Hi there!  It's been quite a while, I think, since I last blogged.  Just  like everyone else's life, there has been SO much going on --in just  about every part of my (and "our") life!! --some GREAT and amazing and  some painful and overwhelming . . .
Well, I just had to blog  about our weekend . . .
I enjoyed almost every part of the  weekend (yes, "almost" :(  )
We had date night on Friday.  Kryssa  spent the night at Grandma and Grandpa's house.  So, Chris and I went to  Red Robin for dinner and we ate at the Bar, which is a date night feel  for us because w/ Kryssa we HAVE to sit at a table.  ha ha --the little  things that excite me . . . being able to sit at the bar (not to drink  it up, lol!  Just to "change things up a bit" -because we always sit at  tables when we're out as a family . . . so going out, just the two of  us, means that we can do things differently!!  get it?! lol).  Then we  went to the Palladium for a 'late' (11:45pm) showing of   Hancock.  We  thought it was a really great movie (can I say that?  "Really great"?   haha, I don't even remember what words go together . . .).  
Saturday,  I got UNINTERRUPTED sleep (yay!!) and got to sleep in until 10:30am!!  Woohoo!!!  I met up w/ a friend and visited a British Tea House for  lunch -no children w/ us, just good 'ol gal time.  It was so much fun  --except they didn't have the variety of tea we thought they would  :( .   So, we plan on trying out a new one real soon.  Then Chris and Kryssa  joined in on the fun and our two families BBQ'd some yummy yummy steaks  and corn cob . . . it was a late night of eating great food, playing  cards, and laughing until we cried (and snorted)!! lol --good times,  good times!
Sunday morning, we met up at Mimi's Cafe w/ some old  friends, that were in town, and had breakfast - Yummy food!! :D  After  that we headed to my parent's house because my sis was in town and we  wanted to stop by for a quick "hello" before they headed back to Austin.   After already having a very nice weekend, it got even better when I  got to SHOP (while Chris was at the Apple Store at La Cantera -standing  in line for 2 hrs just to buy his new iPhone)!!  woohoo!! ha ha.  I got  some clothes, shoes, sleepy time attire and other little nik-naks . . .  Kryssa got plenty of outfits too (about 10 outfits -dresses and some  shorts and shirt sets)!! :)  We bought some little gifts for Kryssa's  birthday, etc.  I was at the store waaaaaayyyyyy too long -but after all  that shopping, we ate at Cosi, at The Rim, w/ Chris's dad.  It was a  super great weekend!  
We have soooo much to do to get ready for  Kryssa's bday party, which we're really behind on, unfortunately.  :(   So, this week will probably only be busier than the last --but Chris is  off on Wednesday and we are hoping to finally use our Schlitterbahn  tickets, that we got from an HEB promotion, back in June, for FREE!!!!!!   Woohoo!!
This is the part of the year that I call "the holiday  snowball" --Once our anniversary passes (which it did, July 6) we just  have to hold on tight and keep breathing until about March or April,  when everything calms down again . . . birthday after birthday, holiday  after holiday and more birthdays . . . here it comes and I'm super  excited! :D   Oooh, because we have a few vacations mixed in all that,  again this year.
Wow, well, that's an update, i guess . . .
Have  an amazing week!
:)
