Back to square one..

Alex and I had a very very nice labor day weekend.

Friday I spent the day shopping, lunching and baking cupcakes with my youngest sister before joining my family for dinner at Red Lobster.

Saturday Laurel and I spent 4 hours decorating a cake and then headed to our friend Ashley's surprise party, which was a success! she had no idea! it's always so fun to see how people react to surprises! But we had a great time catching up with friends and hanging out. We even learned a new drinking game called Baseball.

Sunday after awaking from a drunken slumber.. 3 couples stopped at El Rodeo before heading home. I really wanted to introduce them to Neato Burrito, but it wasn't opened yet and we were hungry! Hanging out with those 2 other couples is some of the most fun ever. It's kind of like laughing non-stop! After taking a 3 hour nap later, we headed to Alex's grandfather's house and eventually had an amazing dinner.. mmm! as well as a couple bottles of wine!

Monday we slept in and enjoyed the day off. I spent a lot of time on the couch but did manage to go grocery shopping. Alex brewed a beer and later we had a fabulous filet mignon dinner. Very relaxing!

In other news, we're not attempting to purchase Alex's grandfather's house anymore. So because of that we purchased ourselves some goodies including: a Sonicare toothbrush set, a laundry sink for the basement (for alex), the Mac Box Set which will upgrade us to Snow Leopard and Alex wanted a Vacuum Sealer for food. Just the thought that we won't have to live so tightly has been a weight off of the shoulders. In other other news, i'm back on the SB diet now that summer fruit season is over. I'm going pretty hardcore this time and plan to drop about 15 lbs. It should help that i'm now playing Volleyball on monday nights! Woo!

Hope everyone had a good weekend! Enjoy the pseudo monday and your 4 day work week!
