Monday Morning Recap

My idea is to use Mondays as a day to kind of recap what's been going on in real life.  Last week wasn't too exciting, it was ridiculously cold (like 20 below) so I didn't go anywhere during the week.  We had some weekend adventures though!  I totally failed at taking pictures, so this post will be wordy!  I did take some, but they were all snapchats! 

Friday was cold and windy, so instead of our usual lunch & errands date, Brian and I spent the afternoon at home.  That night, Brian and I went out to dinner at a local Mexican food restaurant, where I had one margarita too many (which means I had 2...they were yummy!). After dinner we had about an hour to kill before bowling, so I spent my time playing Just Dance on the xbox, while Brian played a game on his computer.  That game is so hard!  Brian thought I was crazy when I went upstairs and was panting. I had fun though :) 

[Friday night is bowling night, since the local bowling alley has unlimited bowling for $10 (including shoes) from 9:30 - 12:00 every Friday.  We started this tradition with some friends over the summer, when unlimited bowling started at 8:30, and we actually started getting pretty good! We havn't been as much this winter, but still go pretty regularly.]

Bowling was fun, even though I played terribly!  I'm still better than I was the first time we went last year though :). There ended up being 7 of us, instead of our usual 4, so we only made it through 2 games.  It was a good time :)

Saturday was a lazy day around here, I spent most of the day reading and watching movies.  I finished reading The Great Gatsby, then immediately watched the newest movie :) I thought it was a pretty good adaptation! 

That night some friends of ours had people over for food and board games.  Everyone brought some food (mostly chips and dips!) and we played a couple rounds of Quelf, and one epic round of Cards Against Humanity :). 

               our new box for all the expansions!

Brian and I had never played Quelf before...it's not really my favorite kind of game (I am TERRIBLE at games where you have to remember weird rules, like saying a certain phrase every time you say a sentence), but we had a good time.  Cards Against Humanity remains our favorite party game though, and we're super excited for the expansion packs to get here soon! 

After the games, most everyone went home around midnight, but we went out with a couple friends to a local bar that has dancing at night.  That was super fun (I love going dancing!).  

Sunday was spent recovering though :). I did brave the cold to go grocery shopping, which I hate doing on Sundays because Super Target is always so crowded, and yesterday was no exception.  Luckily we didn't need too much, and I was out of there pretty quickly.  I did find some cute stationery goodies in the dollar spot though!




I also managed a little laundry, and watched a movie (finally watched The Heat - loved it!). Then Brian and I caught up on the few TV shows that we watch together and then watched Captain America (we're excited for the next one!).  

And that was our weekend! Super exciting, I know :). I'll try to get better at taking pictures, and hopefully it will start warming up so we can get out more! 

How was your weekend? Do anything exciting?
