Double Rainbow, all the way, across the sky.

On Friday night Sarah and I decided to finally use the Fort Worth Cats tickets that we bought from groupon a couple of months ago. We invited along Steph and Julie to partake in the fun with us! Before the game we were watching the double rainbow video on youtube, which then led to us watching the double rainbow song. Please watch it if you haven't, it will really change your life. We (meaning Sarah and I) became obsessed with the song and decided to sing it over and over despite many requests to stop. But we're not the only ones who like it! They played a clip of it as one of the batters walked up to the plate! I was amazed!! So there was a baseball game going on too I guess, but most of the fun came from laughing at the cougars in front of us and singing the double rainbow song.





We even had a double rainbow snocone!

Happy Mother's Day!

Friday night Julie came to visit! Yay for our first real visitor! We went downtown for a few drinks then went and had some late night food at Ole South Pancake house! My favorite thing about this place is the cheap price!




On Saturday we layed out by the pool, but didn't last long because our stomachs wouldn't allow it. We ordered a pizza from Mama's Pizza. I had really been wanting to try it, because I had heard such good things. And everyone was right. It was so so so good. Even after having many a pizza slice in New York, I would still say this is in the top 3. I can't wait to go to the buffett next time. Watch out Mama's Pizza, you don't even know what's coming...

This morning we got up bright and early and did our grocery shopping at Target. After we got back we finally painted our living room!! We were both really nervous about the color, but after it dried and the streaks went away we both loved it. Now all we need are some brightly colored decorations for the walls!



I'm sure Sarah is really happy that I'm posting these pictures.


The finished product! It's lacking in the artwork area, but it's coming along!

After we finished painting I got ready and headed to Cleburne for Mother's Day. I played outside with Harvey for a while, but he was more interested in trying to pick up the soccer ball. I don't even think he realized that I've been gone for two weeks. Rude.




The flowers in the backyard all bloomed while I was away! They were so pretty!









For lunch my brother made fajita burritos (fajitas #5!). They were awesome and just like Chipotle, but I don't think I'll be eating fajitas for a while.


Now we're all sitting on the couch wathing The Lovely Bones. I loved the book, but I'm not so sure about the movie. We'll see...

Weekend Wedding

Last weekend Sarah and I went to go see our old friend, Michelle, get hitched. I have never cried so much in a wedding. The whole ceremony was just so sweet!



I love this picture! It totally captures how happy she was! These are all the Cleburne girls that were there. AnneMarie, Dani Beth, Rachel, Michelle, Sarah, Me. I loved being able to catch up with everybody!



This picture was taken right after I asked Michelle why we weren't invited to sing at her ceremony. I'm still waiting for an answer...

After the wedding we went and ate at Los Cucos with my parents. Stuffed avacodos. so. good. Then we went to IKEA to get some more apartment stuff. We almost came home with a coffee table, but we're both to indecisive. Sarah did get a desk and chair! After IKEA we went and hit up NorthPark. This is my favorite mall ever. I used to go there all the time with my grandmother when they lived in Highland Park, so it's a little nostalgic every time I go. We were on a mission when we got there. We were looking for some cheap/cute plates from Anthropology to hang our our wall. And guess what...we found some!



I'm in love with them! I love love love the dishes there, I just wish I could afford more of them. I decided that when I get married (many moons from now) I'm definately registering at Anthro, even if they don't have a registry.

On our way out of the mall, we passed the Apple Store and decided that we had to stop so we could play on the IPads. I didn't have high hopes for them, and honestly I went in thinking they were pretty lame. But...after playing on them I see what the fuss is about. They are definitely for the person who has everything (not me) and were pretty fun to play with. We played some guitar hero and a little words with friends.
