Weekend

We had a fun but busy weekend. Yesterday we went to Tross' football game. They played great! Vitross improves so much every year. This year he loves playing defense. They have him playing QB and he's a receiver. The games are a lot of fun.

After the game we had a friends engagement party. They are getting married in February and Dylan is in the wedding. We had a really good time and it was nice to see some old friends.

We went to a Halloween party later in the evening. That was where the fun was. Its always entertaining to see grown men and women dressed up in costumes, trying to have normal conversations.

Dylan had a football game this afternoon and they won. He scored a touchdown! YEAH!

He will live

Dad made it through surgery. I guess the Dr. said there was more damage than they originally thought. The whole septum was shattered so he said he repaired it, "The best he could." I'm with Barbara and not sure I like how that sounded, but we will see how he heals. Hopefully he will be able to breath out of his nose now. Thats the ultimate goal. I still haven't talked to him, he was sleeping when Barbara called yesterday afternoon to say he made it, and probably sleeping when I called him last night or maybe he just didn't feel like talking.

Its probably best that we don't talk for a day or 2, he is GEERRRRUUMMMPPEEEEE when he isn't feeling well, and having to sleep upright for 2 days will make you grumpy no matter how you feel.

Dad

Most of you are aware that Dad broke his nose a couple weeks ago. He damaged some of the inside that needs to be repaired so he can breathe. He is having out-patient surgery today so please say a little prayer.

Registering

Registering Sucks!

Dylan and I went to Home Deport this weekend to register. I would not suggest registering at Home Depot to ANYONE, EVER! We were excited. We show up thinking that we are getting one of those scanner guns and we will just walk through the store scanning what we want. HAHAHA, not so much. This store and ALL other Home Depots are totally out dated! Our excitement was shattered when we were told we had to get a pen and paper and write down every SKU by hand, then bring it back up to the desk and they will enter it into the system. WHAT?!?!?!? We were like, your kidding, right? No, they weren't.

Many many hours later, we bring them our 20 sheets of paper (not really but it felt like it) and they keyed it in. As she is keying it I'm having small talk with her, asking if the SKU's are the same, nation wide, you would think they have to be since some people will probably buy things online or in another store. Well, I assumed wrong. They are not the same numbers, so then the wheels start turning in my head. After asking a few more questions, she tells me that if you register in the store, the gifts can only be purchased in the store. If you create a registry online, you can only buy the gifts online. They are totally seperate entities. What kind of thinking is that??? So basically, if you live in Egypt you would have to go to your local Home Depot buy the gift, then mail it on your own. Or if we registered online, you would have to go online, order your gift, pay for shipping, and hope it arrives on time, even if you live next to or inside of a Home Depot Store.

We are driving home after our 3 1/2 hours there and decide...SCREW THIS. So we have wasted all day in Home Depot, but at least we know what we want and need. We are now canceling the registry and going to Sears. Home Depot needs to come to the 21st Century, then we will think about shopping there again.

Engagement Party

We had an Engagment Party saturday night at my Mom's house. We had a really good time and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves as well. Here are some pictures.

Cars

Dad's been asking for some pics of the new ride(s)
-Silver one is Dylan's...its the same as his last car but a different color. It was dark when I took the picture as you can tell so its not the best picture.
-Black one is mine.

How Bout Dem Boys!

Oh my Goodness...Did you see that Cowboys game last night? We stayed up till the very end and it was a GREAT game. It's been a REALLY long time since I last got this excited about a football game! GO COWBOYS!

The Lion King

I went to see The Lion King last night with Vicki and the boys. My favorite part was The Circle of Life song.

It wasn't over till 11pm! Seeing that that is WAY passed the boys bed time (We had no idea it was going to be that late!) they both fell asleep about 2 songs from the end.

I really enjoyed it and would recommend it to others, if its ever in your town!
