Good clean family fun
Aug. 15th, 2005 11:07 amThis weekend was all about family. And it was great.
Friday G picked me up from the metro and then took me back to his house. We went to the Columbia Mall with his mom for dinner and some shopping, then came back and watched Monsters, Inc. I heart Boo in that movie. "Kitty!" SO. CUTE.
Saturday during the day we spent time with G's family and I got to hear cute baby stories about him. Awww. Then we came back to my apartment and met up with my sis and headed over to Strathmore for Harry Potter 3 on the big screen outside!!! WOOOOO!!!!!!!! We snagged some yummy dinner and then settled in for the movie. V met up with us, too, which was fun. Although the movie skipped in some places, it was still great. AND G said he liked this movie better than 1 and 2. Jes and I explained how the books got less kid-like as the series progressed, and I think G might be intersted in reading books 4-6. Except for the whole textbook reading when school starts up again and all!
Sunday was my dad's birthday, so after church Mom, Dad, Jes, Erik, and I headed up to Ladew Gardens where G met up with us. We spent a little while in the gardens, then took a tour of the manor house (AIR CONDITIONING!!!!!) After a little while back out in the gardens, we were hot and sweaty enough to call it a day! We headed back to mom and dad's house (and on the way passed this sported out Honda with his spoiler on backwards!!) and had a yummy BBQ dinner. I also sniped a model car kit for G on ebay. It made me feel a little bad, but it's one he's totally been wanting for a while now. After dinner came gifts for dad (beer from G, desk from Jes and I, flat screen TV from mom) and then dessert (yummy peach crisp!). Little Joe and Brian showed up to hang with Jes and Erik, and after about an hour of laughing our heads off, G and I had to head out for our long drives home.
It was a good weekend!
