July 4th weekend.

We went to St Augustine for July 4th to see Joey, Joyce and Nicole. We had a great time. The fireworks at the fort were amazing. We watched them from the intercoastal so the fireworks were right behind the big cross. It was beautiful! We did a little shopping while we were there, and got some amazing deals at the outlet malls! I LOVE a great deal!! Robert and I went to several shell shops to pick out special shells for the tables and for decorations. That was fun! I've never seen so many gator heads in my life!! They will not be part of the decor!!!

Last night we decided to go to Target and Bed, Bath, and BEYOND to register since several people have asked when we were going to do that. Well, let me tell you, THAT IS FUN!!! I love walking around with the scanny gun thingy. Robert wanted to scan hotdogs, motor oil, and stuff that would make people wonder "what the hell?" At Target we went all over and had such a great time that I wanted to go to B, B and B. Well, B, B, and B was not as relaxed as Target. We had to sit there, answer a lot of questions, and then the woman WALKED WITH US!!! For the love of God, how are we supposed to make fun of stuff and joke with each other with "Perky Patsy" pointing out stuff we should register for!! I even told her early on "We are old. We have most of the basics since we have 2 separate houses." Perky didn't get it, neither did her manager. They kept saying, "You need to register for however many gifts as invitations you send." Give me a break! Anyway, Robert almost made Perky Patsy see $$$$ when he started looking at $700 set of cookware, then said, "I'm too tough on cookware to pay that much. I'll go to Louis Wohl & Sons." Perky Patsy then became less than perky Patsy. She let us make the second loop around by ourselves. Now we are talking! We could make fun of stuff!! I love me some "as seen on TV" stuff!! Anyway, it was a great weekend and planning is still going beautifully!!
