Weekend with David

We are so glad David called us at the last minute on Thursday night to ask if he could visit for the weekend. We always have a blast together.

Friday night was a blast, and all we did was go to dinner. We stopped in at Cafe Pizzaiolo across the street (even though David was itching for Kabob Palace). They were a little crowded and as we debated whether or not to check out another place, the sweet waitress convinced us to stay by offering to bring us some bruscetta to hold us over while we waited for a table to open up.

She was so much fun. I actually think she had a crush on David. We laughed all night long, ate delicious pizza, the boys had some beers, and my favorite part was when the waitress told me to come taste gelato with her. She gave me spoonful after spoonful of each flavor - it was delightful. She even gave us our bruscetta for free and a couple of beers for free. Nice Lady.

We finished off the evening by watching a Quentin Tarantino flick that Lane and I hadn't seen before - Death Proof. David brought it and said if Lane didn't like the movie, that was it, he didn't know him. Well we enjoyed it. It was very Tarantino.

Saturday David said he had to check out these properties for work, but not to worry he had already found his metro routes. When I checked them out and saw he had to get off at the Anacostia stop (the extreme ghetto), and then walk and take a bus to get somewhere else, I suggested he and Lane take the car. When Lane saw where they were going he came out of the bedroom with NUNCHUCKS in his pocket - you know, just in case. He is too funny. I asked them to blog about their experience since I wasn't there and all, but they didn't.

Lane and I went to a not so useful baby basics class (way too basic), and finished off the evening at Torin's pool party that ended up with naked guys swimming in the pool. Too funny. Of course, after we got home at 12:30, David and Lane made the requisite late night run to Kabob Palace and ate and talked until nearly 4 am.

They took another trip to a different part of the ghetto on Sunday to check out more properties, and came back with dinner all figured out. They bbq'd steaks and made some bleu cheese butter to top them with, grilled squash, I roasted some potato fries, we had garlic bread, and peaches and ice cream for dessert. It was such a treat not to have to decide what to make for dinner, or to even have to cook it. But most of all, to eat David's delicious bbq goodness and share that meal with him.

Next time we see him, we'll have a little baby also!!
