Saturday Catch-Up

William has been home since Monday afternoon.  As always, we try and spend as much time together when he is home.  So here is how we spent the last few days.

We went to see Toy Story 3!

I loved it, William liked it.  We concluded that it was definitely made for our generation.  Complete with Barbie, Ken, and Trolls... kids much younger than us definitely wouldn't get it.  It was full of adult humor, inappropriateness and flash backs of our 80's childhoods.  I feel that it was definitely a good conclusion to the trilogy.

We ate at Chili's... a favorite that we don't really eat much anymore.

We made dinner for Jonna and Bryan.  We made the delicious steaks that my dad got William for his birthday. (Thanks Dad!) William went and grilled them across the driveway at the pool grill. I made homemade mashed potatoes and green beans.  It was delicious!

After dinner with Jonna and Bryan, we all went to play mini golf! We went to Top Golf and wound up playing for free!

We also concluded our evening with a trip to our favorite establishment! Yogurtland!

We went to lunch with my supervisor from Big Springs this past semester, Nichole, at Mooyah Burgers and Fries.  It was pretty delicious and a great concept.  You basically get a little card and then you check boxes for what kind of meat you want (1 patty, 2 patties, beef, turkey, veggie), which veggies, which kinds of sauces/condiments, and what kind of bread you want.  Then they bring it to you just how you like it! It was good. 

We took my car for it's 60,000 mile check up.  Poor Teenie... she's only 3.5 years old.  I guess that means she's well loved.  Knock on wood... we have had absolutely NO problems with her! She's been the perfect car!

We got library cards! YAY! So excited about free DVD rentals and free books! Best of all, libraries are so technologically up on things that I can just request the books/DVDs I want online and then pick them up when they are all gathered up!

I also got a new pair of Sperry's.  Get ready for it... yes they are PURPLE!

It was also a big week for both of us on the job front.  I'm officially no longer employed by the home health company I was working for.  And I'm busy tying up loose ends in Richardson.  Next week I will meet with my new CFY supervisor to get everything signed and sent off.

William also had big news.  He is getting a promotion! I'm so proud of him.  This promotion normally takes people 9 to 12 months to get... but William is getting his after working there for only 4 months.  He worked his butt off for this.  Last night we went to celebrate with some sushi! Next he will be on a rig back in the DFW area... he is supposed to be on that rig for the "long haul".  Hopefully this means more regular breaks and getting to see him more!
