Uneventful week, but exciting news

Our biggest news of the week isn't really ours. Kim's family will be moving to town as her dad accepted a job at a local company. We're looking forward to having them nearby as we haven't seen much of them (or as much of them as we'd like!) over the past few years.

Aside from that, most of our week was pretty uneventful. We both worked a few late nights and were more than ready for the weekend to arrive.

Saturday, we started to tack down some of the loose shingles on our roof. However, it got hot really quickly so we didn't get very far. We decided to head to a local festival, which is known for food and crafts. This is one of the most popular festivals around, so we waited in a long line of cars to get there. Unfortunately, it was so hot, we didn't last very long. We did buy a Bears scarf for Peanut to wear on his collar though!

Today we started the roof work earlier. We inspected all of the roof but were unable to fix all the bent shingles. Guess we'll have to get some professionals here eventually! This afternoon, Kim went to a friend's vocal concert while Eric watched the Bears game. We're not sure what happened with their last second (literally) loss, as we had both flags flying. So, someone else is to blame for the loss today!

Guess that's about it from here!

Current gas price: $2.93/gallon.
