Let's see - what's been going on.  Memorial Day weekend we just did stuff around the house and went to a friend's house on Sunday for a bbq. Other than that, it was uneventful. We had thought about going to the Rolling Thunder parade but everyone we talked to who has done it said that they just sat on the blacktop at the Pentagon Parking Lot and baked all day so we decided to skip it.

 

The following weekend, my friend Bonnie came to town. For those of you that need a reminder, Bonnie was the first person to call me when I moved to CA the first time. She was really awesome to me when I was a brand new Marine wife. Anyways, her husband is going to be moving his job from 14th Marines CO to the Quantico base and they were looking to buy house near our neighborhood. So, I picked her up from the airport Saturday so she could look at houses. While she was out looking at houses with her realtor, I tried to get laundry done and then Doug and I went grocery shopping. Saturday night we hung out with another friend of Bonnie's while rehashing all the various houses she had seen. On Sunday, it was more of the same only this time Bonnie decided on a house!!! We all went to check it out and then came back to our house to write the contract. While Bonnie and her realtor were writing the offer letter, our neighbors Sara and Craig invited us over for some smoked ribs!!! yummy!!! These are our neighbors that just had the baby (We dog sat while they got the baby in FL) - It was fun. We got to meet the new baby and Sara's mom and dad who had driven up with some baby furniture from Texas. Bonnie's flight got delayed on Sunday so she ended up flying out Monday morning. On Momday evening, Doug and I headed out to WolfTrap to meet up with our friend's Ian and Danielle along with three others. Danielle packed an excellent picnic dinner that was very yummy!!! We drank champagne and wine and the best part was listening to Tony Bennet - He is over 80 but still has an incrediable voice. It was a great evening.
