Ahh... a relaxing weekend

Let's see... another post, another weekend. Yup, that about covers it... Oh, you want details? :~)

If I remember correctly I mentioned that Jamey and I were going to see a baseball game and fireworks, so let me start there.

The only thing that made the game worth going to was the fireworks. I'm not saying it was boring, just disappointing. We got to sit right next to home plate and I have to say, it was a lot more interesting from that view. However, it just meant that Jamey and I got to have a clear view of the Memphis Redbirds getting bird flu and falling out of the sky. The one and only run made by the Redbirds that night was a home run at the end of the game! It wouldn't have been so bad, they would have been tied with the other team at that point. Unfortunately, the Redbirds had laid down and died in the previous inning. I'm not talking natural death, I'm talking crash and burn death! They let the other team score 6 runs! Bummer. I love going to ball games with Jamey cause he is so animated. :~) He was telling them his opinions from his seat. So cute!

After the disappointing loss, the fireworks started. We went to the bluff to watch the sparkles, that way we could lay down and watch. They put on quite a show for us. It was mostly done to Disney songs, cause it was a Christian daycare that put the fireworks on. I was smiling a lot and had a lot of fun. I haven't seen fireworks that close ever! :~)

Saturday, we went to the bank to try to get me on the account and also get me a debit card. Jamey's still a little wary about me and plastic! :~) We needed to get that done so I can get a drivers license. Anyway, we had tried it before and got the "You don't have the Marriage license that we need to complete this." So, after about three weeks we finally got the license (it was in a county that's about an hour away) and headed over to get this done. The person that told us that the first time must not have wanted to do their job, cause the lady that helped us this time didn't even ask about the license! It was quick and painless. Ugh! If only we had gotten this lady the first time! Well, at least that nightmare is over, now for the drivers license nightmare! :~)

The Church was having a picnic Sat., so we went to that. It's so encouraging to go to those things and have fun with Christians. They had a water slide... NOOO! I didn't bring the appropriate gear for that and was kinda bummed. Jamey then said he'd take me to a water park sometime this summer and that made it better! :~) Yes, I'm spoiled! We had to bring something, so I took sugar-free Death by Chocolate. It didn't last long. Not that the church has a lot of diabetics it's just that most of the kids didn't realize it was sugar-free. I was kinda looking forward to having leftovers of that. Oh well, I'll just have to suffer! :~) They also had a 4 wheeler there. Jamey and I got to do that after the supper had settled. Jamey had fun driving that thing... He made me scream a couple times. He liked that! :~) The only problem with 4 wheelers is they get dust everywhere! I looked like my living room right now, in need of a good dusting.

After the excitement Fri. and Sat. we decided to just lay around Sun. This Sun. they had a potluck, but it was catered! Yep, no one had to bring anything. That was nice. After that we had devotion and one of the little girls decided to adopt Jamey and me. It was so neat to have a little kid want to sit with us for church! :~) We were invited to a birthday party for another little girl in the congregation for later in the month, so after church Jamey and I went to Toys"R"Us. Now Jamey likes Transformers and has a collection of them. We walked into the store and right in front of us was this wall of Transformer items... Jamey was in heaven! :~) Needless to say, we stayed in that spot for a while. After wandering around the store, we managed to find a present for the party and only one of the Transformers came with us. After that outing, we just stayed home and enjoyed the rest of the day.

This next Sat. we are planning to go to the Superman festival in Illinois. That should be fun... or should I say Super? Yeah, that was bad but I couldn't resist! :~) Well, that was my weekend. Now to actually go and do some of the stuff that was neglected, like chores!
