Weekend Recap

Our weekend started Thursday night with dinner at Taco Mac. Sven and I met about 12 of my coworkers there for dinner and drinks, before we headed back to my office to decorate for promotion day, which was on Friday. As part of the promotion day celebration, the office desks of everyone being promoted gets decorated. We ended up leaving the office around midnight, as we had 65 desks (just in tax) that needed to be decorated. We both had a lot of fun, and it was nice for Sven to finally meet some of my coworkers.

On Friday I went to work and participated in the promotion day festivities, which included breakfast at the office, lunch out and an afternoon celebration at Opera. (The picture below is the inside of Opera) I left the celebration a little early and came back home to hang out with my boys, Sven and Booker. We all relaxed for the rest of the evening by watching the opening ceremony of the 2008 Olympics.

Saturday Sven and I went to Einstein Bagels for breakfast and then headed to the grocery store. The first place we went was Whole Foods. They have an awesome produce section and lots of yummy cheeses, so we only picked up a few things from there. If we would have gotten everything on our list we probably would have spent three times the amount, as it is much more expensive than your typical grocery store. We then headed to Kroger to finish the rest of our food shopping. By the time we got home FOUR hours had passed, and we were both tired from our day of shopping. I think it is safe to say that we should NOT have to go food shopping for at least three weeks. Our frig and pantry are overflowing with food!

Today we took Booker to the park down the road. We worked on his obedience training for a little while and then took him on a 2 mile walk. I think Sven and I are going to just hang around here for the rest of the day since we have LOTS of laundry to do and I want to watch the Olympics!


Hope everyone else had a good weekend!
