What a Great Weekend!

Well, it is Monday...again...funny how the weekend goes by so fast and the weekdays go by so slow. Oh well, it was a great weekend without a doubt. Pete and I had so much fun spending time together. We watched the Steelers vs. Chargers game and of course, Steelers won:) That put my husband in a really good mood, then we watch WFU beat UNC and that put him in a GREAT mood at that point. Sports are his passion so we always have to make time for multiple game days at our house. This is usually a lot of what our weekend consists of. We also worked on 6 loads of laundry on Saturday morning and headed to the gym while they were in the dryer for an hour. We both commented that the next time we do laundry it will be with our OWN BRAND NEW washer and dryer. Not something Liberty's campus has used or our neighbors have used, just ours! We have never had our own washer and dryer so it will be nice to be able to do our clothes the way we want them to be done and keep them nice at the same time.

On Saturday night, we went to see 'Bride Wars' with Anne Hathaway and Kate Hudson. It was such a cute movie and a definite must buy when it comes out on movie. The movie theatre was absolutely crowded as it was a dreary and rainy Saturday night. I have never seen so many pushy and anxious women to see a movie!!! It was insane. Prior to the movie, Pete and I walked around the mall and saw the sadness of many stores going out of business. The mall in Lynchburg really needs an updo with bigger and better shopping. People are sick of the old mall and ready for something different...at least I am:)

I began my search yesterday for our 1 year anniversary vacation destination. We were looking to go somewhere like the Atlantis in the Bahamas, or a cruise, or Hawaii. I began looking for Spa & Resorts in California since we have always wanted to go there and let me tell you there is an abundance of phenominal luxury resorts to choose from. I think that is where we will end up and Pete is so thrilled about that. We absolutely love spas and always have enjoyed being able to get massages together over the years. It is the most relaxing thing to be pampered all day and I am excited to have a 7-10 day pampering:) If any of you reading this have been to a specific resort in Cali that you would recommend, please pass along. We have never been there before and do not want to do the Hollywood aspect of it quite yet, that is our next trip, but just something relaxing with really great food, a top of the line spa, and warm weather:)

Well, we are officially on a countdown of 2 weeks till we move in our new townhome!! We are soooo excited. It has been so much fun being able to get little things here and there to decorate our new home and make it ours. We have things that reflect who we are as a couple and also individual things that make us who we are. My mom is going to come see us as well when we move in, which I am SO excited about. She is thinking of coming the weekend after we move in so that she doesn't feel in the way (like she ever could be:). I understand though she wants to still be able to spend time with Pete and I without the busy time of moving. We have everything pretty much set up to be taken care of the day after closing on the 29th so we feel in good shape. The only thing that always makes me nervous is the apartment inspection. I hate those things and wish we didn't have to go through and clean our apartment or worry about any of it. Oh well, I guess it has to be done. I told Pete that I want to just hire someone to come clean the entire apartment once we move out because we are going to pay that in all the supplies we will have to buy in order to get it in good shape. We will see if that happens or not...

Tonight is another episode of The Bachelor! I cannot wait to see what happens and I am so ready for DeAnna to make her appearance back on the show. I have to say that I love shows like this along with the Hills, The City, Sex & The City, etc. All of the drama is just too good. Pete is always a good sport and watches them with me. He actually enjoys it basically because he can make fun of the people on TV because of all of the drama in their lives:) Well, I am going to get back to work here. I came in at 6:45 this morning and will be here till 5 today...long day ahead. Happy Monday everyone!
