It will be nice to be back home.<br \/>\n<strong>Laurie<\/strong> and I started the day off today feeling like we had just left work on Friday. Tired, exhausted and looking forward to a weekend. Too bad the weekend was all over.<\/p>\n<p>She of course has it a bit rougher because she has to leave a full hour before I do and usually takes a good 30-min to an hour more than me to get ready. So while she&#8217;s having to drag herself out of bed at 5 a.m. &#8211; I&#8217;m still hitting snooze on my alarm clock and probably annoying the heck out of her (even though she won&#8217;t admit it &#8212; to me).<\/p>\n<p>This weekend was a blur for sure. Friday night we enjoyed dinner at Bennigans and thanks to my membership in their e-mail club or whatever they call it I had a coupon for buy one entree&#8217; get one free. So while we usually stick with the basic menu there we both enjoyed their mix and match meal. I had steak and salmon and Laurie had steak and chicken. Although after several broccoli bites (a must) and her baked potato, Laurie had little room for the main course.<\/p>\n<p>After dinner we came home and watched Premonition with Sandra Bullock. A good movie. A number of twists to keep it interesting and not too predictable.<\/p>\n<p>Then around 10:30 I had to rush off to meet <strong>Brian<\/strong> to set-up for the <span class=\"removed_link\" title=\"http:\/\/www.encounterthis.com\/9\">encounter 9<\/span> event, which was scheduled for 11:59 p.m. on Friday night. We had a great turnout and a great time. We finished the event around 1:30 a.m. and then a bunch of us made a stop at What-A-Burger for late night breakfast and more fun.<\/p>\n<p>Saturday Laurie cleaned house and I headed to the &#8220;Jesus Dome&#8221; for a CWF show in Rockwall. We had a HUGE crowd Saturday night with close to 200 people in attendance and I would estimate that 60% of them were first timers. It was a great show and everything seemed to go without a hitch.<\/p>\n<p>Sunday was church in the morning with Laurie having to work in the nursery. Sucked sitting by myself on my birthday &#8211; but whatcha gonna do? Luckily I had plenty of friends to sit with.<\/p>\n<p>Laurie had 21 women from the church over Sunday afternoon for a Bible study kick-off so I took the dog Geocaching with me. Not much luck, but I got one done and Presley had a good time running all over the place.<\/p>\n<p>After a full afternoon we headed to Mesquite for dinner with our parents. My mom made some of my favorites, Kings Ranch Casserole and Dump Cake for desert. We had a great time and <strong>Kara<\/strong> even stopped by before the evening was over.<\/p>\n<p>After a full day we headed back to Red Oak and crashed not long afterwards wondering where in the world our weekend had run away to.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well, I&#8217;m about to wrap up another Monday at work.
