the Installers came to install the Formica counter tops in the morning.

We went from this

TO THIS!!

(the tile back splash gets installed on the 21st)
Notice the rounded edge in the first photo and this nice angled edge now.

Dale decided it was the best time to hang the new dining room light


because...

While the guys were still working, the furniture refinishing guys came and
delivered our Dining Room Table back to us.

Our daughter, Julie, showed up with the kids to check on things so while she was there she helped us hang this GIANT vertical blind


Soon after that the painters popped in for a quick measure
(you know, so they can BILL us)

My friend popped in to pick up some packing boxes because she gets to move soon too!!

We still do not have our appliances but we got creative and warmed up our
pizza on the grill and it was the BEST warmed up pizza we EVER had!

Had to fit this bit in about the pizza because shortly after we scarfed down the last bite,
the furniture store delivered our bedroom set,


and a shelf unit for the office.



Mind you, the installers are still working on the counter top through all this madness.

In between all this I had to make a run to my mom's - twice - to put the sheets in the wash and then pick them up because we still do not have the laundry hooked up yet.

WHEW!!

Time to breath?
NOPE!
When the installers finished with the counter top
and we had 1/2 hour to clean up the kitchen and make up the bed.

THEN...

Off to a Detroit Tiger game

with my parents, our son Joey and his gal, Melissa,

Joey was hoping to snag a foul ball, but none came our way.


my sister and her husband, her daughter and son-in-law and two of their boys.
It was a special purchase night to honor the veterans and my dad is a WWII Veteran as well as my brother-in-law who is a Vietnam Veteran.


This is my sister Vicky with my parents. She is the one that put this evening all together.

We were very close to the left fielder, Brennan Boesch, Dale's "Tiger"

It was fun to all be together, and an added bonus -
the Tigers WON!! 8-3!
My Tiger, Miguel Cabrera hit a 3 run home run to
pull ahead and then it just kept getting better from then on.

Aren't my parents so cute.
After 64 years of marriage (in just a few weeks)
they are still holding hands.
I love this!!! I am truly blessed.


Have a Blessed Day!!
