Memorial Day no Memorial Day Weekend


This past weekend was Memorial Day weekend and it was great! I loved it! It started off pretty much with friday night in a round about way! Ha ha my church had a little get-together of sorts more of a get to know your fellow ward members party! And it was fun! Then Saturday I woke up and ran to Lowes with the mother and we looked at washing machines because ours died last Wednesday. She had already found one she liked at RC Willey but thought she better check for one cheaper, and I was wanting to go to go look at bookshelves. So we went down the isle where their bookshelves would be and they did not have the color I wanted so we stopped at good ol' Wally World and found just what I was looking for! So I bought it and took in home, and built it! All by my self! So Saturday I was working on my room and it looks great I think I finally have it where I want it! I am so happy with the results. For a while now I knew I needed something. It just didn't feel like my room was complete. Well all it needed was that bookshelf! And Wa la! Here is some pictures for good measure!



























I wish I would have taken a before picture but oh well. The bookshelf with the boxes I have had for a year and have had them overly crowded but not no more! I also covered the front of those boxes. They are typically black but I just sewed on some fabric to the front and they got a whole new look! Anyways so after that was done I did my moms hair and then finished my dreaded talk for Sunday! Sunday rolled around and I gave my talk! But not without reading it word for word! Ha ha and not only did I do that but I gave talk in front of my old stake president and my new stake president! Talk about intimidation! Let alone the fact that my talk I was assigned had pretty much no way to expound. People probably figured I wrote it that morning. Little do they know that I was stressing about it all week! Oh well it was probably more for my own knowledge then theirs. Monday morning I woke up at 10 am and it was nice! Got up and my mom made strawberry waffles! YUMMY! So then Brinton and Becky and the kids showed up and I got in the shower. Mom took the kids to feed ducks and I took Becky up to go see Kylie! We came home and had a BBQ and played in the backyard and it was s much fun! It started to rain a little but that did not stop us from throwing a football back and forth! I think we pretty much have accepted the fact that it's going to be a wet year this year and just have fun with it. So then after we ate some delicious steaks we had a little fire! Roasted marshmallows and my favorite...STARBURST! (thank you girls camp) after that we all went to the cemetery and I mean all of us except Kylie and it was nice especially because that is probably the last time Brinton and Becky will be able to go for long time! The. After that they left and Taylor and Shannon went up to the hospital and Riley and Kelsee went to her house and Emily and Pete went with mom to the hospital but I didn't go because I had already been that day. So I decided to go drop some flowers off at Grandpa and Grandma Buehners grave at city cemetery and drove home and it was nice to kinda drive around alone! Makes me want to move out and stuff but I love it! I love to drive around down town. And in the avenues! It was a nice day and a very much needed one at that!
