(Picture was taken from here).

Do you have a nightly routine? I don't mean sitting-on-the-throne kind of routine. I mean, what do you do to unwind nightly after the kids are in dream land. This applies to you DINKS, or single folks as well.

Me? I'm a pure couch potato and a "clicker". My hubbie hates watching TV with me because I surf the TV like a typical man (isn't that what you men are known for?), I don't like watching commercials (who does?!) and have a very eclectic taste in the shows I watch nightly.

What's your plan for the weekend? Me? You can find me comfortably planted in front of the tube, with the clicker in one hand watching all the shows that we taped on our new DVR!!

What's that? My hubbie and the kids? Oh, I don't know what their plans are either. I'm sure they won't know I'm missing.

Don't feel bad for the hubbie, he will have all the football games taped as well, and will get his couch potato time too.

We did it! We had our first mini honeymoon getaway in six years, there were lots of things that we did and saw, so this post will be a bit lengthy. I will break it down to different categories by dates and by places and this little dohickey (~) in order to keep your interest right here at my humble blog.

~~~~~~FRIDAY/Drop off our kids at sister's house~~~~~~

You got to love the blogosphere! Well, for me anyway. I was approached by this company to review this DVD, something about me writing about my children "caught" their marketing eye. So if you, Sony folks, want moi to review a Plasma TV or just any TV's, give me a holler. It has nothing to do with our one ancient TV that we have that's on its last legs, really. And I promise to be objective.

The kids were really excited when we received the new DVD.

Although our first baby boy, Tyler, will be turning six (already?! Sniffle sniffle) this September, we decided to have an early birthday party for him and his former Kindergarten classmates this past Saturday (before the craziness of going back to school). The two-hour "shindig" was at Bonkers, eighteen kids were invited including his seven cousins among other 32,118 excited and screaming partygoers and their families.
