Weekend fun

So I had a pretty interesting weekend. On Friday we tried planning a couples dinner night but the guys ended up working pretty late so just us girls went. Heather F, Heather G, Alex and myself. It was fun we went to Friday's, I know the irony is killing me. We went to TGI Friday's on a Friday. Anyways... Well it was fun just hanging out talking girl talk. While we were at dinner Heather G received a text message from Jess asking if the girsl still wanted to have dinner before the guys leave and she moves. We said we were interested but there were things that we needed to talk to her about. Of course she immediately changed her mind and said she didn't have enough money, but we know it was an excuse to get out of talking to us. We are all trying to be adults and just brush off some of the things she has been saying, but about a week ago she posted a blog saying some pretty stupid things. Many of which just were plain false. She never named names but you could tell by the things she was saying that she was talking about me and the 2 heathers. We all have been trying to be as nice to her as we can and just let go of the things she was saying but she went a little far with the blog. But maybe she will start acting like the adult she is and have a nice sit down discussion so we can let her know what she was saying was false. But enough about that. Well Saturday was altogether a pretty interesting day/night. We went over to Laura and Brent Woodwards for a BBQ. There were about 20 people there, some of which were kids. We had a great time laughing and talking and eating and playing games. We were outside just talking and we had some music playing and it was about 10 pm and the cops showed up. The funny thing is we know who called the cops, because for about and hour before the cops came there was this girl staring out her window at us and then staring at us when and after the cops came. Apparently she didn't like that we were talking and laughing and being loud, but really we weren't. I think it just seemed like that because when you have 12 or so people all trying to talk at once it tends to get kind of loud, as anyone in my family would know. We didn't get in trouble we were just asked to turn off the music and be quiet. Which we just went inside after that. I have never been to a get together where the cops have been called so it was pretty interesting. They were joking with us, which made it all the more fun. I don't know why but it did. Altogether a good night. Then yesterday on Sunday Jordan got called back into work. Apparently till they leave they are on a 2 hour recall, meaning when they get a call from their leader they have 2 hours to come into work. Apparently a couple of companies in the battalion have had a few problems and the BC(battalion commander) is getting fed up with it. Which I don't blame them because people are getting in trouble for the stupidest things. When you put that much testosterone in one place things are bound to happen but I guess it's been much worse than normal. Although Jordan's company is not the ones getting in trouble, which I am very grateful for. At least I know the guys Jordan is friends with aren't trouble makers. Well that was my weekend. Alex is, as always, steadily getting bigger and cuter. She is almost talking. She loves to babble but I know one of these days a full sentence will come out of her mouth when I least suspect it. Right now she points at everything and does this little whine to get what she wants is she can't reach it. Otherwise I make her do it herself. She is very independent. I wonder where she gets that from. :)

Story of my life

Well it's been a typical day for me. Waking up, getting the baby fed and ready. Getting me ready. Seeing Jordan off to work and thinking about making dinner tonight. I did go to this place called Puttin on the Paint with some friends. I painted a butterfly for Alex. I get to pick it up next Monday since it takes a week for fire and glaze. Although I do have a party to look forward to this weekend. I am having some of the couples in the platoon over for couples game night. I'm super excited, yes I do realize I'm staying home but I don't mind since we will be having company. Besides it's a lot easier than trying to find a babysitter, plus a lot cheaper. We are getting closer to the day Jordan leaves, don't have a date yet but I know it will be in a month or so. Just one more thing to look forward to as an Army wife. Anyways I really don't have much to say today. I realize it's been awhile since I wrote, but really my life isn't that fascinating. I'm pretty boring, besides I haven't eaten lunch yet and I'm starving. So TTFN.
