What a fun Saturday! I started off my morning knocking out some mileage. One word: HOT.
To cool off, I used my happy Metha body wash from Bath and Body Works. Get some now. Trust me.

After the movie, my mom and I ran some errands. We then ended up at Panera for lunch. I heart Panera. I hung out at my parent's house for a while before deciding to rent a couple movies from Red Box on my way home. I chose I Am Number 4 and Just Go With It. I enjoyed both movies.
Sunday meant family day. I met up with younger preggo sister Linda, brother-in-law Craig, and their dog Coco at my parent's pool around 12 noon. Of course I brought over my beasts as they desperately needed a play date. Older sister Cathy and brother-in-law Jay joined use a bit later when my mom served us up a yummy lunch. We then hung out, laughing bunches, and later headed to our dinner at Del Friscos in the Galleria area. They were running a pretty awesome special for 2 where each person got to pick a salad and then it came with an 8 oz filet, a crab cake, your choice of side, and your choice of dessert. I coupled of with my mom. We had such a great meal. I just love spending time with my family.
After dinner, we headed back to my parent's house for my dad and Jay to open up presents. My mom is like Snow White in that animals seem to flock to her. She is not so welcoming of them. There are frogs that end up in the grotto under the waterfall in the pool. There is a bird that keeps nesting in the backyard (my mom is not a bird lover). Now there is a turtle that has traveled to the front door. Here she is. She's shy, clearly. haha.
It was a wonderful weekend filled with fabulous food, family fun, and movies - what more could a girl ask for?
How was your weekend?

Sounds/looks as if you had an awesome weekend.
I was eying parts of the movie while The Fella and I were at the drive-in..Yeah, you read correct - DRIVE-IN!!! Maybe this place wont suck as bad.
Are you keeping the turtle?
So, I can totally HEAR you telling this post as if it were a conversation we were having rather than a blog entry. I rather like that idea, even if it does make me seems weird.
What a fun weekend! I'm glad you took some time to actually enjoy yourself! Fun doesn't always have to be sow big event. Enjoying the company of those you are with and even the treat of a vanilla Dr. Pepper can be the MOST fun times!
Yay for family time!! I'm glad you had such a great weekend. I love that your mom has a new turtle friend. hee hee. And I agree...your mom is cute! =)
So, how was "I Am Number 4" and "Just Go With It"? Were they worth renting?
Sounds like a really great weekend! Glad to hear it. :)
Glad your weekend rocked!!!!! You totally deserved it (=
Awwww, a lil ninja turtle in the family!
