And More Company!!

This past weekend my parents came up and brought up "neused" furniture to us. They got new furniture and we got their "old" furniture! And it looks awesome in our living room. We had a fun time hanging out this weekend. It was kinda dreary and really cold on Saturday so we went to the outlets and of course to the BIG Yankee Candle store and then out to eat. Then on Sunday we went to church and made a quick trip to the Seafood Festival on Sunday. It was a bit chilly and windy so we walked through the craft section and then we all had crabcake sandwiches and fries! It was some good greasy stuff for our guts...but it is ok, we had a little long walk back to the truck! Also, while they were here they helped with a few odds and end things around the house. Thankfully (in a good way) it was chilly this weekend because I turned our heat on for the first time only to discover it was not working. So thankfully dad was here and investigated it for us and we were sleeping nice and cozy Sunday night (it was a bit chilly in the house Saturday night - as I thought the heater was working?!!) Also, my dad fixed ol blue and she is up and running again for me to drive. And then my mom and I piddled around the yard - cut the hedges and raked up the first bit of fall leaves.
So it was a bit sad to leave them this morning...but thankfully I have the holidays right around the corner to look forward to!! But we had fun hanging out and just relaxing.
Unfortunately for me....back to reality! The next 2 weeks are slammed with Exams!! Let the fun begin!
J is doing great and he has been really busy so his time is still going by pretty fast. He is currently on night shifts but will soon move to the day shift...I am thinking it will be around the half-way point which will be in about 2 weeks. I sure hope the backside of the deployment goes fast!
