Though I LOVE weekends, I am definitely glad that this one is over! Life is pretty stressful right now: Peter with work, and me with school. Friday night we were able to get out and socialize by going out to Massaki's for dinner with some of our friends. I love Teppanyaki (sp?)!!! It's fun to watch the tricks they do with the food! And the sushi at Massaki's is so fresh that it's really good!

Anyway, Saturday Peter went to play paintball, and Sam got sick. We ended up having to take her to the vet for the second time in two weeks. I am getting soooo tired of cleaning up dog poop in the house. I do give her credit for going on the tile instead of the carpet though. Now she is on medication to clear it up, and hopefully she will get better and stay that way for while. The medication does make her tired and somewhat loopy, but its cute (Im sure thats not what she thinks of it though!).

Today we slept in and took it easy. We really needed it. I hope this week is less stressful!

A Little Piece of Heaven

Today was amazing! I have wanted a waffle for over a month now, and frozen waffles don't count! No, I am NOT pregnant, I just go through phases where I want something...Anyway, I got my waffle today! It was no less than heaven! Thank you Sarah!

I am so glad it's the weekend, because this week seemed to drag on forever! And I am very excited for Valentines Day with Peter. He already gave me my Valentines Day candy and I cant wait for tomorrow! It's one of my favorite holidays because I am hopelessly romantic, and everything is pink!

Happy Weekend!

House HUnting and Other Adventures...

Peter and I looked at a couple of houses today. Though he is more excited about buying a house than I am, it was nice to spend some time together. The houses we looked at today aren't going to work for us, but they were both nice. Hopefully we'll be able to find something we like sooner than later, because Peter is going nuts here. Whenever we tell anyone we rent from PPM, they all respond with "Oh, I'm sorry!" and a rather amusing facial expression.

On another note, Peter was a great husband last night and went to the store at 1am to get me sparkling grape juice (because he drank the sparkling pear juice I really like). It made me happy and I have quite enjoyed it. :)

We (mainly me, Ashley) set this up months ago, but never really used it. So, I figured it would be a good thing to keep up with this year, I guess a New Year's resolution. I got an email this week listing 50 things you did in the last year, so I thought it would be a good way to start...
