Ultimate weekend

Okay folks are you ready to hear about the wildest most adventurous weekend?!?!? Well... it was to me at least.

SO FUN!!!

My Aunt + Uncle came for a visit this weekend!!!! To kick it off we hit up Outback Steak house. How can you go wrong? YUM YUM YUM. Seriously people... the green beans are to die for!!! We finished dinner with a deletable cheesecake with raspberry sauce and for Auntie chocolate thunder from down under...HELLO! It was dangerous. We wrapped up the evening watching Slumdog Millionare. Such a fantastic movie.

Saturday: Big day. Aunt + Uncle woke up nice + early to enjoy a morning walk and a cup of joe at Caribou Coffee. Sounds like a perfect start to the day to me. Meanwhile, Chris + I are figuring out breakfast at the house. Aunt + Uncle get back only to tell us of their grand purchases at the garage sale down the road. Uncle was so gracious to get us a beautiful sculpture of a.... well....you decide what the heck it is.

This was to good to pass up we needed to see this garage sale ourselves. Plus Aunt + Uncle said they were cheap bookshelves. Sure enough... two bookshelves, real wood for a grand total of $35. Seriously awesome. We bought them both. It was the bookshelf we wanted and it was just the perfect blessing.

The garage sale bug was upon us. We were so infected it was ridiculous. Off we went to the next sale and the next sale. The trunk was on it's way to being full and our wallets to being empty. It was a BLAST! Even Sunday after church we hit up another sale on our way home. We were quite determined at this sale. We purchased 4 outdoor torches and they were obviously to tall for our car by as you will see we made it. So redneck of us! Yes... they are hanging out the window.

Lets not forget Saturday night's steak dinner from Von Hanson Meat with a grand campfire. Chris was inspired with a little sepia + black/white photography. (chris' pics below).

Here are a few precious pictures of Juice + my gorgeous tulip! Hip-hip hooray for garden. Might I add how extremely thankful we are for having Aunt + Uncle help us Saturday afternoon rake out our garden. 13 bags full of leaves later we have got the yard all cleaned up looking sharp. Plus they are master gardeners and helped us label all the flowers that I have not a clue what they are. Thank you A + U!!!!!!!
