Great weekend
The Saint and I really enjoyed our time with the nephew this weekend. He and The Saint spent countless hours playing XBox and/or PS2 games. I am woefully ignorant when it comes to the world of video games so I went to bed Friday night while the two of them stayed up until 3:30 am playing Star Wars and NCAA football games.
On Saturday, after the boys FINALLY rolled out of bed around 1 pm, I dragged them to Bed Bath and Beyond so I could buy a new pillow. While we were there, I found this other pillow that is so soft, I just had to buy a purple one. I told The Saint to get a blue one for himself but he wouldn't and now every chance he gets, he's stealing my bean. The bean. That's the name I came up with for my new pillow because it kinda reminds me of a jellybean.
After BB&B, we took NF to Barnes & Noble and bought him the new Harry Potter book. I finished it Sunday night and he finished it Monday night. Loved it. Can't wait for Book 7!
Next we headed to Al Capone's Hideaway for dinner. We thought NF would get a kick out of it and he did. It truly is a hideaway because every time we've gone there, we've gotten lost. They have really good food and friendly service. My only suggestion would be to remove the pictures of dead gangsters from the menu. Not very appetizing.
Sunday we went miniature golfing in 98 degree heat. Gross. Afterwards, we immediately went right back to our nicely air conditioned house, The Saint did his usual magnificent job of grilling and after dinner took NF to his other uncle's house for a sleepover. Sunday was also Ronan's (fur baby #4) first birthday. How fast they grow up!
I've been walking on the treadmill every day and trying to increase my time. The 5K is less than 2 weeks away and I'd really love to beat my time from my last 5K but, I don't think I'll be able to. We'll see.
The Chicago White Sox are 62-29! Yeah, baby.
