Weekend recap

Friday, Geof and his friends went out to watch some baseball and Kelly and I went to The Deck. It was one of those nights where a lot of annoying people were out and it just wasn’t much fun, so we left early. When I got home, I had work to do, so at least I felt like it was a productive night.

Saturday, Kelly’s younger sister and her friend were down from Vermont and they came along with Geof, Kelly and me to the pool. The weather was perfect and we had an overall nice day. We swam, played some volleyball and relaxed. After the pool we went and got pizza and then came back to our house. I had more work to do, so Kelly did some reading, Geof played video games and the girls listened to music and played MASH. Remember that game? It was really cute listening to them laughing and being typical teens. It was also nice to have a full house to keep me company while I had so much to do.

Sunday, I ran to the dentist with Geof. He’s been having some tooth troubles and we got it straightened out. It was funny because we go to the same practice and the doctor that came in to see him was in a hat, t-shirt and baggy pants. We were the only one’s there and it was just strange. He was so nice and really good about coming in on his day off.

After that, we went to breakfast at this great little place called Java Joe’s. They are only open until about 2pm each day and there is always a line. It’s basically a small cafĂ©, but the food is so delicious. We came back home and I caught up on some more work and did some cleaning. We finally have food in the house, so Geof and I made this really great dish for dinner. We steamed some fresh shrimp, cooked some dirty rice and threw in a can of mixed vegetables. It was very tasty! We watched some Shark Week shows, the summer finale of Burn Notice and also watched True Blood and Hung. True Blood is killing me with the cliffhangers lately. I cannot wait to see next week’s episode!


Sunday night dinner!

That shrimp and rice dish looks fabulous! Mmmm...it's only 8am and I'm already thinking I want something like that for lunch (but salad for me today). I'm going to have to try to make that, though!

What a nice weekend! I love having a full house too. And Trueblood is totally killing me with the cliffhangers too!!!! Husby keeps asking me about it, since he knows I read the books, but they are so different.
