H-I-L-A-R-I-O-U-S!!!! and, sooooo true! Occasionally, if Matt's feeling extra nice, he watches my shows with me in the evenings, instead of retiring back to the bedroom for his non-stop Golf channel.. So yesterday, was one of those days..constantly, Matt would shake his head and say, "Yep, Yep" to what Steve was saying.. If you're a single lady, looking for a good man.. then this is a MUST read!! He explained all about how good women can't find good men, (Luckily, I did!!)because we've all lowered our standards, on what we require from a man (Colleen..are you reading this??!!) I think just about every subject was covered, and so candidly. Great real life, everyday, no nonsense book!! Two Thumbs Up!!
Now onto our weekend.. Matt and I decided to try something new on Friday night. We hadn't been out to eat, in almost a week and a HALF ;) so we decided to try a little steakhouse in Avinger, that we had heard so much about. YUCK~GROSS~DISGUSTING!! I ordered a filet (which I always do) medium-well. It was the burntest, darkest, piece of beef jerky I've ever eaten!! ..and not cheap, I might add! Needless to say, we will not be going back..so no rave reviews here. Saturday was a beautiful quiet day. Matt had somehow gotten a crick in his neck, which pained him most of the weekend, so he decided to give up golf that morning {you know he was REALLY in pain, for that!} so, we laid around, had some lunch, and watched this..
it was a lovely tear jerker, my favorite!! Sunday, Matt and I headed over to MeeMaw and PawPaw's house for a cookout with Mikki/Clay and the kiddos! PawPaw cooked steaks (this one was FanTastic!!) and pan fried potatoes/onions, Mik made a salad, and I fried up some squash!! It was such a yummy meal!! We enjoyed our day, relaxing on the boathouse, feeding the catfish..but night came fast and we headed back to Longview. Here's a pic I snatched from Mik from the day..we weren't very good picture bloggers!! I apologize! ;)
I'm really looking forward to this weekend! Matt and I are having a little mini-getaway to Dallas! We haven't been anywhere since our honeymoon, so this will be a nice treat. Christian has a gymnastics meet on Saturday morning that we'll attend, then we will be eating lunch at PF Chang's with the Bobo/Funderburk fam's. Afterwards, Matt and I are going to stay in Dallas, and go to the Zoo/Cheesecake Factory the next day. -no word yet, on whether the Funderburk's will be joining us- :) I wanted this getaway, but didn't want to spend an arm and a leg on it either, so I began to research hotel rooms this morning, and look at the DEAL I found!! We are staying at ALoft Las Colinas, which is a "W" hotel..for..are you ready for this.. $45 DOLLARS!!!!!!!! I am one HECK of a DEAL searcher!!! Look at these pics!!
sooo chic, and modern..right up our ally!! We'll See!!Until Next Time!!
I'll leave you with some sweet new pics, I stole from Mel..I know my readers are prob. going through Addi and Brennan withdrawals, b/c I haven't see them in so long to take pics!! ;) So, here goes..
..and have no fear, I'm sure I'll have an AI wrap-up later on in the week!! :)

You are so funny with your Oprah reviews. I hate that your filet was not good (what a bummer)! I'm glad you will get to come to Dallas to hang out--LOVE P.F.'s!
so... how did you find such a great deal @ that hotel? I am an avid fan of starwood hotels and always try to stay at them. Love the Westin's bed!! Give my your tip!
