The rest of the weekend...

sierciaThis was, I think, a pretty good weekend.
Friday, I went shopping with Miss Imagy... she got a bunch of stuff, I got less stuff, but we still had fun. Had my favorite sandwich in the entire world for lunch. Then we trekked out to the stitching store to pick up my framed pieces (pictures to follow later today). It was her first visit to the store, and she was a little overwhelmed. I picked up some more of the sachet kits, since the lavender one has been going so quickly (Yay, more Christmas presents!) and a couple spools of metallic to replace the ones I lost so that I can finish one of my WIPs. Other than that I was very good and didn't buy very much.
Came home, after sitting in traffic downtown for an eternity. Went out grocery shopping once Wiley and my brother arrived (and was so distracted at having company that I forgot half the things we needed, and bought about 17 wrong things). Then came home and grilled once the baby went to bed. The boys had big steaks, and I had portobello mushrooms. Yay! Then we set up the DDR mats and were all amazed at how good my brother was at it. I played a little, but my back was still messed up from yoga the night before, so I didn't play too hard.
Saturday, Wiley went off to his frisbee game, and Miss Widget slept in (Yay!). My brother and I were going to re-wander mallwards in hopes of replacing Miss Widget's only-a-month-old, already-outgrown sandals, but found that Wiley had zipped off with the stroller =(. So, we sat around in the house until Wiley got home instead. Hannah napped, we goofed off, mostly. I got some garden tending taken care of (the garden is going bonzai out there). Then we zipped down to Kitchens Etc. to exchange my peppergrinder for a different one (I LOVE my new one!), then over to the mall to try and get new sandals for Miss Widget (another rant on that in a bit). Wiley invited some friends over to hang out and play Munchkin for the evening. They brought over grillables for dinner and so we grilled and hung out and played DDR. Then the boys decided to try and play Virtua Fighter on the DDR pads which was spastic and hysterical. We played Munckin, and there was much backstabbing and petty meanness this time, which is, I think, in the spirit of the game.
My dad came up Sunday and we all went out for Dim Sum again. It was so delicious. Then we came home, Widget didn't nap, AND got to express herself in a whole new artistic medium (see previous poop post). Then we went out geocaching and found both of the caches we set out to find last weekend. We hiked for almost two hours, and I got completely mosquito bitten again. I even put on bug lotion, then they started biting me through my clothes! Do you know how much mosquito bites on your back SUCKS?
Came home, I made turkey burgers for dinner, then Wiley went out to play pool with a friend, and Miss Lorac and Miss Arwen and her Mr. Matt came over to watch the season premiere of Sex and the City with me. We sat and stitched and watched tv, and it was wonderfully relaxing after a very busy weekend. Wiley got home pretty early, and we conked out.
