Poker Face

Last Saturday, Ally was kind of bummed that she didn't have anything to give my dad for Father's Day. I decided to go to the store to get something for her to give him. She mentioned wanting to bake him a cake, so I got her a cake mix and frosting. I helped her get set up but besides putting it in the oven she did it all by herself.



That night I hung out with Alex a bit before the barbecue at his friend Steve's house. We watched some 24 and he played a video game. The barbecue was fun. I learned how to play Texas Hold Em and even won!! It was such a fun night.


Sunday I went with my dad and Ally to see Toy Story 3. Afterwards, we went home and relexed for a bit. I had to take a quick nap because I didn't sleep much the night before. For dinner we went to Cracker Barrell and had great food and had fun in the gift shop area. At home we watched Remember the Titans then went to bed. It was a great weekend.

Date Night

On Friday after work, I was soooo excited to see my Alex. I usually only see him on weekends most of the time so it was nice being at work with something to look forward to at the end of the day. We went to his house and watched some basketball then went to the movies. We each got a white castle burger and Dr. Pepper. We saw Get Him to the Greek. It was HILARIOUS. We had such a fun time and plan on having these date nights more often. :)

Fun Weekend

This past Friday was the first time I'd seen Alex in a couple weeks, due to him being sick, poor thing. He picked me up after work and we went to his dad's house. His dad and stepmom went out of town so he'd been house-sitting and dog-sitting for them. It was nice having a place to ourselves. While contemplating what to have for dinner, I saw a brochure for JoJo's pizza and that's my family's favorite pizza. We only eat there once in awhile since they're far from us but they were close to Alex's dad's house. He'd never had it before so I recommended it. He got this "white pizza" and LOVED it. I was so glad. His best friend and his fiance later came over. We ate our pizza and they ate McDonald's. After we ate, we watched a movie called "Brothers" that they brought over. It was okay, just strange.

The next morning, Alex and I hung out before I had to go home. We had an amazing time together and I missed him as soon as I got home.

My mom and Ally were coming into town Saturday afternoon so my dad and I picked up Ryann and Ellie then went to the airport. After we picked them up, we went to dinner at Old Chicago. Afterward, Ally and I went to Ryann's apartment. We watched Glee, played bowling on Wii, watched movies and snacked.

Yesterday morning I went home and we hung out and cleaned. Ally and I went swimming and baked chocolate chunk cookies. Then we went to Ryann's to show my mom her mother's day gift from Ellie and to just hang out. Afterward, we all went back to my house for yummy Mexican food. It was a fun weekend. :)
