A (Fairly) Fun Weekend

Aside from the fact that my grandparents are in the hospital (which is obviously a HUGE worry), this weekend was actually quite fun. On Friday, I met some friends for happy hour at Eno Vino's, which is this cool wine and tapas bar on the west side. I'd never been there before, but it had a really cool atmosphere and delicious appetizers. So I'm sure we'll be heading over there again.

Then Dan and I met my Aunt Chris, Matthew, Tracy, Kirsti and Rori for dinner at the Old-Fashioned. The food wasn't as good as it normally is, but it was fun to see everyone :) Then we headed to St. Mary's to visit my grandma.

Saturday Dan and I watched Rori, and we had such a good time. She is such a doll; I hope my kids are even half as good as she is! We went swimming in my complex's pool, which was a lot of fun (although it was super windy, and we honestly thought a deck chair was going to come flying into the water. Luckily, it stayed put). Then we hung out at home, watched movies, and made star-shaped cookies for Flag Day. We headed to Outback that night for dinner, which is always good, although our server was a little on the, um, grouchy side.

Sunday we visited both grandparents at their respective hospitals and then went to Paisans to celebrate Father's Day with the Hines. All in all it was a fun weekend.

Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there, especially my dad, who's done a ton of stuff for both Dan and me. He often used his frequent flier miles to bring us home for Christmas (when we were poor college kids who had no other way to get home), provided me with an awesome college education, and, aside from a few moments that seemed like they belonged in the movie Father of the Bride (I'm just kidding!), had no qualms about giving both Dan and me the wedding of our dreams. Happy Father's Day, Dad!
