Sunday fun....

Since Dennis has 3 day weekends, we've decided to take a little trip every weekend. We get cabin fever if we're cooped up for to long. On Sunday our friends called us to see if we wanted to hang out. They live a couple hours away from us so we try and meet in the middle. It's great because we get to explore new towns.

We met up with Josh, Erica, and their cute son Conner in a city called Orange. Dennis and I left a little early because we noticed that James Madisons house was in that city. The house was huge, and beautiful. They restored the outside, and our currently working on the inside. The volunteers did a good job painting an image in our heads, but it would be nice to come back when we have kids and see the changes to the inside.

The house had a ridiculous amount of land, and on the land they had horses. They were beautiful. Dennis and I decided to check them out. One finally came to our side so we pet him and after that all the horses wanted us to pet them.

After touring the house, we met up with our friends for dinner. We went to a steak place for dinner, I didn't have steak though. We had yummy crab dip for an appetizer and I had a cesar salad for my meal. It was really good, and we enjoyed our time with our friends. It's so nice to get out and hang out with some long time friends.

NO, I have not fallen off the face of the Earth.

Sorry I have not updated my blog in a a while, but I've been pretty sick. All last week I could barely get out of bed without having to head to the bathroom. Luckily, I'm feeling better now.

There hasn't been that many updates with our lives. We're still looking at houses and possibly getting a new car as well. My check engine light just came on ($700 to fix it!) Since my car is small and breaking every year we decided it was probably time to upgrade to a bigger car. We'll need a car to haul stuff to the new house when we get one.

That's all I can think about today.
