A Weekend That Was like One Long Date!!!

This was nice, a weekend with no projects that were pending. I did make plans though, we had arraigned for a babysitter to come over and Darlene and I were going out for the evening. That almost fell apart as the sitter called at the last minute to cancel, EERRGG!. That's O.K. ,we had a back up plan. Darlene called Brian and Monica, one set of Andrew's God parents, and asked if they could watch Andrew for a few hours and we were set. We dropped Andrew off and we were outie. Darlene had no idea what I had planned for the evening. Our first stop was the Ram restaurant at Point Defiance where we enjoyed a wonderful dinner with a view of the Puget Sound.

After dinner it was time for part 2 of my surprise, we headed to the Tacoma Dome to watch comedian Bill Engvall.

This was a great show, it is very and I mean VERY rare to go to a comedy show and not have the show contain profanity. Not one curse word was used the entire show, and it was entertaining!!!! We got home just as it started to snow.
Sunday, AAHH, Sunday. We woke to a light dusting of snow, what a sight.

This was the day we set aside to go tree hunting, and a hunting we did.

We found a U cut in Orting that had reasonably priced trees and went to looking. Andrew had a blast running through the tree farm. We found a 5 foot tree that would suit our needs, Andrew and I sawed it down.

Got it home, set it up, and we all decorated it. It is really something to see the wonderment in the eyes of a 2 year old as you do something like this. He knows something special is coming up, but doesn't understand what it is yet.

Over the week, Thursday, I did a show for a banquet. I don't like to do shows during the week because of my work schedule. The way things are and with Christmas coming up, why pass up an easy payday?? The show went GREAT!!!! Cups and Balls slayed them, I did do a Card to Ceiling, however instead of the chosen card sticking to the ceiling, the WHOLE @#$&ing DECK stuck up there!!!!

I just played if off like that was supposed to happen.. HEH, HEH.

By the way, you know it's really cold when you have to put a sweater on a goat!!!!
