Weekend....

So instead of cleaning the house like i had planned (and i have been) i am taking a break and updating my blog. ha
Another weekend has just flown by. Greg and I had our once a month "special" date. This time we went to WA Frost for dinner. I was pretty impressed. The prices weren't as bad as I had expected and the portions were perfect. The waiting staff was nice and Greg complimented the chef! The reason for this was because we had a side dish that was Ahi Tuna and Crab cakes...Greg being from Maryland is very picky when it comes to crab cakes and well he was impressed, hence the compliment! After that we went to the Ordway to see the Saint Paul Orchestra. We watched a lecture before the concert too. The concert was nice but a little too relaxing on the music. Greg and I were both nodding away during the music. As we went out to the lobby for the intermission they had a jazz band playing. The cool thing was you could either stay out in the lobby for to continue listening to the jazz band or go back inside for the orchestra. We both agreed on staying for the jazz band. It was very fun...very 30s/40s music! The date was a blast and i'm really appreciating our going out once a month on a nice date. We typically rent a movie or go out for dinner or do something cheap so saving up money for a nicer date once a month is really nice.
Saturday Greg and I looked at some homes in Hugo. We are pretty set on moving to hugo....me probably more then him. We had an appointment on this old farm home that sat on 7acres. We got there before the realtor and I fell in love with the land. I quickly started figuring out where i could set the veggie garden and flower garden...where there needed to be more trees planted and of course invisioning Gabby running and running in the field. My dreams were quickly crushed when we stepped into the home. The foundation itself was crooked and there were some major cracks in the walls...this to me would be a tear down and for what they were asking we couldn't afford to build a house on the land. I really tried to imagine myself there but it just wasn't the house for us. I was totally bummed. We were going to go with the realtor to another home but she had informed us that it was sold...so i was bummed again. This i take as a sign that those were just not the homes for us. We drove around Hugo for a little longer to see if there were any other homes to look at. Saturday night was the volleyball party at Jeff and mikes place. It was a great time..enough said. I was pretty proud of Jeff for making green jell-o shots. Very festive of him...oh and he also had some green beads which was pretty fun. But like I said before it was a great time and i'm looking forward to the next party. :) Sunday Greg and I took it easy...with cleaning and chatting about selling our house. I think we are finally going to go with a realtor to help us sell our house. Now we just need to find a house for us to move in to...AND hopefully I will be hired full time soon too. (I have the interview on Tuesday ....ahhhh ...very nervous). So now Greg and I are cleaning house...painting, fixing, etc.
Again another busy weekend...and now Holy Week...and this weekend, busy again! lol...
Okay enough procrastination...back to cleaning!
