Memorial Day Weekend 2010



We had quite a busy Memorial Day Weekend! We got a ton of items crossed off of our to-do list. We started by clearing out my office which will now be Itty's room. So that meant that Vince had to move his clothes out of the closet and we had to take apart my desk and move the armoire into the guest room. We got a neutral rug made to fit the room and picked it up and put it down. So now we just need to call and schedule the furniture delivery.

We also added some nice ottomans to the deck furniture, an outdoor rug and a umbrella that tilts and rolls. Vince also thought it was time to replace the spring flowers with summer flowers. We make a really good team when it comes to landscaping and really enjoy it! I am the designer and he is the planter! So we planted a nice new tree and filled up numerous pots with pretty summer flowers! We started our annual power washing project but before I could even finish the front walkway the washer started smoking and died. So now we need to get a new one to finish up the front and then the back walkway and patio.

On Monday we headed downtown for lunch and then headed to our first Pirates game. The stadium is very nice-it reminds me of Citizens in Philly but the backdrop at PNC is much better. Vince got us amazing seats 13 rows behind home plate. As soon as the first pitch was getting thrown the skies opened up. At first it was light rain but then it started to pour. We ran for cover along side a ton of people. Luckily the usher took pity on this pregnant girl and gave us new seats under cover. The new seats were good too and we enjoyed the rest of the game there.

I was really sad to see Tuesday come and Vince go back to work. We had so much fun on our long weekend.

  1. Sounds like a wonderful weekend. Can't wait to see what you do with Itty's room. I'm sure it will be adorable like the rest of your house always is.
