Planning Weekends

There are so many things coming up in the somewhat near future, and while we’re hoping to sell our house soon, we’re kind of in limbo for that. We won’t want to be gone too much during the build, assuming we get there anytime soon, and we don’t want to schedule anything around any time that could possibly be near possession. I know, that was redundant, but I really mean it. We can’t book much at all, which is a bit nerve wracking for me especially, going into summer. I LOVE a getaway, and I come from a family that made lake time something of a priority, or at least it sure felt like it growing up. So Brady and I have been talking a bit, and while we’re thinking an actual booked off holiday at the lake would be amazing, that might be all we do this summer for big plans. The rest might have to be little spontaneous weekends and such.

All of that being said, I’m SO excited for the next few weeks!!! I have wonderful stuff coming up on so many weekends!

This weekend is mothers day weekends, so that always means garage sale day in my hometown. Brady and I are meeting up with Jerilee for a good chunk of the day at least, to scour the town for bargains. I’ll be the first to admit that I love garage sale day more so for the social aspect. We always run into people who we never see outside of this day every year. We always buy lunch from someone selling burgers or whatever else for some kind of cause. We always get sunburned. Its a great day, and I’m SO excited for it! Then, my mom and I are taking Sunday to ourselves and shopping together for the day. We both need some stuff for summer, and more importantly, we need a date, so this was a great reason to get both things done at once. Dinner reservations are made, and I am planning!

The weekend after this one is when all of my siblings are coming!!! We always like to try and see each other as often as possible, but my brother, his wife, and their boys have been living far away for the last year and haven’t even gotten to meet Rowan yet!! I’m so thrilled that everyone is coming out, not just for that reason, but thats part of it ๐Ÿ˜‰ I love all being together, crammed into one house for a few nights. I can’t wait!

The last weekend of the monthย technically has nothing scheduled, so we figured we’d sell our house that weekend, hahaha! I can dream, can’t I? Seriously, how marvellous would that be?! Quite. Pleeeaaase sell, house!!

The last weekend I’ll talk about is the one after that, and THAT is a SUPER exciting weekend! Jerilee and I are departing on our second annual Edmonton trip. We will be kid free for a night or two (I’m thinking two this year) and we will eat yummy food, and shop til we drop. Last year, we went in February and it was freezing running back and forth from the car to the box store, then driving across the parking lot, then into another store, and back to the car, etc. This time, it will be June ๐Ÿ™‚ AND!!, it will be Jerilee’s bday weekend!!!!! I cannot wait for this trip ๐Ÿ˜€

I’m sure a lot of you can relate to having exciting things to look forward to. It helps a person get through their days to have something to anticipate, right? Now, if we could just sell our house and get things moving, we could know a bit more about the slightly more distance but still quite near future. There are lots of things we’re invited to, and its so hard to know where we’ll be and when, but we are trying, and would love to participate in as many events as possible. Wish us luck.

As for today, tut tut! Looks like rain…
