Great Weekend

Well, another weekend has come and gone. We had a pretty good time this weekend. On Friday night, we went to watch Happy Feet. It was not as good as we were hoping for, but not bad. We were 2 of the oldest people in the theater. At least the oldest that were unaccompanied by parents or grandparents. The best part was, we went to the 7:25 showing so we were able to be home by 9:30. We made a frozen pizza for dinner and were in bed by 10:30. Yep, we’re getting old, I guess.

Saturday morning we were up early to head down to Starkville. We met my parents at 11 at Harvey’s for lunch. Lunch was okay, but nothing spectacular. I remember when I was in college I used to LOVE Harvey’s. For some reason it doesn’t seem as good as it used to. Maybe its because when I was in college, I only had McDonald’s and Taco Bell to compare with Harvey’s. Still, it was an enjoyable lunch. Especially because of the company. Maybe next time we’re in Starkville we can eat at the Veranda. That’s where Laura and I had our first date.

Mississippi State lost the game. I know it is hard to believe that Arkansas beat us, but it is true. In all seriousness, we did actually put up a pretty good fight. We ended up getting home around 8 on Saturday night. We went to Kroger, watched about 30 minutes of Capote, and went to bed. We laughed at ourselves when we got in bed and looked over at the clock. It wasn’t even 10 yet! I guess driving half the day will wear you out.

Sunday afternoon I got to work some more on the crib. I put almost all of the hardware on and put it together. I bought some cam bolts to put the back on with. They seem to work pretty well, but leave a slight gap in places. Nothing very noticeable (well, by anyone except for me). The crib looks pretty good though. I need to take it back apart, spray the clear polyurethane on it and reassemble. I think I may actually be done with it before we get the bedding back from the lady that is making it. I’m really ready to get this done. It has been fun working on it and I’m pretty pleased with the results.
