(Last) Weekend Happenings

We had a super busy weekend, which is why it has taken me nearly a week to get a post together! Hubby C was in an art show. He was in Little Rock all weekend with the Arkansas Sculpture Guild Invitational. Last week he was preparing for the show around the clock. He got up early with me and went to bed very late. He got it all done Friday morning and headed to Little Rock to set up. Friday night we all went up and stayed at the Double Tree hotel. My mother in law came with us and kept O at the hotel while we went to the opening night. O loved the hotel. The closet had mirrors for doors, and she spent a lot of time kissing the baby in the mirror.

We have hardwood floors at home, so I am sure the plush carpet was a nice change for her tumbles. She is still learning speed control with walking. When she gets excited, she starts running and gets ahead of her balance a little. The Double Tree also has an awesome view of the river.

While O was running around like a wild thing, hubby C and I went to his show. Little Rock was having a gallery walk that night, so there were a ton of people coming through. I walked around and looked at all the different sculptures while C talked to other artists and people viewing the show. I always feel a little awkward at shows because I am not an artsy person. When people ask me questions, I usually just say I think it looks pretty. As the night wound down, I went over to stand by C and some other artists. One of the ladies came over to me and straight up rubbed my belly. Of course I immediately thought she was trying to say I was pregnant...who does that? I would never go up to someone I don't know and rub their stomach! Not cool! Anyway, C said that he saw me give the lady 'the look' and jumped in to change the conversation. You know the look right? The one where the temperature goes down about 30 degrees, your head spins around on your neck, your hair stands on end, and you shoot flames out of your eyes at someone? No? Just me? Okay, moving on. After the show, we went back to the hotel. We were both hungry, so we ordered a cheeseburger from room service. It cost $17 and was really good. (For $17, it sure better be one good burger!)
On Saturday, my mother in law, O, hubby C and I went back to the show. I got a cute picture of baby O and hubby C with one of his outdoor, large sculptures. C stayed at the show all day.

Saturday night we went out for a friends birthday. Here is a picture of my buddies Leah and Britt at an Irish pub.

This happened (probably a bad idea to start the night):

We ate at a fancy restaurant in Little Rock, Loca Luna. The food was very good. Hubby C got some lamb chops. I split a little pizza with Britt.

On Sunday, hubby C went back to his show while baby O and I rested at home. I am very proud of him for all the hard work he put into the show. He sold a couple pieces and really had a good time meeting all the new artists. I will end the weekend update with a few pictures of his sculptures from the show!

Cheers to a quickly ending work week! It is almost the weekend! Any weekend plans for anyone? Next week we are headed up to north Arkansas to find a place to live. Wish us luck!
