Went to the movies tonight with Aaron and Caitlin. The guys went to see Cloverfield, while the girls went to see Enchanted. Two very different movies set in NYC. We came out of the movie smiling and laughing (it was a very cute movie) while the guys had been slightly traumatized by the shaking camera and the giant city destroying monster.
Yesterday we took Max and Meisje to the vet for a checkup. It had been a few years. The good news, Max has lost 4 pounds (he was 22 and is now 18) and Meisje gained 1 pound (6 to 7). The slightly bad news, Max needs to get his teeth cleaned in the near future. It was sad to hear them desperately meow in their carriers on the way to and from the vet. Thankfully, they are once again back to their usual ways, sitting beside me on the couch.
Didn't have a chance to write about this last week, but the Giants winning the superbowl was pretty amazing. Great game, great night with friends. After they won, we could hear cheers and screams out the window from people in other apartments and on balconies. It was magical to hear everyone celebrating at the same time. It was also the first football game I have ever really followed and I was surprisingly not bored. Erik baked these adorable cookies for the game.
While I am always looking up from our street to see the latest construction next door, I had never noticed the carved faces above the windows of the other building next door. They are lovely...and I am a little embarrassed it took me 4 years to see them!
