Weekend of Dreaming and Dreams Come True

This past weekend was busy and fun.  Friday evening, Luther grilled steak on the grill and we sat out on our patio and ate dinner together.  I think this might be the first time ever we sat outside and had dinner together.  We have had cookouts before, but never just the two of us.  It was nice.  Then we invited some friends to stop by and Lindsay and Brandon.  Our friends were unable to make it, but Lindsay and Brandon came over after they went out for dinner.  We just hung out on the patio talking and listening to the radio.  Another friend of mine had offered to give Lindsay some bicycles, so we planned on going over to Laura's house on Saturday to pick them up.


Saturday, we went over to Lindsay's to pick her up to get the bicycles.  Luther, Ryan and I all went because we planned on going to the Parade of Homes afterwards and dream a little.  Since we were all there, Brandon decided to come with us to Laura's house and get the bikes. We picked up the bikes and spent a little time visiting with Laura and Mark.  When we left, Ryan was hungry, so we decided to stop at Sonic and get happy hour drinks while Ryan ate some food.  Brandon and Lindsay decided to go with us to the Parade of Homes.  It was really cool because Brandon's Dad is a local home builder and he had several homes in the parade.  He was at his second home they were showing, so Luther, Ryan and I got to met him.  He is a very nice man and he has some very nice homes.


Sunday, we decided to clean the garage and get it turned into a workout room.  We had a few things that need to go up in the attic and we had some other things we got rid of.  It was pretty much organized so to speak, but we had to move everything in the driveway because we were rearranging some shelves in order to get the workout stuff situated where we wanted it.  It's really nice how it all turned out. We have a weight bench, a punching bag, an elliptical, a mini trampoline, another machine that is like a leg glider and of course the Wii.  It's like a mini gym in our house.


I wasn't thrilled to do it so much, but after everything was finished and it looks so good, I'm glad we did it.  Now, bring on the Wii tournaments!  So all in all, we had some dream time in the Parade of Homes and then a dream come true when we finished the garage.
