Easter weekend, and some house progress!

Hey guys! Wow, this week has seemed looooooong. But Happy Friday! We made it!  This week I had to go to Frederick, MD for work (about 3 hours away), and I just got back last night. I am SO tired. I wish I could take today off work, but nope! I will be so ready for the weekend by the time today is over though.  OH, and this evening I have an eye appt too... Ugh.  I'm SO not in the mood for an appt of any kind, but oh well... It'll be good to get it over with. I'm hoping that my prescription hasn't changed TOOOO much, so then my glasses will be ok to keep and I can hopefully get some prescription sunglasses for the first time ever!  Fingers crossed.

I have some pictures from last weekend of the finished painting in our office room! The paint looks GOOD now, thank goodness.  I'm so glad the streakiness is gone. It's hard to get a good photo of the paint color, but it's a pretty color!

It's really hard to see the color in this pic... Dang window glare... 

But this is a lot better!  This is fairly accurate I think... It's a pretty greenish-blueish-grayish color. 

And last weekend was Easter (this week has been LONG, oh my gosh....), so we started out the day by going to the dog park, and then later in the day we went over to Kevin's parents' house and had dinner and spent a lot of time hanging in their backyard because the weather was so nice!  And of course they'd said to bring over Guinness, so he had a lot of fun in their backyard.  We'd brought a few tennis balls and this plastic thing that helps us to throw the tennis ball really far when we're at the dog park. OH, and we also did some gardening last weekend!  Here's just a ton of photos from last weekend:

Guinness loves the dog park! 

I call this one "ballet pup" because of his fancy footwork. 

Happy boy! 

He looks a lil' cross-eyed because I'm holding a tennis ball and he's SUPER focused on it. 

Here's out front walkway after I planted some flowers! Marigolds are VERY resistant to deer, so I'm sticking with them this year. Last year the deer devoured my impatiens flowers. 

This is a shrub that we planted on our side yard! We're hoping they're going to get a little bigger... They're also VERY deer resistant, but I forget what they're called... I think it started with an "H".  It said "DEER RESISTANT" on the tag though! :) 

Here's a close-up of the shrub. I thought they were so pretty! 

Guinness on Easter getting to play some fetch in my in-laws' backyard! And that's my mother-in-law right there!  She adores Guinness. 

Here Kevin is giving his mom some pointers on how to throw with that plastic launcher arm. It's a little tricky at first. 

I hope you've all had a GREAT week, and Happy Friday!!  Have an amazing weekend!!
