Family Weekend

In less than a week, Derrick will be 25! He has been looking forward to this for one reason...his car insurance will go down slightly! Derrick's not a big birthday person, but I like to make him feel special! Derrick started his weekend on Friday night going to Stu's house for a backyard fire and beers, while I decided to stay in and relax, and just rest from the week.

My Aunt Jayne was in town to visit so we headed to O'Fallon Saturday morning. Me, my mom, gram, and Jayne went to Bed Bath and Beyond because they wanted to see all the stuff we registered for. Derrick dropped me off at my parents house and went and met Curt at Bass Pro, I'm glad I opted out of that one...My parents wanted to celebrate Derrick's birthday so my mom made an excellent dinner, Peggy and Kevin, Gram and aunt came over. (My mom also made bananas foster for dessert :) For the rest of the night we hung out there...pretty laid back night.

We had to leave pretty early though because Derrick's sister Mindy and her son were stopping by on their way back to KC. It was really good to see them...Jonathan is 11 months now and walking everywhere!!! I really didn't care about watching the Mizzou vs. KC basketball game today so I decided to go shopping! I got Derrick's birthday presents and did a little shopping for myself, which I hadn't done in a while. I came home to Charlie and Derrick sitting on our couch with beers in their hands waiting for me to get home to rent movies and to go eat (such a boy thing to do...) (Charlie's girlfriend Liz is in PA.) We quickly went to Red Box rented some movies and picked up Chinese (which was excellento by the way :) It has been a nice quiet Sunday afternoon :)

Another week starts tomorrow... :(
