The Tiny Button: Independence Day 2009

I originally had pretty high hopes for some sun bathing this weekend, but I got a little too excited about getting out of work early and went to the pool..... For 3 hours of fun in the sun....Ouch, yes you guessed it, too much fun in the sun and not too much suntan lotion. So because of the burn I decided to stay in and watch movies!! Gran Torino (Greg's pick) and New in Town (my pick) I really enjoyed Gran Torino, but without giving anything away I will not express how I felt about a certain part. Hmmm. New in Town was cute, I'm not a big Renée Zellweger fan...but I have been watching Bridget Jones on cable a lot and I love those movies, I just love her character!

Saturday was a fun day!! I got see some friends I have not seen in awhile! We went to Ashley and Carter's pool for afternoon cocktails and SHADE!! Greg and I walked down to the Freedom over Texas festival downtown, which we would normally watch from the Apartment rooftop. There was a spectacular firework show! I'm so glad that Greg suggested we walk down there...even though I complained about my burn and the walk (it was like 2 miles.) It was great to see the fireworks up close and personal with their very patriotic soundtrack!
