Weekend Wanderings

I think this weekend felt more like Halloween than next weekend will.

Bob and I hung out with dear Francis and his new girlfriend, Audrey, on Saturday. Francis had been wanting to go visit the Lizzie Borden house for quite a while, so we finally made plans to go. The whole story is really curious. I'm still thinking about the possibilities of who killed the stepmother since I'm almost positive that the maid got the father... but anyway!

So we went there, and then when that was over, we decided to get the full effect of the Lizzie Borden experience and show Francis and Audrey where she's buried. I know, this probably sounds a little morbid, but with Francis being the history nut that he is, it ended up being an amusing time for all of us... lol. :) After that we did something normal and went to dinner at the 99 restaurant. We had actually decided on Applebee's, but apparently, Bob's car wanted to meander its way into the wrong parking lot! Very yummy, nonetheless.

I found out that Audrey and I have the same favorite colors, and that Francis likes chocolate chip ice cream, and that his eyes will light up like a kid in a candy store when you tell him historical facts. Bob demonstrated that a few times! :)

Then today was shopping day... Burlington Coat Factory and the Dollar Store. They had Christmas decorations and cards and wrapping paper! I was so tempted, but I was good and didn't get anything Christmas related yet. Bob just kept laughing at me. :sigh:

Watched some of the game at his house, then went home to drop my things off and back out to meet my mom, silly aunts, and cousin at Panera's. They really are insane. I have no other words. Getting sleepy now.... off to bed!
