Fabulous Weekend

We had a productive and really fun weekend ...


On Friday we bought a DVD burner which is pretty exciting stuff ... at least for David and I ...


On Saturday we went to my parents house with Sharon, Steve, Andrew, Jason, Jenny and Eliana and had a birthday party for Jenny and an anniversary party for Jason and Jenny ... we really had a great time ... my mom made lasagna and we had the funniest cake ... my mom got a carrot cake and for some reason when she opened the box it looked like the cake had exploded ... it was fine at the store but it was in a bunch of pieces ... so my mom stuck a votive candle in the center for Jenny to blow out ... it was pretty funny ...


Today David and I took a trip to Target ... which we won't have to travel so far soon ... [in March there will be a new one right down the street from our house] ... so we went to Target to do a little shopping and ours is a 2 story Target ... there is actually an escalator for the shopping cart ... it is a pretty cool set up but years ago when my mom and I were there we put a cart on that has something on the bottom that actually fell off and jammed the system ... my mom walked away laughing her ass off and I had to stand there and wait for someone to unjam the thing ... today about half way up the cart made a loud sound just one time and David said, "Is that what it sounded like when it happened to you?" ... I told him it didn't really make any noise and then all of a sudden the cart was stuck and making the loudest most obnoxious sound ... it was crazy ... and we both just started laughing ... they had to shut the escalator off ... some guy had to slide down from the top and he couldn't get the cart unjammed ... and it wasn't because I had something on the bottom ... the system just jammed ... so he started pushing it back down all the while making this huge racket ... drawing attention from everyone who was shopping for school supplies at the top of the escalator ... a crowd started to form and a woman walked by and said, "To be honest with you I am so glad that is your cart rather than mine" ... eventually they got the system to work again and we finally got our stuff but it sure was funny ...


tonight we went to the local Silver Diner for their car show ... some of the most beautiful cars from the 40's, 50's and 60's ... we took some great photos and I'll download them soon ... there really were some fantastic cars ... we walked around for a long time checking out cars and taking pictures and then had dinner at the diner ... it was a great evening and really a fun weekend ...


and now it is time to kick back ... watch some TV and get ready for a new week of work ... :)
