I realized a few days ago I haven't been updating the ol blog much lately. I have been crazy busy and I haven't really had a lot of exciting things happening, since I'm not about to bore you with details about school, and that's basically my whole life.
My "resolution" of taking more pictures hasn't been going very well, partially because I forget to take my camera anywhere (and then I left it in St. Louis), and also because well, I just forget. I remembered a few times this weekend, hence the weekend update!
Sam was in town this weekend to celebrate Valentine's Day, and we had so much fun! Here's our weekend in pictures (and pictures found on the internet because I forgot to take my own...).
On Friday, we went out to eat with my carbon copy Chelsea and her bf, Nathan at Conrad's. It was delicious and super reasonably priced, and great because it was one of those evenings when you totally lose track of time.
We then headed to the movies to see The Vow. I was really, really, really sad because I was looking forward to this movie for MONTHS and I was sort of disappointed by it. I thought I'd be the only one, but then I realized it got a 28% on Rotten Tomatoes so then I thought, "maybe I should be a movie critic!" I would give it a C+...maybe a B-. Let's just say I nodded off at one point, and that's not a real ringing endorsement. Then again, I did see it at 10:30, and I'd been up since 4:45 for clinical...
On Saturday we watched Mizzou beat Baylor (sorry, Kansas fans, wait no I'm not)...
...and hung out with these munchkins.
And then we got all dressed up (and yes, I dyed my hair...more on that later) and went to one of our favorite restaurants in KC:
If you haven't been here, go immediately. We got the VIP treatment (seriously, when we told them our name for our reservation she said "Oh we'll be taking you to the VIP room"), and the food is SO. GOOD. We both devoured everything they put in front of us, including the best turtle cheesecake I've ever had. Also, there were some ridiculous couples sitting around us, which made for some interesting entertainment during dinner :).
Of course, it wouldn't be Valentine's Day without some
gorgeous flowers. I can smell them all over the house, which may not be great for my allergies but makes me super happy.
Thanks again for a great weekend, Sammy :). Hope everyone else has a fabulous Valentine's Day! And also, if you saw the Vow...let me know what you thought of it. I'm dying for a second opinion!
