The Fire Alarm Deception

12 days to go! I'm not panicking though because I'm in surreal mode. I'm fairly certain this isn't really happening...the idea is just too weird. I'm sure I'll get back in panic mode next week or something. But for right now I'm just kind of like, "What? I'm getting married next week? Pssh...whatever. You're joking."



This last week has been a lot of fun. Riley and I were able to go to our apartment and get it all cleaned up and painted. It needed it badly. We got very lucky though. It's at a great location and it really is a cute place, but apparently the last 25 people who lived there didn't know how to clean. Plus, one of the couples had painted the room this mint green color, and not a good mint green. Riley explains it as Easter candy green. I don't know about you but that would totally keep me awake at night.




So we cleaned the place, painted the bedroom a much better shade of green, and painted the living room a nice gray on the top part (there is a baseboard that runs through the middle of the wall) and the bottom part a nice off white.

One of the other things about the apartment was that it has a fire alarm and carbon monoxide detector. When Riley went to get a nail out of the wall he took the fire alarm off and there was nothing in it...literally. It was the case of the fire alarm. That was super comforting. We got a new one at Wal Mart but seriously? The Carbon Monoxide detector is fine though so I'm glad about that.



Other than cleaning and painting we were able to get all of the furntiure moved in so that was nice. Now Riley is in Delaware at his old mission and their family is picking up Tanner on Wednesday! That's exciting. Riley is loving it. He is seeing a lot of his converts and the friends he made on his mission. I'm glad that he has the opportunity to do that.

On Friday I got to go to dinner with McCall at Texas Roadhouse. That was so fun, I like having one on one time with her. Plus it was Texas Roadhouse. That is the best restaurant EVER! Just so you all know.

We also got to check out the Bridesmaid dresses. They are coming along splendidly! Marissa is doing an excellent job, I can't wait to see the final result. AH! So excited!




Have a super day!
