Weekend Fun

Had a pretty amazing weekend with John.  He came down Friday night...How I love falling asleep in his arms.  All safe and warm.  Saturday night when I got home from work and he got home from visiting Bruce,we went to dinner at Applebees.  (trying to be a little "health conscious").  Then we decided to go see a movie.  We picked "The Fighter".  If you haven't seen it, I do recommend it.  Was very good. 

Sunday morning we  hit a local winery to do a bit of wine tasting.  Since this isn't something that I've EVER done, I wasn't sure what to expect.  So we googled Wineries in the Vancouver, WA area.  I was actually surprised how many there are in this area.  We decided to go to the "Rusty Grape" in Battle Ground. Cute little place.  The wine was pretty good.  There were a couple that we didn't care for that much...I think more me than John.  Wasn't too fond of their Pinot Gris, or Syrah...But, we did find a couple that we really liked.  They had some cute little dogs hanging around that were very people friendly.  Made the place more comfy and homey to me.  After spending a couple hours there sipping wine and chatting with the event planner, we bough 4 bottles of wine and came home.  Came home and made enchiladas.

Then the time came that John had to leave...and put me in a slight panic depression...John will be leaving for Virginia on Wednesday and will be gone for 7 weeks.  I know this is nothing in the grand scheme of things..but I will miss him like crazy! I'm thinking it'll probably be 8 weeks before I actually get to see him, since I'm sure that he'll want to see his boys the weekend he gets back.  He'll be coming home on March 18th...2 days before my birthday.  Then he tells me unless he passes this final audition and PT, he might not be going.  So...I'm torn now.  I don't want him to miss this opportunity..but, I don't want to have him gone either. 

I'm so glad that John gave me a wonderful memory filled weekend before he leaves.

  1. My birthday is on the 23rd! I'm pretty excited, except that Luke leaves for almost a week that day. I hated it when he left for ALC last year, but the time flew after the first week or so.
