Friday Favorites!

Woohoo! TGIF! I've been SO ready for this weekend for no particular reason at all...anyway...here are my favorites for the week!

1) Dating Anniversary - Monday was our 14th dating anniversary! We've been together for half our lives now! That' pretty crazy! We didn't do anything crazy...just had a low key dinner at home. We grilled out and watched Mockingjay. I'm so thankful to have such an amazing husband and best friend. I'm really excited to see what this next year brings for us! 

 

2) Dining Table - Josh was out of town for a bachelor party last weekend and I decided to get handy. I built a dining table! Sort of. I'm not finished, but I got a LOT of it done. I thought I would be finished by now, but we've been taking advantage of the nicer weather to tackle some outdoor projects we've been putting off. It's supposed to be gross and rainy on Saturday, so we hope to finish it over the weekend! 

 

Here's a sneak peak of the dining table...

We still have a long way to go, but the majority of the hard stuff is done (I hope!)

3) Gift Cards - Directly related to the dining table, of course. Thanks to amazing friends and family, we had a ton of Lowe's gift cards between Christmas and housewarming gifts. I was able to purchase all of the supplies for the table with the gift cards, so it's almost like it was free! Not really, since we could have used the money for other things we'll need at Lowe's, but it was still nice. :-D

4) Weekday Visit from Family - My parents and aunt came to visit me Wednesday afternoon. They brought us some pallets and other wood for some other projects we want to do...eventually. Haha. I'm really excited about the projects and I'm really excited that the wood was free! It's SO nice to be able to see my family on random days during the week though. They stayed for a couple hours and we had lunch together. We got LED recessed lights to put in the kitchen a couple weeks ago, but we hadn't gotten around to installing them yet. Daddy installed them for me while he was here. Yay for another check off the to-do list!!!

5) Weather - I mentioned that we haven't been holed up working on the table it the garage because we've had nice weather this week. It has been amazing! I've really enjoyed working with my office window open and not having to use heat this week! We have grilled out for dinner twice and it has been amazing. I wish the weather could always be this nice!

6) ACC Tourney - This is a favorite and a not favorite, I suppose. We had a really really horrible game against Duke last night, but we had an amazing game against Pitt Wednesday night. I'm hopeful that we'll make a nice run in the NCAA tourney!
