Enjoying the peace and quiet!

Today has been so nice. I try to take advantage of the quiet time that I get around here. That very seldom happens here lately. This weekend has been full of all the normal hussle and bussle... Friday we went to a going away party for a friend of Ray's on base. It was a nice. They all know that we have Nathan and most of the guys that Ray works with are not married and/or do not have kids, so there is usually alot of things that we do not attend because of this. But it was Matt's last weekend here and he wanted to see Nate too so he decided to do a bowling party so we would bring Nathan to it too. Which I thought was very sweet. These boys have taken Nathan under there wing and he is one of the boys and Friday proved that. It was such a nice gesture considering these boys are ranging in the ages of 20 to 29. You normally do not see that out of single marines. LOL... The evening was fun and I will admit, I was so tired when we got home. I was definatley ready for bed. I do not know if you are allowed to go bowling when you are pregnant and I went anyway with the stipulation that I did not lift a ball that was over 10lbs., like my doctor has ordered. I'm not so sure that baby new what to do with mommy bending that way. He kind of freaked out on a couple of times, so I slowed down and let one of the other boys play for a while..

As for the drama with the boat, Ray and one of his buddy spent all day yesterday trying to fix the boat. Did I mention that yesterday was Ray's birthday! He spent his entire birthday trying to fix that thing. He fixed the manifolds then tried to start it and it would not crank because the timing was off (whatever that means). He was so mad, that he just quit, unfortunately it was already 9 pm by then. He knew what the problem was and it was only going to take him a couple of hours to fix the boat this morning and then he would have the rest of the day to go out on the water. Well, you guessed it, he fixed it and then sprayed some cleaner into the fuel injector like the book said and it clogged them up so now he is at the parts store trying to buy this piece... Seriously girls, I think he needs to put the boat in the shop and let them fix the dang thing. LOL.. I think that is the only problem with being married to a MR> FIX IT, they have to fix everything by themselves. He complains about spending all his free time on the boat but when he you try to get him to stop to go do something else, he will not because he is focused on the boat! I give up! I am going to the beach with or without him tomorrow... If I know my husband, if he sees me packing up the car to go to the beach he will be following soon behind me...

I hope you guys enjoy the rest of your weekend...
