We had Jesse's parents over for dinner this past Friday for his mom's birthday. Must've been an interesting birthday. First, we completely burned the meat we were cooking for the spaghetti. Then, when Jesse went to dump the noodles through a strainer, the strainer fell and he dumped an entire box worth of noodles into the sink. Yum. So we had to wait for more noodles to cook. Then, because we don't have a table yet, we ate at the coffee table, 2 on the couch, 2 on the floor. We knew we'd have to do that though. Dad's making us a table, and it is going to be gorgeous when it's done, he's just hit a road block with some of his equipment needed to finish it. Oh, and we had a birthday cake that we managed to pull off without any mishaps.
Jesse is now working full time at the Golf Club as Assistant CaddyMaster. He's just starting but I think he will be much happier being outside again than at a desk.
Last week, while Jesse was between the two jobs, he had a couple days off, so we decided to spend a whole day together without sitting on the couch. We had breakfast at Pancake Pantry. MM MM. And by the way, Jesse has all this planned out, and I don't have any idea where we are going until we get there. So then we drove and ended up at the Cumberland Science Museum. Well, it's the Adventure Science Museum now I guess, that's just not what I remember about it. :) Turns out, it's not much of what either of us remember about it. :) Not much in there made for anyone over 6 to enjoy. Oh well. Now we know! Then we went to the Gulch and to Urban
Outfitters. Just looked around a little. I really like what they've done with City Hall. I thought they'd tear it down, but they just renovated a little. Looks nice. Then we had some down time
before dinner at Sambuca. Jesse's sister, Caitlin has recommended it to us before, and we finally went. It was wonderful. It's a beautiful restaurant, and the seating is unique, big pillows in the booths and things. And the food was wonderful too. I had a big "baseball" steak. That's about the size and shape it was! And Jesse had a pizza. We had some really good appetizers too.
No room for dessert, although it sounded really good. It was a very nice day to have to spend together like this, and I love a good surprise, so it was nice to have surprise plans for the whole day! :)
We have done a little more with the apartment. Jesse hung a shelf, we got some wedding pictures in frames and hung. We FINALLY got a coffee maker! :) Now... we have some work to do on the closets soon. For sure. We are just having to be creative with small spaces as far as closets are concerned.
Oh! We got a book printed of our wedding pictures. I made it on my mac in iPhoto. It came on Friday and I LOVE it! It looks so clean and modern. It is in order so that it's like a timeline through the day. And it's nice to have something to hold and show our pictures now. I finally was able to show everyone at work yesterday.
And I think we're pretty caught up here...
