We've been busy the past couple of weeks and I'm thinking it's probably not going to slow down any time soon. We're now officially in the last month that Carson and I will be 'just' Carson and Chelsea. We have so much left to do to prepare for the baby to arrive. I'm kind of terrified that she'll come early just because we're not prepared. If we're prepared, surely she'd be late.
We finally got around to fixing up the front garden. We still need mulch but it looks SO much better than it did. I pulled up a chair and pretty much just told Carson where to plant everything. Being pregnant has its perks ya know.
The following weekend we commemorated the return of Arrested Development with some delicious Bluth inspired frozen bananas. We had high hopes for the show but after the first 4 episodes it seems like a letdown. I've read that you have to watch the entire season for it to be funny but at this point we're not impressed.
The rest of our Memorial Day weekend involved several home improvement projects. We painted the walls and hung curtains in the guest bedroom, purchased a linen cabinet for the bathroom, and Carson hung a monster 70' fan in the living room. All that's left is to paint and add trim to our new dresser, install yet another ceiling fan and the guest room will be ready (why houses don't come standard with fans I'll never know). We're really happy to see the guest room coming together, hopefully both our parents will enjoy a place to relax once the baby arrives.
(Our dogs were exhausted from watching us work all weekend)
Our big ole' fan is going to help out so much on those 100+ degree days when I'm at home this summer.
We traveled to Texas last weekend for Carson's sister's wedding. Unfortunately, we don't have any good pictures of both of us since I look terrible in every picture. Carson looked so adorable though. The wedding venue was beautiful, right in the middle of the East Texas Arboretum in Athens. There was a 70% chance of rain but it held off until after the end of the outdoor ceremony and reception.
It's crazy how quickly one gets used to Bakersfield's dry climate. Carson and I both were in for a brutal shock from the East Texas humidity (Carson requested no pictures of him 'glistening' after the ceremony).
