Chillin' on a Sunday afternoon......

So Robert and I are sittin' here on a Sunday afternoon - our one day off together this week - watching the NFL playoff game between the Steelers and Colts, and I thought that I would catch y'all up on life here in Marietta, Georgia. I haven't broke the camera out in nearly a week, and missed some truly memorable moments.... darn!

We have both been working alot this week, but Robert has me beat. 84 hours in one week, yikes!!!! So, on Friday evening we decided to celebrate his upcoming day off on Sunday and went to Ralph's Tavern to see our friends Totally Savage play. Now this was one of their regular gigs, but they asked Robert to come up and play Stormy Monday with them. Larry said that Robert's an honorary Savage, that's pretty impressive in my book. Needless to say, Robert did not get much sleep (about four hours) until he had to get up and do it all over again at 5:00am. Order up! Breakfast for 1300 please.... eggs over easy.....

Sooooo.... it's 9:00pm and Robert calls to say he is on his way home from work. Yes, that made it a 16 hour work day. We decided to go to Crystal's on the Square, where everyone knows your name! Yup, it's alot like the setting of Cheer's and we love it because of the familiarity, in addition to the fact the crowd is more of our generation than not. A band named Big Biscuit was playing hits from the 60's and had the audience constantly on their feet dancing and having fun. We closed the place down at 1:30a.m. and made our way over to Nik's Back Porch to find more music and found The Mike Beal Band to close the last half hour of our night out with more oldies.

Sleeping in today was our goal and I am happy to let y'all know that we achieved it! Brunch at 2:00pm - yes! Now to decide whether to go to Open Jam tonight at The Firehouse.

I am also going through pix from the holidays and will be sharing some of my favorites with you. Nathan is exercising with his Daddy Mike. How cute is that?!
