Houseguests!

Matt and I are being invaded by houseguests! Matt sent me an email at work today to tell me that his brother would be staying with us tonight. He is supposed to pick up Lauren at a camp at KU on Saturday so he headed up this way today to stay with us for a few days. Matt's parents are scheduled to arrive tomorrow afternoon and will stay until Sunday. For two people who only had one houseguest between November and June, we have certainly had an increase this month. My parents stayed with us while their floor was being done, Brent stayed with us when he came to see The Dark Knight, and now Matt's family will be with us this week.

I took tomorrow off of work so I have time to prepare for my mom's birthday party. However, I start the day with a pedicure to pamper myself a little bit. I hate painting my toenails, and I love getting pedicures so I schedule myself for one every once in awhile just for a treat. Then I will head to the store and then home to make chocolate pecan pie, artichoke salad, and lemon bars - my contributions for the dinner. We are also having steak, pasta salad, bread, and homemade ice cream. I'm looking forward to the evening.
