Long weekend here in Boston!! The city basically shuts down on Monday for the Boston Marathon (Patriot's Day).
Tonight: going out with some old co-workers for dinner
Saturday: friends of ours (a pregnant couple) coming over for dinner, game night, and sleepover
Sunday: church, then a friend's birthday party lunch
Monday: going to the mall to abuse my friend's Destination Maternity discount, then maybe Ikea OR pick up my new engagement ring if it's ready!

@mrs. wagon: Love game nights! Haven't done that in forever. Yay for a new ring, are you going to post pics?
blogger / watermelon / 14218 posts
@artbee: yes we LOVE GAME NIGHTS. This couple is really into games as well so we're really excited. The guy is into jigsaw puzzles as well (as am I) but that usually takes an entire day/night... so we may or may not do that too.
and I WILL post pics, I promise!! I am just in agony because I'm afraid it's not going to be what I wanted. I wish I could just pick something out and take it home, but getting it custom made means being able to use my center stone, making sure it sits flush with my wedding ring, and it's also cheaper since our jeweler is the bomb. I can't WAIT to see it!

Friday: Dinner with a friend who is also going to take me paint shopping since I appear to have the worst luck when it comes to paint.
Saturday: Paint the dining room or the nursery. Spend some time cleaning.
Sunday: Church, spend some more time cleaning.
By cleaning, I mean big time cleaning - scrubbing floors, wiping down ceiling fan blades, dusting, cleaning baseboards, the works.

@mrs. wagon: What games do you play? I'm awful at trivia games but I love them. I'm also awful at pictionary but love it. It's just embarrassing because I have an art degree but it's not so easy to draw under pressure! I'm sure your ring will be beautiful, can't wait to see it!
hostess / wonderful persimmon / 25556 posts
@mrs. wagon: a new ring!!!!!!!!! Super fun!! Plus a long weekend? bonus fun!
GOLD / wonderful grape / 20289 posts
@mediagirl: Lol, how do you have bad luck with paint?
hostess / wonderful persimmon / 25556 posts
@artbee: every time I buy a shade, it's wrong. The last time was when I bought gray paint for the dining room. It looked like a baby boy's room. This time, I bought coral paint. It looks hot pink on the walls. Sigh. Waste.Of.Money.

@artbee: if you love trivia you should try Wits and Wagers. It's a mix of trivia and betting. You don't have to be good at either! It's SO FUN. You need at least 3 or 4 people. Telestrations is good as well, it's like pictionary and telephone put together. You draw something, the next person guesses what it is and writes it down, the next person sees their guess and draws that... etc. It's hilarious to see what the end result is.
P.S. Funny about the art degree because this thread is bringing up ads for the MFA... which is where I am right now! I work here!! haha. So strange to see ads for my workplace on hellobee while at work!!!
@mediagirl: ahhhh I'm so excited!!!
blogger / watermelon / 14218 posts
@artbee: oh also... our current favorite games are Settlers of Catan, Dominion, and Puerto Rico.
GOLD / wonderful grape / 20289 posts
@mediagirl: oh no! I'm not always the best either with paint because I don't get samples. I just get the paint and paint it! The front of our house now has very bright yellow and green trimming. I didn't mean for it to be so bright.... but I still love it. Our neighbors, not so much.
@mrs. wagon: That game sounds like so much fun! I'll have to get it. Do you play apples to apples? That's another one that you don't have to be good at, you just have to know who you're playing with. We love the Jewish addition.
I'm getting one kings lane ads.
GOLD / wonderful grape / 20289 posts
@mrs. wagon: I've never heard of any of these games! Maybe I should stock up and host a game night 
blogger / watermelon / 14218 posts
@artbee: We do have apples to apples too!!! We don't play often because it gets too loud. Haha. I love to argue.
DEFINITELY try out wits and wagers. It's freaking hilarious.

were having a garage sale saturday! but Saturday night we are in a big warning for tornadoes.. and of course I'm already freaking out! nothing else planned for the weekend...
hostess / wonderful persimmon / 25556 posts
@enjollah: I LOVE sequence!! It is one of my favorite games and it's one Hops and I can play in peace - and not want to kill each other when it's over. Give us a game like Apples to Apples and the claws come out. I have a bit of a probably with control and needing to win.... This weekend I had to lay some knowledge on my Dad because he was running Balderdash wrong. Haha.

We are going to be working some more on the nursery, washing the baby clothes, cleaning out the closet, and posting a few things to sell on Craigslist. We also have plans to meet up with some friends on Saturday and Sunday afternoon.
GOLD / wonderful grape / 20289 posts
@mrs. wagon: How can you argue apples to apples? The judge gets to make the decision!
@lovelife: Love garage sales! Hope you make lots of money.... and stay safe with all the tornadoes!
@chopsuey119: Yay! Hope you have a nice time with your DH
@jessiejo17: Wow, busy weekend! Good luck with all that shopping, so fun!
@plantains: Yay for the baby shower! Is there a theme? Hope you get lots of awesome gifts!
blogger / watermelon / 14218 posts
@artbee: the way we play, the players get to try and convince the judge to pick their card. it gets really really rowdy.
GOLD / wonderful grape / 20289 posts
@mrs. wagon: Oh, we don't play like that. I feel like if people know who's card is which they'll play favorites. We try to keep our mouths shut.
grapefruit / 4671 posts
@artbee: I don't think there is a theme, but it is being held at a really swanky restaurant so I'm really excited! Thanks for teh lovely wishes

Haircut and playdate for the LO tomorrow. On Sunday we're gonna hang out in NYC and enjoy the warm weather - Central Park picnic - woohoo!!
GOLD / wonderful grape / 20289 posts
@Andrea: How fun! Can't wait to take my LO to central park in July, even though it will be crazy hot. Have fun!
GOLD / wonderful coffee bean / 18478 posts
@artbee: might not be, last summer wasn't very hot so maybe we will get lucky again!
GOLD / wonderful grape / 20289 posts
@Andrea: That would be exciting. I've been dreading the heat. There's so much we'll want to do but I don't want to sweat my tushy off doing it.

@artbee: Sounds like a really fun weekend.
@mrs. wagon: Marathon Monday is the best! We are on the route - alas, I will be watching by TV this year.
@mediagirl: Holy moly you are nesting : )
@jessiejo17: Nice! How far along are you now?
@plantains: Have fun at your shower!
@BabyBoecksMom: So exciting!
@MsMini: The BIG weekend - have fun!
@Running Elley: Good to see you on here! Have a good weekend : )
Just another weekend of bedrest for me - getting bo-ring. DH is on call all weekend too and so probably has to spend a fair amount of time at the hospital. My brother is visiting Saturday and I plan to watch a couple movies. I'm internet shopped-out. Any suggestions?? (Recently watched Girl With Dragon Tattoo, Young Adult, Descendants).
GOLD / wonderful grape / 20289 posts
@BabyBoecksMom: that's awesome! I'm jealous. I just wrote that what room would you make over in your house post about how I want to expand our porch.
@MsLipGloss: fun, what charity?
@MsMini: wow you do have a busy weekend. Hope you can get a little relaxing in there too!
@winniebee: sorry you're getting bored 
do you have netflix? I love doing tv show marathons on there. My latest was parenthood.
