Long Weekend Fun

I told Paul that I didn't want to sit around the house all weekend so we headed to Knox-Vegas on Saturday.
First we went to a drive-in that was featured on Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives on Food Network. We ordered pizza, and it was very yummy.
Then we went to a scrapbook store - all the ones in our area have closed. It was the best store ever! I wish all locally owned scrapbook stores set themselves apart from the big box stores. I think it's the only smart way to compete.
Then we went to the mall. Much bigger than our own. Paul was able to withstand the crowds and enjoy himself. I tried not to overshop, but all in all, we didn't buy much.
Then we drove around UT and showed Abbie which dorms we had lived in, how far we had to walk to class, where we hung out between classes, where we bought books, where we shopped for comic books, where the Vols play (and where everyone knows the words to Rocky Top), and the apartment that Paul and Marc lived in. It was quite the educational trip for Abbie.
Then we ate at PF Changs and then headed for home.
Today, we went to church then went to Horse Creek (my mom was camping again). Lots of creek play and some rock collecting and lots of sitting around the campfire talking.
Tonight, I am cleaning the house (it is quite the wreck) and tomorrow, we will go to the pool since it will be the last day it is open.
