While Mom is away the Boys will Play!

Brittany was out of town this weekend so Reid and I had the house to ourselves to do manly things like watch football and eat too much.

To start off on Friday night, Reid and I went out to eat a big meal at Spring Creek BBQ because: 1. It's loud 2. He likes it 3. There are a ton of kids running around making a mess 4.  It's loud (did I mention that yet).

Saturday morning through post nap time, Reid and I watched a lot of football and waited patiently for the Aggie game to start.  I think Reid was really more concerned with making sure he had an ample supply of Cheerios to snack on.

Our big trip of Saturday was to Bass Pro Shops so we could walk circles looking at all the animals and the big fish tank.  The past couple times that we have gone Reid had been scared of the big catfish, but this time he thought it was hilarious.

After doing laps at Bass Pro, we headed over to HEB to find something for dinner.  We end up having a gourmet meal that can best be described as a "Dad's surprise" spaghetti bake thing.  Reid did a good job of eating but also did a good job of sharing with the dogs.  

Sadly we didn't buy enough Red Bull for Reid to stay up for all five hours of the Aggie and La Tech game (by the way for anyone who watched, does anyone else want a Reverse-A-Pal), but he was happy to find out the result this morning.  He was also excited to watch the Packers and Texans on Sunday Night Football (lucky for him he didn't stay up past the first quarter).

All in all it was a good weekend.  Reid and I spent a lot of time playing, hanging out, laughing, and bonding, but we were both very excited to see Brittany when she got home this afternoon.
