We had a very busy weekend. Again...
Friday night we went to a cookout at Aaron's former boss's house (they reorganized their department, so he works for somebody else now). We ate delicious food, sat by a campfire, and drank White Russians! Those are the best, especially when accompanied by s'mores!
Saturday, we woke up to delivery people calling to say that they were headed over to deliver appliances! So while they disposed of the old appliances (and in the fridge's case, moved it to the garage to be a beer fridge), I cleaned. It amazed me how much crap we found underneath everything, but the delivery man assured me that it was actually very clean in comparison to what he's seen. That made me cringe... and then I cleaned it anyway.
The second round of deliver/installers came and put in our micorwave and dishwasher and we were done! Brand new fancy schmany appliances that show EVERY fingerprint (Stainless Steel wipes are now on the grocery list) and actually work! The dishwasher is insanely quiet, the stove has nifty fast/rapid boil burners and isn't covered in baked on junk, the fridge looks so empty because it is HUGE, and the microwave... is the same, but came with the set. Also, just wrote a whole paragraph on appliances. Adult life, I guess. I'm really cool.
Since we were going to be stuck at home all morning, Aaron decided to smoke some ribs! We invited Sam and Jeff and Rachel over for a casual cookout. Corn hole was played, beers were consumed, ribs were eaten. You know, the usual.
We also got to enjoy some Arizona beer, courtesy of Joey! He brought Aaron's favorite summer-time AZ beer - Big Blue Van! I always liked HavaBlue better, but... I will drink either one in the sunshine!
