I spent the weekend with Kyllan in Dallas. It was a last minute decision, I bought the ticket Thursday night, but we managed to put together a fun filled trip.
Saturday morning I joined Kyllan as she volunteered at an event for a charity organization. Saturday evening I convinced her to see the new Star Trek movie. I had already seen it, and absolutely loved it, but couldn’t pass up an opportunity to expose my wife to quality sci-fi. And guess what? She enjoyed it! I’m telling you, Kyllan is a scifi fan, she just doesn’t know it yet. Sunday we went to church and joined Kyllan’s sister and her family for brunch. After eating we hit up the outlet mall for 50% off sales. Later we had mini-24 marathon. (We used to both watch 24, but I schedules got so busy that we have been unable to keep up.) Monday we had our own little BBQ. Pictures from the weekend are on my Flickr. A slide show is below.
Sounds like a great weekend. I thought they may have cancelled 24, I haven’t seen an ads for it lately. I was in Baltimore in Derrick’s wedding (that makes 8 before you ask Will). Tami is 28 weeks. Noah is talking ALL THE TIME.
It was a really good weekend. Usually we plan trips a month ahead of time and plan all sort of things. Because this trip was last minute, we played it by ear all weekend. Plus, not having to fly back Sunday night or early Monday morning was nice. Things have been pretty stressful in the lab recently. I have one experiment left, but I’ve had to troubleshoot it at every step. It was nice to get my mind off it for a while.
