weekend fun

This weekend, Big Guns and I took it easy. We were both feeling pretty worn out from our crazy schedule. Friday night I worked till seven, so we ordered a pizza when i came home and went to bed not too long after. On Saturday morning we got up and took care of some errands we had to do, including food shopping for the 'big game' on Sunday. We settled on ribs and twice baked potatoes. We decided to go out to dinner on Saturday night. Big Guns and I changed our clothes and made sure we looked all nice. A few weeks ago we had gotten some coupons in the mail for a nearby restaurant, so we decided to branch out on our options and give it a try. It reminded me of a cross between Bonanza and Wendy's. You stood in line with your tray and could choose either a hamburger dinner or a chicken sandwich dinner. I went for the chicken dinner because it came with dessert, and Big Guns got the burger-milkshake combo. Our total came to 23 dollars, and we had two ten dollar coupons. They let us use both of them, probably because they felt bad that we had spiffed ourselves up to go there, so we each had dinner for abouit $1.50. The food was pretty good. I was surprised that I liked it, and I really had fun. We had to put a big cutout of a milkshake on our table so the waitress would know where to bring it. As it happened, next door, there was a free wine tasting going on, so we decided to check it out. Big Guns has spurred my taste for wine on. My favorites so far are lindeman's and coastal estates. I was more excited though because it was FREE!! I get my love for all things cheap or free from my grandmother. You just can't beat a night out on the town that costs $1.50 per person. Go us!! After that excitement, we were worn out (it was like 7:30!), so we went home, watched a movie, and went to bed. Then Sunday was church and the big game. I'm sure Big Guns will fill you all in on that part of our weekend. Next weekend we are going to North Conway to celebrate our anniversary. Our first date was up there, so we're going to go back to reminisce and smooch. I can't wait! :)
