Lengths we go to







And it's getting darker and darker and darker









And here are all the tools we used for this activity:



So then we took it over to Jeff and Ashley's to test it out . . . . drum roll please . . . .

IT DIDN'T WORK. :(  So sad. 

We then told Jason that we had a back up plan . . . Shawn found one on Craigs List for $25.  The look on Jason's face was priceless.  "So you mean to tell me, I drove from Coppell to Arlington to get a ladder, that we didn't use, to drive to your house to climb up on the roof and to get a satellite that doesn't work and we could have paid $25 for one." 

Shawn replied, "Well, you would be really mad at me if we didn't have a back up plan right now."

Priceless . . . here's hoping that we are able to get this satellite today for the game tomorrow.  Go Frogs!!

Girls Weekend

Girls Weekends are the best . . . don't get me wrong, I love my husband, but hanging with the girls refreshes your mind and spirit . . . and not to mention you typically get an ab workout by laughing so much.

I went to visit my friend Jenn in Florida this weekend. She is a work colleague, and most recently, my boss, but we have worked together so long, she is much more than that. She is truly one of my closest friends.

Our girls weekend wasn't your typical girls weekend of shopping and martinis. It was golf, football and beer (with some wine (the drinking kind) scattered in).

Perfecto.

She lives in an area of Florida called the Villages. The average age is 55 (and Jenn is not). Don't ask how she ended up there. That being said, I knew it was a golfing community and based on what Jenn has told me about it, I was a little worried what I would be walking into. I was expecting a somber place where people go to die.

Boy oh boy was I wrong. It was a party . . . 7 days a week. These old people were out drinking me . . . and that says something. We even taught a 70 year old how to play "Never have I ever". If you know the game, you are probably laughing your hiney off right now. And let's just say I hope he got all that life experience because he is 70 and not a man whore. :)

There was line dancing (see videos below), golf, wine tasting, dancing, more drinking . . . it was a blast. I am sad it was such a short weekend, but it was a great one.

See some pictures and videos below. Line Dancing
We tried to get a guy to take our picture . . . here is the result (he was about 87)
