an evening with cute children followed by a rock show

Greetings, my dears! Hope everyone had a fabulous weekend. Mine was pretty darn good, but it flew by too quickly, as always. We had a relaxing evening at home on Friday night. A much needed relaxing evening at home. We watched a movie and then I headed to bed to read for awhile. I slept for nearly 10 hours! (Well, I got up at 5:00 AM to feed the kitties but then managed to get back to sleep.) I felt so refreshed; it was awesome.



Saturday evening we went to visit S. Mama and her family which includes one husband, four extremely adorable children and two very friendly cats. We had a blast. The kids are so entertaining, full of charm and personality. They are such great kids and I love hanging out with them. (We are going to miss them greatly when we are in New Mexico.) Once Sadie, the almost two-year old, got comfortable with us, she kept wanting to sit with me on the couch, and that made me feel like a million bucks. Seriously. I don't know what it is, but there is something so special about a little person wanting to hang out with me. Meet Sadie...



...look at those eyes! Beautiful.

Lulu, the almost four-year old, is quite precocious and has a crush on Will. She also has a crush on the hockey player, Sidney Crosby. So when the hockey game came on, she said something about watching her boyfriend Sidney Crosby. I said to her, "I thought Will was your boyfriend...don't you think he might get jealous that you are watching Sidney Crosby?" She sighed and replied, "Yeah, I know, everyone wants to be my boyfriend!" Hilarious.



We hung out for a few hours and then headed over to Brillobox for the Wax Fang/Centipede E'est show. Neither Will nor I were totally in the mood to be out late, but I really wanted to see both these bands and I have to say, they did not disappoint. Both bands played awesome sets. I'd never seen Wax Fang (from Louisville) before and it'd been way too long since I'd seen Centipede. They both rocked. Very happy that we managed to get ourselves there.





It was an excellent night all-around. Sunday was a lovely day as well, but I'll get to that later as this post is rather long already and I don't have the Sunday pictures ready to go yet! More soon.
