Weekend Warriors Part IV

This weekend Craig and I finally cleaned up the back room of his house. This room was originally a carport, but the previous owners enclosed it making a bonus room. So far, Craig has pretty much been using it as his workshop/garage area. This project took us two whole days. Believe it or not the "before" picture was taken at the beginning of day two... so just imagine how bad it must have been on the beginning of day one! Anyway, now we've got a perfect place to work on all of our fixer' upper' projects!

The Glotzbach-Dervan Wedding Weekend Marathon!

This past weekend, two of Craig's best friends from college got married! The wedding took place in Albany, Georgia... the groom's hometown. The rehearsal, wedding, and reception were absolutely beautiful! We had such a great time hanging out with everyone. Congrats Jared and Melanie!

Day Trippin' in Atlanta!

Craig and I spent the day Thursday in one of the best cities around... Atlanta! We were on our way to Albany, Georgia for Jared and Melanie's wedding and figured we'd take a day to enjoy Craig's former home. We couldn't believe all of the growth and development going on. If you thought Atlanta was big before you should check it out now!

First stop... IKEA!

If you've never been here you TOTALLY have to go... it's amazing! I think Craig was a little worn out by the whole IKEA experience!

Next stop... The Georgia Aquarium (the largest in the WORLD)!

Craig was sooo excited!

I got to pet sting rays and SHARKS!

Heritage Days in Rogersville

Craig and I decided to spend today at the Heritage Days festival in Rogersville. This turned out to be a fun way to spend the afternoon. Arts and crafts, food, an alpaca petting zoo, music, pony rides, an antique tractor show, and clogging... what's not to love?

RAP Team Dinner at Kellee's

Saturday night, Craig and I had dinner with my wonderful team of co-workers (minus Charles and Larry who couldn't make it). Kellee and Rich were so generous to host the event at their beautiful home! The menu consisted of authentic Italian, courtesy of Rich's amazing culonary skills! For dessert, we had birthday apple pie and ice cream! We will definitely have to do it again sometime.

Clockwise: Craig, Bonnie (My boss' wife), Jason (My boss),

Rich (Kellee's fiance), Kellee, and Summer

Hotel Craig is Now Open for Business!

I would like to announce the grand opening of Hotel Craig! The guest room at Craig's house is FINALLY done(with the exception of a few finishing touches). The room comes with full amenities and complimentary breakfast... so, book now while there's still vacancy!
