Weekend Recap

Sorry for the boring title. But that's basically what this post is so why not tell it like it is, right?





We started Friday night with a trip to Yost Arena with Gaucher's. Michigan was playing Lake Superior State and other the the first period, Michigan pretty much dominated. Thanks to Dave we had great seats, but they were just above the plastic wall so we were all a little paranoid...especially when a foul puck flew up over the wall about ten feet from us! Nathan came prepared for a long game with fruit snacks to share. Dave demanded a seat change after the first period so that he and Nate could have "Man-Time" as they called it. I was more than pleased to chat Meg's ear off for the next hour! We had just as much fun watching the undergrads across the rink as we did watching the game. Uncle Buck, the Turqoise Viking and the Nerdbomber were quite the entertainment when following the puck got old. We're really going to miss them...but that's for another post...




On Saturday I did our grocery shopping for the week (yahoo...NOT!) and Nate watched some of the Michigan basketball game at his friend Bryan's. Then Saturday night was the main attraction! Ross Follies 2009!!!! We were planning to drive to the show with Gaucher's but an unstartable car from the babysitter meant that only Dave got to see the show. (We missed you Meghan!!!) Two acts, lots of laughs and of course Nathan's generous sharing of fruit snacks later we found ourselves at Fraser's Pub. Fraser's is within walking distance of our house and they serve PBR on tap. FOr these two simple reasons, Dave and Nate are both big fans of our local dive bar. I went for the first time on Saturday, I managed to convince the boys to get a bucket of decent beer instead of PBR. Pheew...



Today we went for a nice walk outside. It was in the 40's so we took advantage of it! Sampson thought he'd died and gone to heaven when we returned home from an hour and a half later. We spent the rest of our day picking out registry items. Nate actually had some good insight and was WAY more interested than I'd expected he'd be. We're almost done which will be so great to have off our list of things to-do for the wedding!



Now we're going to run to Coldstone Creamery for some of these babies! I think we might end up fighting over a red-velvet cake ice cream cup...Yum!!!
