what we've been up to lately

Ok, so no pics for this post, and really nothing too much to talk about! We have been very busy getting the baby room ready and the house ready! Zack's mom and sister n law are throwing my second baby shower for Zacks side of the family this weekend, the 21st and they asked to use our house because Andrea lives in Blacskburg and Susan is putting like 15 people up overnight that are coming in from out of town... SO, we have known for a while and have been as busy as bees doing small projects to get ready...
We started the floor project over a month ago and ran into a few snags... one being that we found some water problems under our back door upstairs when Zack was tearing up the floor... So, the bottom of the back door was RUINED... We had to buy a new back door (french, yay!) and have that put in... Plus, replace the floor (our original plan only)...
Well, once we started on the floor, we realized a few little things we would like to do in the kitchen, to the bottom of the cabinets to spruce those up and add hardware to our cabinets... After about a month and a half, last night, everything was finally finished! Thank the Lord! I will add pics tomorrow, since last night we went to bed late and I didnt even get to take any... The floor was replaced in the kitchen and dining room from yucky tile and grout to hardwood floors, man are they pretty! :) And, the hardware on the cabinets looks great... the best part is, Zack did it all himself except for the snag door problem, LOL!
Anyway, so we finished the trim a few nights ago in the baby room, so as of then the painting was all done... Its light green with dark brown doors and trim (trying to create that safari look)... I think baby boy will be pleased :) I know his mommy is! Tonight, we are cleaning up a bit, putting the crib together and putting furniture into the baby room... I am so excited and I will surely post pics as soon as it progresses!
I also need to post shower pics from last weekend... Holy moly, Ann and Megan know how to throw a baby party! They had thought of everything! The games were great thanks to Megan and the food and decor was awesome thanks to Ann! They even had a preggo clay figure made that looked like me, with my kittens and bunny hanging out next to me on the cake! How cute is that!!! HAHA!
I WILL post pics before this next shower, so none get confused!

I must say too, that I am SOOOOO excited that we finally know what Megan's baby is!!! A BOY! I cant wait to meet Baby Young! Our little precious boys will surely be best friends, since Megan and I will set up all sorts of play dates for them! And, I cant wait until I have a teaching job and Meg and I can take them to the pool together in the summer and maybe even a few chuck-e-cheese trips wink wink! Anyway, I cant tell Brandon and Megan how happy I am for them, and I am anxiously awaiting meeting this bouncing baby boy of theirs!!! :)

Ok, well, I promise pics are coming of showers and projects at the house... Hope everyone is having a great week this week!!! :) I am so thankful to my Jesus for everything he has done for me and my family!
