Weekend Review

This weekend I got out of the house and tried some new places. I made a goal this new year to actually get out of my comfort zone, go out and do more fun things. Well I'm trying to make that really happen! So I headed downtown and tried out two places. The first place was for a meal. It's called Pizza Rock. 

The food was really good. The place had a nice mix of people and wasn't too busy. I had the Gorgonzola cheese fries and they were tasty!

Once we left Pizza Rock, we literally went next door and hit up Dive Bar. I had heard about this place but had never been inside. They have dueling pianos and a huge fish tank above the bar. The tank is so big that they have an actual mermaid or merman swimming around in it. 

I thought the dueling pianos was the best part! The mermaid was kinda cool but odd. I wonder if their hands get water-log? One of my biggest issues when going out to new places is trying to figure out what to wear. I have tons of clothing but I can never gauge what to wear when going to a new place. After much consultation, I ended up going with some black skinny pants, a white top with studs on the sleeves and some silver flats. I fitted right in!

Then I spent the rest of the weekend doing homeowner projects. Let me tell you, I thought this was going to be an easy project.... HA! It's harder than it looks trust me. I had this giant hole right in front of my front door way path. It's near a fountain and I wanted to fill it and make it look pretty. I had been seeing ads in the Sunday papers for lava rock so I went with it. Five bags later.....

I think it completely changes how the front of the house looks and in a good way! I also added this cute little mushrooms to the path...

And I totally mowed my lawn! Like all of it. I have a huge front yard and a large backyard so when I mow it, I usually alternate every week doing just the front or the back because it's so much. This weekend, I did both. 

So there you have it kids, a very productive weekend! Hope all of you have a great Monday!
