Where has the time gone?
Jenelle here...
I can't believe it's already the middle of July! This year is flying by, and it seems like so much stuff is going on.
I continue to be extremely busy at work -- working on a number of big, exciting projects. It's exhausting, but at least I really enjoy what I do. And I recently was promoted, so that makes it even more fun!
Last week Ben and I managed to sneak away from work for a week of vacation (Five vacation days for the price of three! Yeah!)We have a few pictures from the trip, and we'll try to get them up on the site soon.
Along with our friends Janet, Jamie, Steve and Mary, we spent about five days up at Ben's family cottage just north of Woodruff, Wisconsin. That's about a five hour drive from our house. The weather was beautiful and we spent the time sitting on the pier, fishing on the lake, eating a lot of junk food, shopping in town and playing miniature golf. It was a lot of fun and definitely a much-needed break from the chaos of work and the new house.
Speaking of the new house...
We haven't had enough time to do much with the house. We do mow the lawn, and I'm working my way around the house and pulling the 2-foot tall weeds that are growing everywhere. The fence guy is coming in a couple weeks, but aside from that we have hardly done anything.
We're considering getting some ideas from an interior designer, simply because we have no clue what to do with the family room. It's about 12 feet by about 25 feet, which presents a challenge when arranging furniture. It seems like every way we arrange things, there's unused space. Maybe someone else will have some better ideas.
That's it for now. Ben and I will try to be a little more on the ball with these updates!
