A little this...and a little that!

Whoever said that Sunday was the day of rest...was not planning a wedding
and cleaning up their home for summer guests!



Rich and I headed up to my parents at 8am on Sunday to finalize the wedding invitations.

3 weeks until mailing date!

Here is Rich working hard on putting the postage on the RSVP card!

Mom putting the final cuts on the quotes for the invitations....
and Rich and I working the assembly line
putting the invitations together!

Final Steps!
Mom and I putting the invitations in the
envelopes and storing them away!

Part 2 of Sunday!
Rich working on the bar...
sanding, nailing, filling and more!

Part 3 of Sunday included lunch with Rich's mom, her friend Pat
and granddaughter and boyfriend
...then back home to finish up some yard work!


Part 4 of Sunday was yard work!
The hydrangeas are planted and the rhododendrons are in bloom.
So pretty! It's starting to fill in.
Rich's mom brought us beautiful tulips
from the Tulip Festival in La Conner
...they match perfect!

Final step of the day
....taking down our DEAD little Japanese Maple. The tree was dead when we moved in, time for it to go.

One last look...
Here comes the chainsaw...
Bye, Bye, Bye Mr. Maple!
And, then there was none!
Wow!
I'm exhausted.
What a weekend!
