Fun, But Not Too Much

We are nearing the end of the most recent audio book which is "The Time Traveler's Wife" and I have to say that I loved it, but I am reluctant to go and see the movie because it may be a tear jerker. Kyla and I both have become so enveloped with the story that we are almost sad that it will end soon and I suppose we will quickly have to replace it with something else. It has been very good though and I would certainly recommend it to anybody. This week and weekend wasn't all that eventful for me, but I did have some to report.

Mom, Dee Dee, and I went out to the fish fry at Mirimichi on Friday night. For those of you out there that have no idea what I am talking about, Mirimichi is a very nice, newly made-over golf course that Justin Timberlake re-did and now owns and operates. It used to be Big Creek golf course which is where he learned to play golf as a young kid, so when it was put up for sale he quickly felt sentimental. He has turned what was just a couple of golf holes into the beginnings of a beautiful resort. We were completely overwhelmed and awed by how pretty everything was in comparison from what it used to be. A couple of beers and good friends made for a great time out at the fish fry. New location for Girl's Night? Possibly. If you have a chance, please get out there and take a quick look and bring your golf clubs if you can play. It was wonderful.

Pool time was entertaining as it normally is and we drank as we normally do, but this weekend I broke a float! Can you believe that? So Saturday night after dinner with Big we had to run to Target so that I could replace that one that had a blow out. Going to Target with Big always helps me connect to my inner child because it brings his out and into the open. He loves toys!!! One of these days he will make one of those great Daddies that really enjoys playing with his kiddos and this makes me fall even harder when I think of it. All of the Transformers, GI Joe's, Star Wars and Hot Wheels are just almost too tempting for him. His nephew is almost at that age where those are what he wants, but Grey is far away from being there. He does have a toy box in every single room in our house, but for right now they are sweet little singing toys, not the angry looking figurines that we were looking at. Nothing makes him happier than to remember the ease and simplicity of his childhood, so I enjoy just watching him relive a happy time.
I told you guys it wasn't a very crazy weekend, but I have to say that it has been nice just not doing much of nothing.
Until next time, go see The Time Traveler's Wife because I have a suspicion that it will be great.
