Pretty Great Weekend

I feel good today looking ahead to a productive week and a long weekend next week. My weekend, to say the least, was almost perfect. Although nothing exciting happened, it was the perfect amount of fun/productive/restful/and busy. Friday night Matt and I met up with his bother, sister-in-law and nephew for some Teak and ice cream. It's always so much fun hanging out with them; his sister-in-law is one of my BMs and we get along SO well! We really bonded on vacation and she has been a huge help to me with wedding planing and all. We LOVE Teak, it's one of our favorite places, so combine great food with great people makes for a pretty good night!


Saturday was pretty busy but great, too. Matt won a $100 gift certificate to James Free Jewelers so we went up there to take a look. We hoped to fimd Matt a wedding ring there, but we found that place to be RIDICULOUSLY over-priced. He wanted something simple.... it didnt even have to be all gold-- but the one he wanted was over $400 bucks. Totally not worth it. I looked at wedding bands just for fun-- LOVED a few-- but of course was not willing to pay a ton. We left and went down the road to the mall. And again we were SUPER productive. I got my ring re sized at a jeweler and it was so cheap! They were busy so we just wondered around for a couple hours; went to Macy's to add things on our registry (and didnt fight about anything!), and even managed to get Matt a new pair of jeans at J-Crew (he needed them so bad, he wears his jeans rugged). I got my ring back and it looks SO tiny!! It fit nice and snug, i dont think I will ever take it off. So far I haven't; not sleeping, in the shower, at all..... Mr. N (Matt's dad) says if it fits right I wil never have to take it off or worry about it unless I am dating other men. ha ha. And I shouldn't have to worry about scatching or hurting it either.


Saturday night Matt and I went to Habeneros for dinner and to Hofbrauhaus-- which was crowded but a good time hanging out with my friends. No drama, stress free good time. Sunday we went to church, then to Penn Station (matt's favorite), and then to have fun registering at Bed Bath and Beyond-- and no fighting again!! We went grocery shopping together, came back to my apartment and MAJORLY cleaned, cooked dinner together and even watched Desperate Housewives together. The whole weekend, it was great! Hopefully next weekend (the long weekend) can follow suite.


Now, I have been picture tagged by Wolf with simple directions:

) Choose the 4th folder where you store your pictures on your computer

2) Select the 4th picture in the folder

3) Explain the picture

4) Tag 4 people to do the same


This will be interesting considering I am on my work computer... but here goes.

This picture is quite old-- 2 years plus... or whenever I ran the Flying Pig Relay with Matt, P and J... this was before matt and I even officially started dating. I pulled this picture so that we could brain storm ideas and create a t-shirt for our team. We didnt even end up using this image. Wow this was a while ago.

Since i dont even think i have 4 people reading my blog it's not worth tagging others... but thanks Wolf, my bloggy friend.

Time to start Monday and get more work done!
