So last weekend we got to go to 6 flags and I FINALLY got to ride the TITAN! It was awesome. 85mph on a roller coaster is INSANE!! I'll share the best pix from that.
Our prize winners. Not pictured: me kicking hubbs' butt on the water pistol game.
If you zoom in on this pic, do we look like we could possibly be related??
The park is so much more magical when the sun goes down.
Sunday I went to Costco to get my tires rotated and balanced (every 8000 miles, apparently) then i met up with A and we had a lovely visit. Those never are long enough. Then home for chores, getting ready for the short work week. Hubbs took off Wed-Mon and I took Thurs-Mon. We were looking forward to some more time off. I also picked up an apple pie from one of our friends as a surprise for hubbs, as he says it's the best pie in the world. I'll let you know later.
Work was work, then it was wed evening. Hubbs and I ordered stuff for our snacks-giving, and torchys tacos for dinner. Then we watched movies and Ace snuggled.
We were VERY happy that out plans didn't involve flying in ANY capacity.
Thursday we vegged, ate, and just generally made it thru the day. It was nice to have some time off from work to spend together. We watched garfields Thanksgiving special and Addams family values, then the Princess Bride. It was quite nice.
Dinner of shark-cootchie 😁 hubbs made the spinach and artichoke puffs. Very yummy. There is mesquite smoked turkey boob on there, so it 100% counts for Thanksgiving. The pie was VERY good. Didn't get a pic of it cuz we were both excited to tear into it. Hehe.
Friday we relaxed and charged ourselves up for Saturday. We got up at 5am and drove west to see Lil sis at the halfway point; van horn, tx.
She brought dyka. I was finally able to meet one of the dogs!
We decided to dinner at el capitan!
Super cute courtyard area
Appetizer trio: super spicy salsa! Also, in keeping with the hag out theme, the dips are in cauldrons.
My dinner: Chipotle raspberry pork chop with mashed potatoes and green beans. The drink was gin with lime and sauvignon blanc.
Back at the hotel for mead and hag out.
Day 2: at the hotel. This was a kind of bare bones hotel. No dresser, no coffee maker in the room, no comfy chair, but a good view. No waffle maker at bfast, either! Lol
killing time watching Dyka work. It got COLD overnight.
Lunch at the hang out.
Chili cheese tots for appetizer.
I had a Buffalo chicken sammich and onion rings.
Then we all said bye bye and she went west while we went east. We saw 4 big backups on I-20 west due to accidents, but we had smooth sailing all the way home. Quick detour to Kroger for a few essentials, then home to the kitty cat.
It was a good week, and a good visit. I have missed her. And hubbs was such a good sport: 14 hr round trip for 25.5 hrs of hanging out (sleep time nonwithstanding). Now to get ready for a cold work week!
