Our weekend...

This past weekend, like all was pretty busy...however, nice!

Friday evening Sean was off work, so we had the evening together. I had made dinner so we had a nice meal...and then decided since the weather was nice we would go for a walk. Our neighborhood is literally up hills, then down, so on and so forth, so I asked if we could go do a trail...and we found ourselves at Virginia Kendall where we walked for a bit and then watched the sunset. It was so nice. As we walked back to the car, I felt like a teen in love holding hands across the field to our car. It is so great to have moments like these...hand in hand and so happy.

Saturday afternoon, Sean and I had a "date night" which proved that we are a boring married couple...we found ourselves after a nice dinner at Outback (FREE with our cash back rewards from Discover Card) Then, we went to go to the movies with our FREE movie passes, but the guy at the theatre said "hey buddy haven't been an AMC for a year" then he continued to write on his little clip board. I then protested and said "apparently he doesn't want to sell us tickets; and we left". This is where we become boring....we went to Target to get a shower curtain and Lowe's to get a planted flower pot for our open house the next day. We then went and got some ice cream...which was sooo good. (Can you tell that's what I crave?) Once we got home, our neighbors called us and asked if we would like to come over and watch a movie; so we did; which made us feel a little bit less boring; since we were arriving home from our date just shy of 9pm.

Sunday, was just as nice....after cleaning the condo, I went to my Mom's house and she and I went to Target then, lunch at Panera...(she bought my lunch since I was a good little girl while she ran her errands at Target). After lunch, we went back to her house and I napped for a few hours; shopping made me tired apparently. When I woke up; I went home; Sean had just gotten off work and we had to go the the grocery store....now, most of you probably think of grocery store shopping as a pain...I do too! But, Sean, he's hilarious with grocery shopping! He dances around like Carlton from 'Fresh Prince', literally sneaks in and gives me a kiss as he secretively is adding items into my nicely organized cart. We start out with produce and by the time we get to the end of the store- we are stacking items on top of everything; including on the bread! (I hate that). We then always do the self checkout; I scan and he bags. We also try to guess how much we saved with coupons and our advantage card (this time was our best at $20 and have .60 cents off gas!) When we get home, we both bring in groceries, he puts away the dry stuff; and I do the cold stuff. I love this routine as we work really well together. I will have to say we will have to think of a new strategy when Connor is born since we over fill our cart...and can't even imagine a car seat carrier in there too!

Then of course, our Sunday evening ended with Desperate housewives...and ear wax candles! Yes, they are candles you put in your ear and it pulls out all the wax. I swear by them; they help with allergies and colds, etc. Well, you can't do it alone as there is a flame and someone needs to keep their 'eye' on it. Well, apparently time slipped by and Sean was like; don't move!!! Right as I was moving....the candles ashes fell onto the plate and Sean quickly blew at the fire causing ashes and some of the flame to go EVERYWHERE! It was funny because he then continued to say "LYNSEY DONT MOVE". There wasn't a fire, but there certainly was A LOT of laughter!

This is truly the life that I have dreamed of...and I am so thankful to have been able to spend some time with Sean the past few days.
