Lots of STUFF!!!

Here is a glimpse of our life right now.  This week, we had deliveries from UPS, FedEx, and shippers almost every day.  We bought a new piano, patio furniture, and a net to drive golf balls.  Yesterday I bought a 2 year supply of shampoo, soap, and toothbrushes and paste.  Today Mike and I went on a date to Costco.  We each filled a flat cart with stuff, paid for it, loaded it in the car, then went back in for more.  The next trip we filled 2 shopping carts.  I wish I would have taken a picture of the car packed to the gills.  I'm so thankful Aubree is willing to babysit, and that the seats all fold down.  If I hadn't just spent so much money, I would think our apartment was growing things overnight!  We go back tomorrow for the stuff we couldn't fit in the car today.  I'm tired, and I think my debit card had a heart attack earlier.

Here is a pile of stuff.

Here is the pile from a different angle.


Here is the pile behind the couch.  I didn't think to take the picture while the couch was pulled out.

All of this will be packed up on July 27th, so we don't have to live with it for too much longer!

Pictures from the wedding

I told you that I am a terrible blogger! For those of you that have been holding your breath, I'll finally get back to the wedding. It was beautiful! We set up in the morning, took pictures before the ceremony, then celbrated with a crowd! The chapel was so full, the family had to sit on the stand! When it was Arlene's turn to answer, she said, "Yes! Yes! YES!!!" The reception was fun with good food and good friends. Allie and Cami did an exceptional job on the flowers. Here are pictures so you can get a good idea.
The Beautiful Happy Couple!!!

All the Shaffer Family, and a portion of the Lines Family

The first dance!

The cake - not only beautiful, but SUPER tasty!

The centerpieces on each table.
