Let it snow....

So, I hope everyone enjoyed Jon's blog post from Thursday night. I just re-read it again and still laughed hysterically. I am watching the snow fall - it so pretty!! We had a pretty good weekend but we were not as productive as I wanted to be. Friday night, I got back from Auburn (which was fun - I want to go back and do it all over:) and Jon and I met up with some friends at our new-found watering hole - Miller's Ale House. Uhh....you can't beat $5 pitchers, $1.95 beer, $2.00 Skky Vodka drinks, etc. So a nice big shout-out to Miller's Ale House. We had a great time! Saturday comes and it's so gross outside. I am feeling lazy so I let Jon win the argument about not returning the fridge and getting the rest of the appliances due to the rain. We had plans to go to a birthday party for a friend's two-year old and then go and meet up with some friends from work. So, we stop by Toys 'R Us on the way to the party and I stock up some Elmo toys I actually could have easily spent more but Jon put the kabosh on that. I worry how this will translate into our children since I will probably need some restraint from buying OUR kids any and everything in the store.

Anyway, Jon had looked up directions on Google and we were off. We pull into what we think is the neighborhood but the street that the house is off is nowhere in site. We drive around, thinking we missed something - we didn't. Jon calls some people, I call some people to find out where the hell this place is. No one answers because I am sure they're enjoying themselves at the party we can't find. After driving around a little more, we say screw it...what else could we do? So, we decided to go meet up with Stacy and Shane earlier than expected. I would like to give a shout-out to Stacy and Shane and their house which looks amazing. The photos do not even do the granite justice and the tile backsplash is gorgeous. Stacy was so kind and even let me have her samples as I talk Jon into putting that in our kitchen:)

We hang out there for awhile and then proceed to pub crawl it to a few different bars in the area over the course of the evening. We had a lot of fun!! On the way back to Stacy and Shane's, my passenger window decides not to roll up. Awesome!!! We decided to stay and Stacy and Shane's house instead of trekking it back up to Alpharetta and thank GOD for the UGA 'carport' Shane had just put up the day before. That really helped with the torrential rains and my window not rolling up. We get up this morning and Shane and I laugh as Jon tapes a garbage bag to the window so we can make it home with the window. Hilarity ensues....

First of all, the sound was SOO loud and I was not exactly feeling all that great this morning, if you know what I mean. We hop on 285 and the bag is flying all over the place and the tape is completely useless. Jon starts to sing a song over the noise to attempt to drown it out but that only makes things worse and I think I might just jump out of the car at this point!! In any event, we finally make it home...just in time for the snow to start falling. I hear it's supposed to be really cold tonight so I don't know what the hell I am going to do about my window. I thought about working from home tomorrow so I could take it in but I just looked at my day and it looks pretty brutal tomorrow so we shall see. Now, Jon and I are on our third scary movie of the day...we decided to make it a scary movie marathon day.

On another note, I have taken four pregnancy tests in the last four day and they have all been negative:( I think it's still a little early to test but I am really the epitome of impatient. So, wish me luck when I test again later this week. Oh who am I kidding...I will test again tomorrow morning.

LOL only you and Jon! That is hilarious! But of course sucks - hate car malfunctions! I so wish we could have met up with you guys! We got ready and everything but we couldn't get in touch with Stacy. Boo! Sounds like you had a blast though and i'm sure you enjoyed the scary movie marathon - we did lord of the rings today!

hey! i just caught up on your blogs since the Alli one.... I had given up on you for a while since i kept checking and no new posts and now all of a sudden I have 10 new posts to read! I am so sorry that I could not get to my phone and that you all got lost.... it makes for a good story though! Maybe that just makes for a good excuse to come over and see Cabe and have dinner one night after work! (or lunch!)

and you sound like me with the rate you are going through pregnancy tests.... raph banned me from taking them until I was two days late at one point. he told me he should have bought stock in pregnancy tests at the rate I was going through them. patience is a virtue, but i hate that virtue!

how is your knee and your mom? ill say some prayers for her. and for your fridge!
