Test Driving, Relaxation, The Wire and a Birthday (or 3)

Friday after work it started raining. Of course. And who test drives in the rain? Anyone?? We decided to wait until it was over, since it wasn't supposed to last very long. Around 6pm we headed to the Honda dealership to check out the CR-V. We kind of scratched the sedans off of our list as being too small so we narrowed the list to two crossovers. The CR-V was great. It rode like a car (just the way we wanted) and the cargo area was quite large. We had lots of room when we sat in the backseat and it was overall pretty impressive. Just as we imagined it.

Next we headed to the Ford dealership to test drive an Edge. Of course, we loved it. After some thinking, we liked it more than the CR-V. So we started running numbers. Obviously the Edge is more expensive than the CR-V and due to the fact that we're having a baby.. we want to keep the payment as low as possible. So we're probably going with the CR-V. We're about 99% sure at this point. Update: We're not sure about anything now! We went to Isaac's for dinner with a coupon I had and then came home and watched... something. I can't remember.

Saturday morning we were up early for some reason. Boo! To be honest I was pretty lazy all day. I painted my fingernails twice (the first time was a french manicure fail) and I hit the grocery store so I could make 5 layer taco dip (it's probably supposed to be 7 layers but I couldn't think of the other layers, and I liked the 5 I had). I watched lots of TV and also a movie.. which I can't think of the name right now. Wow i'm awesome at forgetting things! I should've been cleaning but the cats were being sleepy and cuddly with each other on the couch, I couldn't bare to scare the be-jesus out of them with the vacuum cleaner. Alex got home and he made Leek/Potato soup for dinner. We probably watched an episode of The Wire, which he's currently into, and I don't usually pay much attention to and we watched probably another movie. I'm terrible at this!!

Sunday, again we were up much to early. I did take the opportunity to vacuum and Alex cleaned the kitchen. Then he watched more of The Wire before we headed to my 2nd cousins birthday party. They do a joint party for the 3 girls and it's super cute! It was too bad that it rained because they have a pool (so lucky) but we still had a great time! I love those birthday parties and hope that they go on for a number of years. The kids are so adorable and say the funniest things. Plus it was nice to be around people since we didn't see too many other people this weekend. And now I want a swimming pool. Gahh!

Thanks for reading about my super awesome weekend. I'll try to amp it up with pictures next weekend, which is sure to be just as boring fun!
