Our weekend...

Yes, I know, it's so exciting to read!

Anyways, this weekend, we went to see the new Star Trek movie - although, it's not really new, but you know what I mean.. We saw it because my Aunt Maura insisted it was a great movie, and if we saw that one, she in turn would see The Dark Knight which Rob and I think is brilliant (because it is!) I must saw, though I am not a Trekkie (however you spell it) fan, I was pleasantly surprised with how good the movie was. I thought the acting was pretty good, and an overall good story. Not the best movie, but if they made more movies and made it a series, I would go see them.

After the movie was over, we hung around the house for a little bit, and then went and met my sister Catherine, Aunt Jo, and Uncle Bill for dinner at Mary'z - my sister's favorite place to eat when she comes to Houston. Not my favorite, but it was still good. Afterwards, we went back to Aunt Jo's house and played a game of Spades. Rob was my parter, and I think it was good to play that game so Rob and I could get a feel on how to read each other.. Not that it worked out often, but, it was still a lot of fun, and we ended up doing pretty good!

On Sunday, we went over to my brother-in-law Wes' house to have a meal with the family. It ended up being Rob, me, Sam, Peggy, Kelly, Wes, and Sherri. Kelly has been living in Ohio for about 10 months or so, and finally just came back a few days ago, so we are just getting together to celebrate her being home and be around family. Rob and I were so excited (and awesome!) that we made a really good chocolate cake with vanilla icing which I decorated really cute! We all had lunch which was super yummy, and then we played the dvd game Scene-It. After messing with that for a while we played Swap, and finally we played Five Crowns. We had a good time visiting and playing games. We are looking forward to spending more time with them this upcoming weekend for the 4th of July!

I finish the blog with a picture of the cake Rob and I made today!
