Cheescakes, chicitas and chocolate!

Last night Jen, Alyson and Tammy came over. What a riot! I haven't laughed THAT much in a LONG time. With Jen and I being as pregnant as we are, I was hoping at least one of us would go into labour, but no such luck. We seriously spent four hours laughing...okay, and eating. I just did up some veggies and dips and then crackers and cheese and some brownies...oh, and the Jell-o no-bake oreo cheesecakes...yum!

It is so fun to just hang out with the girlz. I love being so comfortable. And I love when people feel comfortable enough to come to my house in their sweatpants! Brian went to our friends' house and watched the game last night (GO FLAMES GO!). When he got home he went up to bed and put his ear plugs in. He said he could still hear us with his ear plugs in! It was just a ton of fun.

Thanks, girlz! I vote we do this more!

Is this a joke?

So a few weeks ago Brian and I decided to go out for dinner at the Boston Pizza by our house. We know we should be saving our $ for the little one on the way, but we were both too lazy to cook. So we had a great pasta dinner since it was Pasta Tuesday. We paid our bill and on the way out the front door, Brian looks down and there is a $20 bill on the ground. Since it is on the ground he's like, Should we take it? If we take it back inside and no one claims it, then would we get it back? Since it was on the ground we considered it ours and considered dinner pretty much paid for! Lucky us. We just aren't the luckiest people usually.

So then on Monday night after our prenatal class we decided to go to the same Boston Pizza for dinner again. We really don't eat out THAT much, but just lately we have been out a bit. So anyway, we eat dinner, it was really good. As we were walking out the door to the car, I made the joke, So where's our 20 bucks? Right there. There was ANOTHER $20. What the heck is going on? So we considered ourselves lucky again.

At first we kinda felt guilty, but how can anyone claim it is theirs? And it was just sitting there...finders keepers?

If you think we are bad people for keeping the $40, oh well!

Personally...I think we just head back just to see if it happens again LOL. J/K

Is that what I think I see...

So the other day we were sitting on the couch eating dinner and I look over into the dining room and see Inde, our cat, playing with a toy mouse...or so I thought. Then I got thinking "Inde doesn't have any toy mice that are gray." AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH "Brian, that's a real mouse!!!!!!!!!!!"

Sure enough, it was. The kitties chased it into the basement and Brian found where it came from and he has put foam filler in where he came out and we haven't seen him or any of his friends since!

I had it in my mind that only people that didn't keep a clean house or were really dirty people got mice...trust me, that's not us. But after sharing my mouse story, turns out we aren't alone...lots of people have had mice.

Whew.
