Weekend Update…

We had such a nice weekend! On Friday night my parents arrived from Granger and BJ and I had a great time spending the weekend with them! I realize now that I didn’t take any pictures – I wish I had some to share. On Saturday we showed them our land and the developments of the road, our pond, etc., went to the Chateau Pomije Winery for lunch. After watching a very sad ND/Purdue game we went to Jungle Jims and ate Maggie Moos. : ) It was so nice to spend time with them! : )

After my parents took off on Sunday afternoon, BJ and I went back out to the land to dig some holes for our dock. The plan is to put the start of the dock in now – while the water is low and we can cement in a few pillars. Sometime in the future we will create the rest of it.

Our builder is putting in a few other docks in the neighborhood for his daughters (I think all of his children will be living in our neighborhood – actually almost the whole place will be filled with their relations – except us of course) and so he helped us as well. We just had to dig the holes…. We thought we’d be out there for just an hour or two, but we were there until sunset perfecting our two holes. The ground was really tough clay – so it took a lot of muscle to carve them out. Today I’m feeling it – I’m so sore!!!

An update on our first freshman night – we had a great time! The students are a riot and we can’t wait for this Thursday to get to spend more time with them. I think its going to be a really awesome year! : )
