Wet and Wild Saturday

Well, for once, it was pouring down rain, but not snowing.  It's been a long, wet, cold winter here in the Mid Atlantic.  Saturday was a day for doing nothing but laying around in your pj's, but that we had to save for Sunday.  Up and moving, my husband went to work and the boys and I had a short period of down time before we went to lunch together at Pizza Hut and then went over to Terrance West's signing at Mancave Memorabilia in Glen Burnie.  We got our tickets, did a little shopping and precisely at 2pm, Towson University's star running back came in and starting signing autographs and talking to the fans.  He is going into the NFL draft this year and he is expected to do very well.

My husband had gone to "crunch some numbers" on a new vehicle we are going to purchase.  We are torn between the sporty Ford Explorer and the super efficient, mom friendly Honda Odyssey.  When he came to pick us up, it was still pouring!  We headed over the Chesapeake Bay Bridge to the shore for our first arena football game of the season and got Dakota dressed and ready to go.  They warmed up a bit between downpours and then we played our game, losing eventually 14-6.  Afterward, we went with two other family's to Harris's, a fabulous seafood restaurant on the water near the bridge.  Usually there is not only good food, but a great view.  Unfortunately, all we got was the good food because the view was wet and soggy.  My filet minon was to die for and my husband said the same for his crabcakes.  Dakota ordered two kids meals and ate all of them both!

The drive home for me was less than fun.  I do not like to drive at night or in the rain and it was 9:30pm and pouring buckets.  It took us twice as long as normal to get home, but after a quick stop at the store to get a few things we would need for Sunday, we made it home safely, stripping right out of our wet clothes and into our pajamas.  Sunday promises to be just as wet, but that's okay because this woman is going to stay right in her recliner ALLLLLL day!
