Memorial Weekend!

Yippy! Memorial Weekend is upon us again. A weekend where gas prices are so high that you can't afford to go anywhere, so we all clean house and ride our bikes. Matt and I will be playing at the Alma Highland Games again this year (as we do every year over Memorial weekend). I fear the money I will spend on gas, just to get to the middle of the state! Memorial weekend has another meaning to TC, it is the celebration we have before all of the Fudgies come into town and add 10 minutes to our commutes. Our city will no longer belong to us till Labor Day. Here is my list of things to do this summer:

1. Ride my bike from my home to "Pluto" on the TART trail.
2. Picnic on a beach at a small lake.
3. Grow something pretty in my garden.
4. Paint my basement Living Room.
5. Play with sparklers.
6. Go Canoeing.
7. Eat ice-cream and walk downtown.
8. Wash the outside of my house.
9. Visit Chicago.
10. Play tennis! (not just on the Wii)
11. Play Croquet in my backyard.
12. Have a BBQ party at our new home, complete with tiki torches and Jimmy Buffett music!

House Update

Here is an update of the spare bedroom and the work we have been doing in it. Also, the big bushes in front are gone and will soon be replaced. :)

Busy Weekend! :)

Weekend Trip

Well, I don't know how they did it, but I was out of the house all weekend. :)

We took a trip downstate to see Rachel (our niece) this weekend. She is adorable and it was a lot of fun! Here are some of the photos I took of her this weekend.

Rachel Visit

We just found out that we are not going to play the NMC BBQ after all this year. I am pretty sad about that. It is one of my favorite gigs to play in the area. We will still show up and enjoy the BBQ, and Matt might have his car in a car show at the civic center. We will be in town all day so if you are too, give us a call and maybe we can do lunch! :)
