Katie, Taylor and I all decided to come home this weekend. Lori Princess' daughter chloey (sp?) was having her first birthday party so katie wanted to check that out, and I just hadn't been home in a while, so I decided to come in. Taylor wanted to see Jim and Daniel's new place, and I guess hang out with them a little bit. Anywho, we all decided to ride together in katie's car.
Yesterday we went out with Sami and Chris and saw a movie, the Bourne Supremacy. This is the first time I've ever been in a full theater and heard someone say that they wouldn't move over. Katie asked a couple if they would mind scooting down ONE seat so the three of us could sit together. The two clowns (black girl, white guy) said they needed their space. She tried to explain to them that either way, we'll be sitting on both sides of them, taking up their room, but they didn't listen. So, we sat down and talked about them and how rude it was right there in front of them... about 5 different times for each person who asked "So, who was it that wouldn't move down?". Anyways, we sat on both sides, and Chris took up all the space he could, and I took up all the space I could of the armrest and they just cuddled together. People (especially some black women around here) think that they don't have to respect anyone but themselves, and they'll be fine... it makes me wanna slap someone.
Today, we chopped down the pear tree out of the parents' back yard (about a 30 footer), and chopped it up and hauled it to the side. I've got pictures of that to post here at the end.
Soon after I had to take a trip out to Gloster to a family function with Katie's family. It ended up being a nice night, even though I was sorta dreading going out there at first. We had the event at an old plantation home that her grandma is gonna be living in for a while until she finds her own place. It's about 160 years old, and it's huge... and sorta falling apart, but great. We had fried chicken, sausages, and all the fixings. We even had some home made blueberry cobbler topped with ice cream.
I wish I'd have had the camera for dinner, but all I've got are pictures of Taylor and the pops figuring some way to get the tree to come down. So, here they are, along with a picture of the new gate that the parents put up:
