Surprise date night!

Scott surprised me when he got home from work last night with tickets to the new Indiana Jones movie! I had mentioned that I wanted to see it but really didn't think he would want to go opening night but I was wrong (don't tell Scott I mentioned I was wrong about something) and I couldn't wait to go. I got home a little earlier than Scott and wasn't feeling well so I had already put on my PJ's for a night at home but as soon as I found out we were going to the movies I quickly got ready and we headed out for the movie. We got our usual popcorn and chocolate and waited in the lobby for about 20 min with the rest of the crowd and then we got in and found our seats. We did find us 2-3 more movies that will be coming out over the next 3 months that we would like to go see and then it was time for the feature presentation. I really didn't know what to expect as I loved the older Indy movies and usually the sequels never measure up but we went in with an open mind and it was both very funny and action packed and will definitely buy it when it comes out. After we left the theatre we ended up going out and getting strawberry shortcake so needless to say we were both stuffed when we got home but it was so worth it as we had a wonderful time. Scott and I have said that it seems like we haven't even been home lately or even gotten a chance to have some time for the two of us so this was a much needed night for the two of us. We will be back up at Mom and Dad's this weekend because now that Scott and his brother have finished Scott's smoker (should arrive at my house today) they have had orders for two more!!! I have to admit they did an exceptional job on Scott's and who knows they might have found a little business on the side for the two of them and I have pics of it below. The only thing is these are very time consuming to make so I guess I will just have to move into Mom and Dad's...giggle. Maybe once the baby gets here we will spend some time at home and we can slow down a little but who am I kidding we may be able to stay home but with a new baby I guess the slowing down can be thrown out the window. We will get the 3D/4D ultrasound done Sunday and I will post about that on Jayci's site.

Molly's Last Band Concert

This past Friday night was Molly's last band concert not only for the school year but it looks like her last band concert ever. Molly has decided that she has played the flute for several years and has enjoyed it but now that she is in high school there are several other classes that she would like to take and can't do so if she remains in band. Scott and I left several hours early on Friday so in case we ran into traffic we would still hopefully be able to make it as we had a problem the last time we tried to come to one of her events as we made it there as soon as she was done playing! This time we got there a couple of hours early so we went to Target and I got a couple of new pairs of pants and a few shirts as it is getting more and more to where I am outgrowing my clothes. After shopping we went to dinner and then it was time to meet Molly at her school. Scott and I were unaware that this was an outdoor concert in the school parking lot so we both felt a little overdressed when we saw people in shorts and flip-flops but we saw others that had on what we did which was basically pants, button down shirts and skirts but none the less shorts would have been better as it was a little warm. There were several groups that played (all of them were good) and Molly's group was second to last so while we waited we (Me, Scott, Molly's mom, step-dad, sister, grandmother, aunt, uncle and her step-dad's mom) all sat and talked and had a great time. We also got to meet Molly's boyfriend Hunter for the first time and he is a very sweet young man and we look forward to getting to know him better. The concert was very good and then it was time for the long drive home!
