Weekend for the books

Well, after alot of anxiousness, anticipation and planning, this weekend went by way to fast. It felt like it was taking forever to get here, and the past 3 days flew by so fast that I can't believe it's over already.

Friday afternoon, Kim got here from her long drive and we spent the day running around and relaxing whenever we could. I knew that her drive was long and wanted her to get rest anytime we could swing it. That night we went out and she got to meet alot of my friends and that went very well from my point of view. I hope both my friends and her thought the same thing.

Saturday, we went to the house and made dad and us breakfast of french toast, bacon and eggs. Later in the morning/afternoonthe rain stopped and I got to show her the city and just spend time together. The night came and that meant the Halloween party. We went as Pirates and her costume turned out fantastic. She made new friends and fit in great with everyone. I was very pleased that she was able to feel comfortable around everyone and found things to talk about.

I think she was wanting to stay longer than I thought we could and it was a late night for sure, but it was well worth it.

Today we had breakfast, washed the cars and took some pictures by the lake with them. I really enjoyed it and the pics turned out pretty good.

I hated to see her drive away and can't belieive it's going to be WEEKS before I get to spend time with her again... not happy about that.

Trick or treat

It's been a crazy week around the land here. Work has a busy spurt that should last thru December if all goes well, I've been working like crazy for many reasons. Mainly because of the fact that I'm taking a half day tomorrow and I needed to get done with some things and the overtime is always good.
I have a close friend coming in this weekend and it's something I've been looking forward to VERY much for about a month now. She's never been to the area, and while I'd love to show her everything around here, it's going to be crappy weather, so I won't get to show much outdoors to her.
I was excited about many things this year, but the ones that have always been the best were when she was involved in some way. Feels good to have someone in my life that makes things more important and special. Not had that in a long time.

So, maybe I'll have pictures to share of our costumes for the Halloween party. That she's coming here to visit is the best treat I can ever think of.

Weekend drive

I realize that the last few posts have basically all revolved around my new car, and this is no exception. The posts next week will be different... I swear.

This weekend I took the car up to the mountains to check out the changing leaves and let the car stretch its legs for a while. I found a nice twisty road that I never knew was like that. VERY fun in the car.

Here's a link to the page with all the pics, but here's a few to get started.

Time off

With the weather being so wonderful here considering it's the middle of October, I've been out and about doing alot of things... I've not really had time to post much..

Here's a couple newer shots of the car... between work and getting the car and garage together, I've not been doing much else... But I will be taking a break tomorrow to cut grass, and go costume shopping... :)

More to come once the weather works out.

Enjoy!
