Ok, so the weekend went pretty well. We had the big company picnic on Saturday and although the food was still pretty lame, the kids had fun and we stayed for a good two hours without being too bored. Plus, we got the $100 gift cheque. Yeah, baby!
Saturday afternoon we BBQ'd at Steve and Cathy's, and did a little swimming in the pool. S&C had bought us a grill at a garage sale earlier in the day. It's a bit newer than the one we had before, and it has a light for night grilling. Sweet! It was really nice of them to think of us.
Saturday night I went out to the neighborhood bar. Steve had been bartending there Saturday nights but gave the shift to his nephew Doug, and Saturday was Doug's first night tending solo. The bar was pretty quiet but we got into playing some pool and I ended up staying a little later (and drinking a little more) than I should have. As a result I missed out on getting booty AND I was feeling pretty miserable Sunday morning. You'd think I'd learn my lesson with age, but I still have to have the occasional night out where I kick my ass to remind myself I can't drink like I did back when I was 22.
Sunday the family went to Adventureland. Due to the previous night's activities, I was a little slow at the start of the day but after a nice greasy lunch and some high fructose corn syrup I was back in the game. Julian went off with his Oma for some bigger rides while the girls did some smaller stuff together. The girls are sooo cute together sometimes. I love watching them explore stuff together. They get so proud, and Emma especially gets this look on her face like "check ME out!". Bethany didn't go on any rides but she said she had fun watching. All in all it was a nice day.
The work week has started off slow but I have a goal to get all caught up by midweek. Yesterday wasn't very productive for me but it was due to more little things that kept popping up than me slacking. I should do better today (I hope).
