This week was good, pretty uneventful. Wednesday evening we packed our dinner and went over to the park across the street from us for a free summer concert. Preston and Scotch were more entertaining than the music, both for us and the people around us. It was kind of funny... But we had such a nice time, and ended up back at the house for a little while after Sarah and Andy met us at the park.

On Friday night I went over to Harrisons for a little while, since they were watching Preston after my mom had left town. I had to go on a little detour over to Weselohs to borrow their carseat, since my mom had accidentally kept ours in her car when she went back to CL. Good thing for friends with babies! I ate over at Harrisons, then came home when Skip got off work.
Saturday we got up and worked around the house, so that we'd be ready for company that evening. I cleaned inside while Skip worked outside. People started getting to our house around 4, and we all just hung out in the back and grilled out. It was fun! It was so great to catch up with Larissa and Eric, Sidnaya and Derek, as well as the usual Milwaukee crowd. :)

On Sunday we vegged in the morning, then I helped Skip bottle his latest beer while Preston napped. When he woke up, we got all ready and headed out the the forest... I mean the backyard. With a hose and weed trimmers in hand, we emptied the pond and cut back a bunch of the plants like crazy. There's still a ton to do, but a couple of things checked off the list, at least!
