Jeremy had some of his good friends come in to town starting Tuesday of last week. He was thrilled to be able to golf 3 days in a row. He participated in a golf outting in Gibson City Friday for the Booster Club & Rotary. His Dad came and played as well as Jeff & C.J. Jeff & C.J. both live in or near Chicago. A good time was had by all and the cool thing was, he won a fan pack in the silent auction. It had 2 bag chairs, 2 shirts, a hat, visor, a GCMS Falcons flag (we will be able to hang in our garage), and 2 little flags to take to games, as well as a yard flag and a pass to all games. We were needing to get some GCMS stuff!
My weekend started out Friday night by meeting some great girlfriends downtown Champaign. We enjoyed a nice dinner outside at Cowboy Monkey with a few cocktails. We then went to the cupcake bar and had a cupcake outside. It was a great evening and not too hot so fun to be out and people watch! Great girls night out! My friend Jessi lives near Milwaukee with her husband Jon and their kids Liam and Briella. My friend Jen lives in Champaign with her son Corbin. Thanks girls for a fun night!
Saturday we worked our tails off to get the house good and clean. We had an Open House today and a showing this evening! Keep your fingers crossed. We buried the St. Joseph in our front yard to wish us luck in the selling process.
Saturday evening we got invited to our first party in Gibson City. A parent that was on the interview committee to hire Jeremy invited us out. We now have the invite for every year the weekend before 4th of July. The party was fabulous! The people live on a farm about a mile out of town and their property is beautiful. They had it all decorated for 4th of July. We met a lot of people and don't remember all the names but really enjoyed the invite. They provided one nice fireworks display! It was a great night!
Today we enjoyed brunch at our favorite place in town for brunch Jim Gould's! We had to get out of the house for a while for the open house so we went to my Mom & Steve's to hang out for a couple of hours. Our dogs got to play with my little sister Chloe! They had a ball. I took a few pics of all 3 dogs. Lucie is sitting pitiful on the couch because she has a boo boo. One of her duclaw's split in half. She has been a little mopey since yesterday when it happened. Dee thought she could fit into one of Chloe's dog beds...yea, not so much! Chloe went and hid all the bones under the couch so Dee & Lucie could not get them. These dogs are something and all are very spoiled!
Since we had a showing this evening, we then headed to Monticello to my Dad & Sharon's house for a little cookout to celebrate my Step-sister Julie's birthday. Even the doggies got to go along since we were having a showing.
We hope to hear positive things from either the Open House or the showing.
On the GC house front, it has all been wired for electricity, installed insulation, heating and cooling. They are moving right along and it is looking fabulous! We are getting very excited. I still can't believe we are going to have a brand new house!
This week Jeremy starts his new job on Wednesday! Principal Darnell will begin his new endeavor! Wish him luck in his new journey.
We have not made definite plans yet for the 4th. We have talked about traveling to Lake Geneva to see our good friends Chris and Kelly and their 4! children!
For now, hope everyone has a great week!
