Nice looong weekend.

So we really enoyed our weekend this week.
It started out on Friday when we went over to my friend Andi's for a BBQ. We cooked up some meat enjoyed some salads and mingled with my work folk.
We left their fairly early because Kirby was sore from training but we still had a really good time.
On Saturday we worked on beong homeowners.. We weeded the flower beds, mowed the lawns and bought our selves a brand spanking new mower and weed eater... Whoop! We have established that dandilions are the bain of Kirby's exsistance.
We also got some paint so we can redo the trim and deck once it stops snowing as well as we replaced the out door lights to spruce up the house a little.
On Sunday we decided we were due for a nice date night.. We got ourselves downtown by mid afternoon yesterday and took a visit to the Calgary Tower.. the new glass floor is more than terrifying.. If we all recall the story of Krista and the Malasyain Gondola we can recall that she is not a fan of high places.. After 10 minutes of coxing and me damn near in tears I finally stepped onto the glass floor and looked down.. I hope to never have to do that again.
We wandered around the tower for about 1/2 an hour and was even able to get a couple pictures even tho a really annoying young girl kept talking to us as we were trying to enjoy the sights asking if we could sit down on the glass floor and that she dared Kirby to do it.. Fun! :)
After leaving the tower we drove over to Julio Barrero's Mexican Resturant on the corner of Kensington and Memorial.. The restaurant has a great atmosphere and I relly enjoyed the salsa music and the complementary chips and salsa.. The food was sverage and a little expensive but it was still a good choice for something different.
After dinner we went over to Chinook Mall as we had passes to a movie.. Our choice for the evening was called 'Hot Fuzz' and was about a British Police Officer who moved from th4e busy streets of London to a small town. As dinner went a little long we were only 10 min early for the movie.. When we entered the Ciniplex we found the theaters packed and we were unable to get a ticket in time to get into the theatre before the start of the movie. We left the theatre and found an outside entrance into Chapters which was still open.. We found a copy of th Sun and located a good time at the theatres in Crowfoot.. We drove over and found ourselves an hour early for the movie. We cozied down into a seat and shortly thereafter was shooed out of the theatre as it had not been cleaned yet..We reclaimed our seat and at last got to enjoy the movie.
Although the movie did have it's funny bits it was only 'ok' in our books.
today was spent inside trying to hide from the May snow storm. We did a very good job of that!
