Here's to sporadic summary posts!
My parents and sister were pestering us to let them take the kids to Alabama for a weekend trip, and we decided to let them do it. Usually we have a hard and fast "no kids out of state without at least one parent along" rule, but since summer is almost over we thought the lads would enjoy running down to my grandparents' lake house for a quick trip.
Of course, this gave Sherri and I a full-day with no kids and nothing else to do. Awesome!
After some errands and yard work, we decided to have a date night. We found that Sunshine was showing in Green Hills, so we trekked down to Nashville for the day. Before the movie started we had a little time to kill, so I took Sherri by the Apple Store (as expected, not very impressed) and was able to pick up my new glasses at the mall LensCrafters. (see picture to right) I lost my glasses last summer and haven't been able to get a replacement until recently. Glad to be able to read from afar once again!
The movie itself was very enjoyable, though at the end I'd wished there was a little more exposition into the "why?" of the plot. After that we met up with Jenny and Chris, I got to see their new apartment, and we went to Casa Fiesta for margaritas and mexican food. Delish!
I worked another long Sunday, and the kids didn't get home 'til late. Yesterday I took off from work as we had multiple doctors appointments for the lads. For dinner I grilled some filets for Sherri and I, and the boys had hot dogs. Mmm mmm, good!
Today? Back at work.
