Our Weekend Adventures

Our weekend started with a stop at Borders books - a guy was in line in front of us with his hand down the back of his pants, but I'll spare you the photo :) I actually took one LOL

Then we had dinner at On The Border. I had never been there, but we had a gift card to use, so we gave it a try - I was not impressed with the food. Doug, however, found a dessert he REALLY likes. He said he would go there just for this dessert. It was the Sizzling Apple Crisp and it really sizzled. They pour the topping over the ice cream and when it hits the hot skillet it boils and sizzles.Saturday: After I went to my laser appointment, we both got our hair cut. Here are photos from mine...my last haircut was May last year. The first photo is blurry because I couldn't seem to get a good one.Thanks for our haircuts Debbie!
We also went to dinner on Saturday night, we went with Debbie & Kevin and their daughter Rachel to celebrate not having to do the dishes. :) We went to Doug's favorite restaurant, Claim Jumpers. We had a lot of fun spending time with Kevin, Debbie and Rachel.

Sunday we headed to my parent's house to celebrate my step-dad's birthday. He made us homemade popcorn in his little popcorn popper, adding "Microwave popcorn sucks!"

It was kinda funny to watch my step-dad make popcorn because he's left handed and the door is for right handed people. He would fill the measuring cups and spoons with what he needed, then try to hold the door open with his right hand and reach through with his left hand.I got a photo of the decorations they've added to the outhouse:And now time for critter pictures:
My step-dad walked out to feed the deer and they came running as usual.I was trying to make friends with the tiny frogs: (there's a little frog by the hose at the top of this barrel)Thanks to my mom for a yummy dinner and my step-dad for having a birthday - we hope you enjoy the olives and Pico Pica for many meals to come :)

Doug took some sunset photos for me on the way home:

It was a great, but busy weekend; it was nice to do something different than the normal.

Looks like such a fun weekend! Glad to see Doug is still going to Claim Jumpers. I think we (a big group of people) all went there at Doug's request once as a group of friends. That place is so yummy!
