The Countdown is On!

What a nice weekend! Friday night we went with our friends, the Brinlee's and the Tatro's to see Montgomery Gentry in concert. I only know 1 of their songs, but I love it so much I wanted to go. We had a great time! We paid extra for the "VIP" seats, and it paid off! We got about 3 feet from the stage!!What a NICE time!!!





After the concert, we played a little Blackjack and Slots. In true Amy fashion, I lost about $50 in 5 minutes... Thank goodness for my husband! After he lost about the same, he sat down at a Wheel of Fortune machine and won $164! Woo-hoo! We ended up leaving with a little more than what we came with! Hilary and I were cracking up, because the best part of the night is when we were listening to Jeff's I-pod and I came across "Tik Tok" by Ke$ha. When I turned it on, my husband and Jeff started belting it out like they were Mid-High girls! We were DYING it was sooooo funny!

My husband has been in a pretty intense jury trial all week, so it was REALLY hard to get him out of bed Saturday, and what a great day for it. 65 degrees and light showers all day, always makes for a lazy day. We watched a movie, The Boy in the Striped Pajamas, that I feel haunted me. The end of the movie was not expected, and I just cannot believe that Nazi's were so cruel, regardless of their beliefs of their country. Cruel, cruel, cruel...

Today we went to the Arts Festival, and I was disappointed. I bought one piece of artwork, but I felt that all of the booths had the same thing. Seriously, western art & pottery... that was all. I found something that I wanted to get my father-in-law for Father's Day, but my husband told me to wait. It was a picture on a canvas, that just absolutely reminded me of him. Oh well, I did get the artist's card just in case!

We are on a countdown to the Dominican! In only 18 days, we will be boarding a plane, and we CANNOT wait! This is a much needed vacay! We still haven't bought a car, and to be honest, it stresses me out. I will be in Hugo all day tomorrow, and probably won't be home until after 8. I told my husband, that it is up to him. He can go and pick whatever car he wants me to drive, because at this point my eyes are crossing.... Say your prayers, he has REALLY good taste... ;) These 50-60 hour work weeks have been brutal, but at least I will have so much comp time that I might not need to use any vacation days for the D.R.! I just found out that I have a meeting that I need to attend Wednesday at 9am (the day after we get back) and that doesn't sound too bad, except for the fact that we don't get in Tuesday night until 11:55pm! Oh well... this vacation will be so relaxing, that I will be ready for some action! Have a great week! ~Amy
