Danny had duty Friday night. The original plan was "I have an empty house...I'm going to invite the girls over." But then, I was like "We have all been stuck in our houses all week because of this friggin rain...we are going out!" And I was shocked...ten of us went out to eat! TEN! On a weekend, when the guys were home. See why I was shocked? I honestly still can not get over it!
A lot of bloggers went out, some I was meeting for the first time. My awesome friends Katie, Carmen and Breanna were all there. Non-bloggers Natosha, Rachel and Leanna. Then there were some new bloggy-love-faces! Jennifer, Jacque, and Rachel (and Ariana!) I seriously had such a good time! It was sooo good to get everyone together and enjoy a night out with the girls. I think we're going to start making it a monthly thing. LOVE IT!
Me and Natosha spent all day at a LINKS class on Saturday (the guys golfed, of course!) If you have read Married to the Military, it basically covers the entire class. HOWEVER, it's just great hearing someone actually explain things to you, breakdown an LES, and hear questions that you might not have thought of. Of course the budgeting, moving, and volunteer sections were my favorite. I hate hate hate "getting to know you" games...so I could have done without those! I will say, it was extra special because it was just our MAG, so we all had the same issues and questions. We met some COs, FROs, Chaplains, and they all made sure we had a great time!
Saturday night was date night. Much needed. We had an awesome appetizer, stuffed portobello mushroom. Oh.My.Goodness. DELISH! I ordered the lamb chops. I knew it tasted different but I kept thinking "well maybe it's just the marinade." But, I know my meat! I knew it wasn't lamb! They gave me pork. FAIL!
This morning I had brunch with Katie. Did some wedding talk, life talk, and the usual chit-chat. It's so strange, I saw her more when I wasn't living in Jacksonville than I do now! I can't believe she is getting married in 3 months! Speaking of which, I need to pick up my dress from David's Bridal this week.
We still have the full day ahead of us, but it looks like crappy New England weather out there today. And Danny is playing X-Box repair man right now...so I can't even use it to watch movies right now! I'm thinking it's a good day to start a new book!
Hope everyone is having a fantastic weekend!
