Things...

We had an extremely busy weekend. I realize it's Thursday and I'm just telling about it So, I'll expound on the whole weekend and week. Sorry.

Friday evening we had dinner with some of Peter's Tech football buddies and their wives at Mi Cocina. We were there for 4 hours. :) We had a good time laughing about marriage and such...We got home after midnight and were exhausted!!!

Saturday morning Peter was gone by 6:30am and I did'nt see him until 9pm Saturday evening. My mom was in town for another one of my sister's showers. The day was crammed full of business! Thanks to mom, I got some new placemats that were on sale at Anthropologie and a kitchen towel. Not to mention a letter "A." I love the sale section there. :) I also bought some bathroom cabinet pulls! I'm so excited about them I can hardly stand it! They were on sale from $10 a pull to $2.95. Peter still says this is bad because he can get them for $1.50. But, I don't want mushroom style pulls so we're out of luck. :)

Saturday evening we dined at Cafe' Express. After that Peter and I headed home. I couldn't see through my windows because I got my car washed on Friday. I know you're confused right about now. It seems as if they wiped the inside of my windows with the same rag they armoroled the dashboard. I did not ask for armorol. :) I wiped it all off as soon as I got in the car with my zebra workout towel. (Which I haven't used in a few months.) Apparently I have taken a working out hiatus! Discipline..WHERE ARE YOU!!!?!??? Anyways, we watched LOST on Natasha's big screen MAC and then hit the sac!!!

Sunday morning we slept in.....ate oatmeal and then showered. We decided it was 'Peter and Molly FUN DAY.' It was beautiful outside! SO.....we went to the Fort Worth Zoo. We had a good time laughing at the Ape's and oooing and awing over the lions, tigers and bears. The bears seemed drunk. They were both belly up in the sun with their mouths opened. I didn't take any pictures...sorry.

Sunday evening we cooked Chicken and Rice and watched The Oscars with Natasha and Thomas. I slept through part of it. Thankfully I heard the song from "Once" live. Natasha bought the CD the next day and so it's been playing in the house NON-STOP. I love it!! I love them.

Monday - work. Busy day....

Tuesday - work. Not so busy day. I got to leave at 5:50pm! I thought I would jump up and down with excitement. I drove over to Southlake and purchased a gift for my sister and then headed to the grocery and movie store. I had cereal for dinner and Peter had grilled cheese. :) We then watched Becoming Jane. I fell asleep and Peter studied.

Wednesday - worked. As usual. I cooked dinner for Peter and then we watched "Gone, Baby Gone." Such a twisted movie I tell ya. I was tired after watching it.

Thursday - here we are. My car hit 100, 000 miles today. Here's a picture to prove it. I thought I'd take a picture of 99,999 and then 100,000. Wow. She's been a good car.

If you notice...I was going 33-34mph this morning while taking this picture.

I then slowed to 18ish.

HOUSE UPDATES -

Our mailbox is now in. :)

The yard and the fence was put in yesterday!!! AND, the landscape! I don't have a pic of the fence. I wanted to wait until they finished staining it.

The island has been antiqued and glazed by Linde Browning Designs. :) Doesn't it look amazing! We still have some touching up to do on the floors. :)

We also have electricity!!! I had such a good time going over to the house yesterday at lunch and turning every single light on and making sure they worked. Our under cabinet lights are a bit messed up. Unfortunately they're going to have to take a few of the cabinets off and put them back on to fix it! That's okay. I just don't want to be there. Besides, they already have to repaint SEVERAL of them.

Speaking of paint. I began blue taping the walls for the walk through with the painting big boss. There are so many places that need to be touched. I will breath easy when it's finished.

So, hopefully the gas will come today and we can have a final inspection by the city tomorrow. If they say anything is wrong, we have a week to fix it. I think we can handle that.

It will be a rough 3 weeks for us but we're just going to take one day at a time.
I'm hosting my sister's lingerie shower this weekend with a few other of my blogging friends. It should be fun! I'll post a few pics next week if I have time! :) Until then....off to brainstorm.
Oh yea...here's another picture of my dining room. It needs to be swept and mopped. But, I can't wait to have you over for dinner.




THE END.
