Cristin comes to visit!

This weekend, we had the pleasure of Cristin coming to visit. "Aunt Cris" as we now call her for Maddie's sake, showed a whole lot of love for our little girl and I know that Maddie-girl enjoyed the attention. We had a fantastic weekend! Friday night Matt J. joined us as we discovered a new restaurant called Vivo's. The food was delicious and the $9 margaritas were POTENT! Afterwards, we checked out Sixth street. This time we actually gained access to one of the Real World bars...The Dizzy Rooster. This place is your typical bar...no luxuries, no added amenities. The Dizzy is all about the beer...and the occassional girl dancing on the bar. Saturday, the girls went shopping while I worked. Saturday night, we went to the annual Halloween Party at Kally and Colm's. As usual, this party was a tremendous success. The Karaoke was a hit...so much so that Cara and Cristin belted out a Madonna classic...Material Girl. Thanks Kally and Colm.
Finally, Sunday, we took Maddie for a walk around Town Lake and we went to the Alamo drafthouse to catch a flic. We saw Elizabethtown which turned out to be a very satisfying movie. For the first time in a long time, I left the theater feeling like the movie was worth the cost.
Now, it's back to work...Cheers!
