John and I kicked off our weekend with some really exciting stuff! (Now that we are getting older it is a cold hard fact that this really is excitement for us -sad I know) We broke down and purchased a snow blower. Thanks to lots of gift cards from Christmas, it didn't end up costing us very much. Here is John testing it out. We'll see how it goes when I have to use it, I don't have very much faith in my ability to run a snow blower. I for see it taking off at a breakneck speed with me flailing behind trying to figure out how to stop it. You're welcome for that visual =)
Saturday night John and I were treated to a fantastic night out courtesy of our friend B-Towne. We boarded a party bus in Lombard and then traveled down town to the House of Blues. Once there we were told to skip the line and go around to the side door. The door man took our tickets and put special wristbands on us and sent us to the elevator. From there we went up to the 4th floor VIP room, which was awesome! It was pretty cool to see a side of the HOB, we would never have normally seen. We were there to see a Led Zeppelin cover band, which despite not playing my favorite song of all time, was pretty good. We were able to watch the show from a separate balcony, and it wasn't too crowded. We had a great time. We ended the night dancing to a live band by the stage. It was a late night for us, but worth it.
Our busy weekend left me with a sore throat, so I am attempting to rest up and get ready for all the festivities that are coming our way this week. Thursday is my birthday, and Marena and Adam are flying in. I can't wait to see them! We have lots planned so it should be a fun and busy weekend.
With a busy week ahead, Anabelle decided I needed some help around the house and so she offered to unload the groceries today. Good thing I have her around or nothing would get done!
