Well... it's been a while since we last posted so we thought it was time to write something!
Last night we went to a Leap Year Pig Pickin. It was at the house of someone that Steve works with and it was interesting. Our experiences with Burt's Bees events has been awkward to say the least. This one wasn't as bad as the Christmas party, but it was a little strange still. We fully expected a pig-roast and instead it was more of a fancy-schmancy dinner party. The only pork that they had was in kabob form and they went with the rest of the Mediterranean-style food. Weird.
Anyway, we did have fun and enjoyed seeing how the rich live. The guy that hosted the party lives in North-Raleigh in a million dollar home.
Last weekend we drove to Wilson, NC to meet Cathy's cousin Corey and his fiance Heather, for lunch. It was a nice afternoon and we enjoyed spending time with them. It's really nice that we've been able to see them twice now since we moved down in June. We're hoping that more family will come down for a visit soon!!
This last weekend after driving back from Wilson, we found a Costco and had a taste of home. We went in and enjoyed all the eye-candy and then of course, had to grab a few gallons of extra-cheap milk. :) In case we haven't said it before, the milk here is SO expensive. It's more expensive to buy a gallon of milk than a gallon of gas. And that's saying a lot because the gas is expensive!!
We've been talking about getting a Nintendo Wii since before Christmas. Well... we finally bought one! Yay! It should be arriving Monday. We also bought Guitar Hero III and are super excited to play!!
That's the latest from here. We're eagerly awaiting the visit of Steve's dad next weekend. Soon after, Cathy's mom and dad are going to be coming down (April/May). Yay!!
