We didn't do too much this weekend. We played the Wii a lot Friday night and Saturday. Saturday morning and afternoon we washed a lot of clothes and did some picking up around the house in between Wii sessions. Christi's parents were in Puerto Rico this weekend and we were jealous we didn't get to go! Her dad had to go TDY (temporary duty) for the weekend there and he was able to bring her mom with him, which was cool. Christ's mom came back tonight and we ate supper with her. Her dad had to stay a little later because all the work didn't get done. It sounds like they had a great time.
Saturday around 5 Jody and Jessica came over to hang out. They found a recipe for a dish at Carraba's, Chicken Brian, that they brought over and cooked at our house. I thought it was very good. I don't recall what exactly was in it, but if I go to Carraba's I'll definitely be order it.
After eating dinner we talked about a lot of things and ended up playing some board games and the Wii. Christi and Jody always go back and forth picking on each other, so we decided it should be settled with some Wii boxing. Christi prevaled in a best of 3 contest, 2 matches to 1, coming from behind 1-0 to post two knockouts. Very impressive. Jody was not happy. Jody and I later played some baseball, which I think is the hardest game on Wii sports when playing against someone. Neither of us could hit each other, and the result after 2 games was 1-0 Jody and 0-0 tie.
Sunday we woke up with the intentions on going to church, but we when we got up both of us felt really bad. Christi has been fighting a cold the last 2 weeks or so, but I've been fine. Out of the blue it got us both pretty good, so we just lounged on the couch all day. I played a little Wii, but only that what I could do lying down, which isn't much. Other than that we watched old movies on TBS, which had a surprisingly strong lineup that day.
Overall it was a good weekend, minus the being sick part. Christi is feeling better today but I felt even worse. Still, I decided to tough it out and go to work. I was pretty slow the first half of the day, but right before lunch I went to work out (we get 3 hours of fitness leave every week and I make sure I use all 3!) I felt better after working out despite it being one of the harder workouts I've done the past few weeks. I hit a wall around the 2/3 point and I think that was due to my cold, but overall I think working out helped more than it hurt. I'm still not 100% but I think it's leaving me. Hopefully it will be gone by morning.
Well, it's almost time for 24 to be on and I don't want to miss an episode because I'll be totally lost if I do! Have a good evening.

Thanks! Stella's the light of our lives and we are getting to know Vinnie more and more everyday. Boxers are the BEST! :-) Stella is actually not that big. She's 50 lbs which is the lowest weight for a female boxer according to the standard. Vinnie, though, will likely get closer to 70 lbs. He'll probably be HUGE! Hope you guys are doing well! We love to watch 24, too. :-)
