beautiful weekend + new car = a very happy Heather!!

It was another great weekend. The weather was beautiful, and our weekend was a good mix of being social and relaxing.

Friday night we went to On the Boarder with our friends Blake and Brooke and then they came over afterward. We played Redneck Life... its the game of LIFE, but the redneck version. The goal at the end is to have the most teeth left. It's hilarious! We followed that up with some Guitar Hero and MarioKart.

Saturday we had a nice breakfast at the in-laws with Jesse and Julie, who were in town for a wedding. After that, Ben and I went car shopping and we got a new car!!! It's a 2006 Mazda 6. It only has 23,000 miles and 2 years of the full warranty left. I love it and am so excited! I'll try and post some pictures soon. Unfortunately, Ben is the one who will be driving it to work everyday instead of me, but oh well. This was our first "big" purchase together. We decided to go relax by the pool a bit after our purchase. I'm not used to spending that much money at one time, so I needed to relax a bit! :P
Saturday evening brought more hanging out with Jesse and Julie and the rest of Ben's family.

Today we celebrated Father's Day at Ben's aunts house, then went to an open house for my cousin, and then headed out to Grand Haven to visit my parents who are camping. It was a busy day, but still nice.

This week will be great - only 3 days of work for me!!!
