Last Friday we went to see our favorite 70s & 80s Rock coverband "The Boinkers". (theboinkers.com) We had a total blast dancing the night away!
We both worked on Labor day and Dave was working some crazy 9pm-11pm and 4am-11am shifts all last week. He'll have to do it some of this week too because the club is recarpeting the workout areas so they have to move treadmills, etc. off the floor at night and go in before the club opens to move them back onto the newly carpeted area. They are doing it in sections and that is what is taking so long. I'll be glad when that's over. (So will he!)
We went to the Puyallup Fair on Friday night. What a blast! I love fair food! We had ice cream, onion burgers, curly fries, & more ice cream. I really love the funnel cakes & kettle corn but I was too full to eat anymore. Maybe I should grow 3 more stomachs like a cow has...speaking of cows...we saw lots of stinky, smelly livestock. Cows, sheep, horses and piglets that were only 4 days old! We saw the draft horse show but missed the hypnotist. We made our fair purchase: "Cham Wow"s (shamies for cleaning & washing cars, boats, etc), an old Coca-Cola sign and a gift for Dave's Dad's b-day in November. We'll have to go back before the fair ends to have funnel cakes and kettle corn and to see the hypnotist. Oh, I was also so excited when Dave suggested having our picture taken in one of those photo booths! He's never been willing to do that when i asked before...this time HE suggested it! They turned out cute. I'll have to scan them and upload them soon.
Today we helped my cousin Kim move her matress and some furniture into her new rental place and then went to Costco Home Store looking for a desk for Dave. No luck. Then we went to Bellevue Square to Crate & Barrel, Nordstroms, Macys and ate an early dinner at the Cheesecake Factory...Love that place! Afterwards I suggested stopping at Basset Furniture store in Southcenter and we found the perfect desk and it was on SALE!!! SCORE! It will be delivered in 3-4 weeks. Just enough time to clean out the current office desk and find it a good home. (Or take it to the dump if there are no takers). So if you want a perfectly good desk that is 63in.(L)x29.5in.(w)x30in.(h) in a light wood that was originally from IKEA about 5 yrs ago...it's yours...just haul it away!
Ok, an update on last week's to do list: I got everything done EXCEPT going to see Mama Mia. (I wonder if it's still in theaters, or if I've waited too long?)
New list:
1. Buy a shredder
2. Vacuum upstairs and down
3. Pack for trip
4. Scan and upload latest scrapbook pages
5. Backup 5 months worth of photos to cd (yikes)!

I can't wait to go to the fair and have yummy fair food. You definitely need to see Mamma Mia. I loved it. I think it left the theaters, but then it was re-released in a sing-along format. Doesn't that sound fun!?!?
It sounds like you guys had fun at the fair too. Mama Mia was still at the theater as of last weekend.
BTW, how did the guest judge thing go at scraplove? Did I do okay?
