Summer Really Is Over

Birrrrrrrrr 55 degrees this morning! NO!!!
I feel like it went from 100-50 overnight! It's amazing how fast the weather can change on us! And guess what?? MORE RAIN! Makes for a mopey Monday.
So update of the house search,
NO SUCH LUCK!
We went to Parkersburg Friday right after work and went to the first house. The house was wonderful, big living room and 2 nice bedrooms on the 1st floor and a pretty bathroom a converted attic into a master bedroom just great, nice kitchen, then we headed to the basement. I COULDN'T EVEN STAND UP STRAIGHT! It was ridiculous, oh and lets not even talk about the garage.
Second house looked good in the picture big 3 bedroom 2 bathroom with a full acre of land and outbuildings. The as failed to mention the horrible smell the falling apart window and door frames, vacant haunted house on property, and most of the acre was a freakin' pond! Man, it just proves that looks can be deceiving. So then I had found a house in Cedar Falls we wanted to look at so we thought, until we drove by it and it was horrible! I am feeling very discouraged today. I know that someday we will find a house with 3 bedrooms and a basement tall enough for Mikey to stand up in but it just seems like it will never happen.
Anyway we had a really good weekend! After we looked at houses on Friday we went out to dinner at Perkins. Then we went home and Stephenie invited us over to her parents house to have a fire. That was nice but Mike had to work on Saturday so we had to call it a night early. Saturday Mike worked for about 4 hours in the morning so he got home just as I was waking up! I had a lot to do Saturday and Mike sent me to the store so he could make so amazing biscuits and gravy, the best I have ever had! They were awesome! After that Stephenie and I headed to Walmart to get Corina's 1st birthday present! We had fun playing with all the toys in the kid section! haha! Mike was taking a nap so I headed back home to get the gift wrapped and my husband outta bed! The party was so much fun! We went to Chuckie Cheese, the happiest place in Cedar Falls. NOT! Oh my! I don't know if I want to have children! Haha! We had a lot of fun watching Corina have her 1st birthday cake which she ate very delicately until she really got a taste of it then she went balls to the wall! It was great! After dinner and games we went back to Adam and Cassy's for the gift opening that was a lot of fun except she didn't wanna open anything she just wanted to play with EVERYTHING! After everything was said and done and the birthday girl was so tired she couldn't keep her eyes open we finally left. But out night wasn't over yet we were going to go to our friends Chris and Mandy's new apartment but we partied with the birthday girl a little to late but my parents called with an invitation to a Bone fire! Who can resist another fire! Not me that's for sure! We had a nice time, Laura was there along with some of the Vaughn clan! It was fun! We stayed way to late and were very tired the when we got home!
Sunday! What a fun day! usually I don't move outta my chair except to eat or perhaps bathe on Sundays but this was special. My mama and sister took me shopping with them to Lane Bryant! We had some real women's dollars to spend and oh boy did we spend them! It was so much fun! We shopped and tried on so many clothes! It was just nice to have girl time to! We got home about 7, just in time to cook dinner for my Mikey and watch the opening act on the VMA's, Britney Spears, if you watched this you know it was ridiculous! So I had a very rounded out Sunday!
The house hunt continues, I will keep everyone posted!
