A Fun & Busy Weekend

This weekend was actually really good. I got to do a lot of fun things and got a lot done too. :)

Friday night, as I described in my other post, Austin surprised with Benihana's. Yummy! Then Saturday, we slept in a bit, relaxed around the apartment and unpacked a few things and cleaned, and then headed to the mall. I returned the jeans at Nordstrom's that his parents had gotten me because they were the right size but the style wasn't just fitting my body right and found another pair I loved but they didn't have the right size! We also hit up the sales at Banana Republic & Express. Then we headed over to Austin's parents house to pick up our boxes of Christmas presents and to have dinner. We then went to see Meet the Fockers, which was really pretty good. Quite funny - if you liked the first one, you'll like this one because it is very similar except they've added two new faces and actually I was impressed by Dustin Hoffman & Barbara Streisand's performances. As well as the too cute kiddo they have in there as well!

Yesterday, we got up and went to check out a new church. We went to Irving Bible Church and had a good time. We are going to try it again next week and see how it goes. Austin & I both have a lot of stress in our lives and things going on, and we felt like we needed to seek more involvement with God. After that, we went to the Galleria to pick up the jeans that Nordstrom's had put on hold for me, and they fit perfectly! I have never bought a pair of jeans that expensive in my entire life, but they feel wonderful and I only spent $10 more on them than the exchange of the others so it was worth it to me! ;) Then we headed to Walmart to get some things for the apartment and groceries. Went to dinner at BW3 and then home to watch Desperate Housewives. All in all, it was a pretty good weekend. I just wish it could have lasted longer. But they never do!

My grandmother seems to be doing fairly well although she's complaining about not wanting to eat. Luckily, they can give her IVs as needed. I just hope she is strong and works hard for a speedy recovery! That is all for now - I'm sure I'll have some interesting tidbit to share later today but I thought I would update everyone on my weekend (since it was so thrilling - ha!). Hope you all had great weekends too! :)
