Finally...pics of our place!

These are kindof backwards, but here they are: the pics of our home in jax!  

The back porch where we like to hang when there's not a heat index of 100+ degrees.

The back sunroom that we don't really know what to do with.  Futon donations welcome.

Aaron's diggs.  His office.

The office finally gave him a place to put his framed pencil drawing of  Manhattan.

The guest room.

The kitchen! 

The dining room.  Orange, like it should be! ;)

The living room.  Come hang here with us!

Our room...with our new furniture to match our bed that granddad built!

Our room # 2.  Notice the window in my closet.  Weirrrd.

That's all for now.  I had a few minutes before heading off to work, but I hope you have a great Friday!  Last day of summer school for my kiddos...and then I prepare for 2 whole weeks off of work.  Hopefully I will have some new company to hang with (our little niece, Kaitlyn Marie!)

the (failed) photo update of our world in jax

It's been a while since I've blogged!  The hustle and bustle of the life of normal people has shrouded vacations and interesting news these days.  I could write about going to Target and to work, but I'm not sure that would quite capture your interest.  Or maybe it could.  The dollar bin has been rocking my world these days.

I have been LOVING my new job!  My little kiddos are great, and my coworkers are awesome, too!  A lot of laughing goes on during the work-day.  We determined that yesterday was deemed an epic Friday:  think pink eye, lice, barf, and crying. Needless to say we all made it out the door at precisely five o'clock.  But it's all in a day's work... and we've got one more week of summer school before a little summer vacay before the regular school year starts in the fall.  Not planning any big trips, as we are awaiting the arrival of our niece! (circa July 30th...)

Aaron is in Barcelona this week and should be coming back tomorrow.  I have taken up cleaning the house as my Saturday pastime.  How lovely.

I thought I would take a few pictures of our place, given that I never did, and some of you may be curious to see it if you haven't already.

....Annnnnd.  Photos are not working right now and I have given up on fighting them to get into this post from iPhoto.  I PROMISE once this begins working again I will post!!

Until then, HAPPY SATURDAY!  It's a contemporary singer/songwriter pandora station kind of day, so I'm gonna continue to get my cleaning boogie on!

Hooray for Mikey!

Good morning friends and family!

Happy 4th of July Weekend!  I hope you, too, are enjoying my favorite weekend of the year, whether you are cooking out, watching fireworks, hanging with family and friends, and/or sporting some patriotic red, white, & blue...like me!

Aaron and I have had a crazy weekend of catching up on all of the things that have populated our to-do list for the last several weeks.  And now that I've started work, the weekend is the time to get it done!  The main mission we had was to pick up and finish our new pine furniture that we bought to match the bed Aaron's granddad made for us (pictures to come!).  Also on my list is to post some of the pics of last weekend's trip to Stuart to celebrate the birthday/graduation of my sister's boyfriend, Mikey.

Here are some of the pics (courtesy of Rita Knepper, Mikey's mom) from the partay!

Surprise!! 

Noa was left unattended.  Stay away from the blue icing on the leftover cake.

Rita learned what happens when you put the Gehron girls in front of a camera and let us be silly.   Kardashian pose.

Aaron and I with fellow Seminoles AJ and Lindsay (Mikey's sis).

Aaron wouldn't get up to take a picture with me so I helped him.

That's better.

Mikey wearing the party decor.

Turns out the rookie Wilsons are quite good at beer/water pong.

Just a great pic of my parents at the party!

Julie, Nick, and Matt were there, too!

Congrats, Mikey!!

Love these guys and gal!

Ciao for now!  On today's agenda: Casey Anthony trial closing arguments (you know you're watching it, too), finishing the furniture, and beach time!

Hope everyone is enjoying their holiday weekend!
