Free time this summer... ?

You may think Aaron & I have been cooped up inside & have only had time to work on the house this summer.  Well, that's fairly accurate, but we have found some time to hang out with friends and family.  Here are a few non-house-related pictures from the past few weekends.  :)

Celebrating Aaron's birthday with my family

4th of July festivities at the Bowers' 

Grasshoppers Game!

Bahaha

Dinner at Papa & Grandmama's

Finally a normal one!

So glad to have time to relax & enjoy good friends!

Painting & pizza party!!

We have wonderful friends!  Last weekend, a bunch of our friends came over & helped us paint all the rooms in our house (except for the kitchen & guest bathroom, which had already been painted).  It was such a HUGE help!  We got 2 coats done in all the rooms, which saved us a ton of time.  Whew!  We fed them pizza in exchange for all their hard work.  Once all the baseboards & window moldings are back up & we put up the crown molding on the ceilings, I'll get to work on the trim painting.  :)

Mom painted the top of the dining room.

Kaitlin, Jessica, & Haleigh painted the bottom of the dining room

Will & JP painted the den a shade of gray  

Marshall worked on the living room walls

Garrett, Melissa, & Matt painted the master bedroom

Josh & Will painted the master bathroom

Aaron & I kind of bounced from room to room

And my mom painted the hall ceiling
