It's March!!

So happy March!! Even if I am a few days late, this month is very important to our family.

Before I was married, March wasn't that important of a month minus the fact that spring break would normally fall in this month when I was at school. Then, a change of events started 3 years ago when I officially became an aunt for the first time on March 13th when my nephew was born. That was about the only importance March had.

Well, now it has become a much bigger deal. First off, my husband's birthday is at the end of the month. That means this year we're celebrating his birthday for the entire month, the Month of Rob. Should be fun. Other than his birthday, we also have his mom's birthday and his dad's birthday! These are all really important birthdays!! Normally, if we were back home in Indy, we would get together with Rob's aunts and uncles to celebrate his and his dad's birthday. The first time I met his family was at Jockamo Pizza in Irvington to celebrate their birthdays (Side note, if you are in Irvington and/or Greenwood, go check out Jockamo's, seriously the best pizza and as soon as we get back home we're going in for a Cheese Louise pizza!! Unless they would deliver one to San Antonio...hmmm...)

Like I said, this year we're celebrating the Month of Rob. We started off celebrating on Friday by going to see Jack The Giant Slayer at the Alamo Drafthouse. This is becoming my favorite theater. They serve real food while you are watching the movie! And it's actually good food!! They also sell Princess Bride wine! As I have said before, this is my favorite movie and before we move, I'm going to get me a bottle and one for my best friend who equally loves The Princess Bride (another side note, she actually quoted The Princess Bride in her maid of honor speech at my wedding!) Also, when you go see a movie there and you're waiting for the previews to start, they play videos that are related to your movie. A few examples from Friday's movie were Mickey Mouse as Jack and the Beanstalk, some preview of a movie that came out in like the 1960s that was based on the old story, and countless others. When we went to see the Hobbit there they played this very awesome song sang by Leonard Nimoy called The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins and it is the best thing ever. Seriously, if you don't click on that link, you will miss out!!! Anyways, back to Friday night, Jack The Giant Slayer was really good!! There were some slow parts but all in all, I would watch it again. Plus, I love Ewan McGregor which is a perk to any movie!

Saturday was spent taking care of the dogs and trying to find a place that sold baseball team hats, not sold at Walmart and Target down here. We then took a break for lunch at Whataburger which is always a mistake. This is the second time we've been there and I feel like it's a waste of money. Last time, my hamburger was yellow from alll the mustard they put on it. This time, I got it with no mustard but my bacon was thicker that my hamburger patty which really isn't saying much since the bacon was more like bacon bits. Also, Rob's chicken sandwich tasted like hot dogs. Yeah, won't be going back there!!

As for Sunday, Rob and I hung out at the house watching racing and then went and had lunch at Panera Bread which I LOOOOOOVE!! Their Fuji Apple Salad is sooo good! We also brought dessert home which is delicious! I got their carrot cake cupcake-muffin thing...OMG, I don't normally like carrot cake but this was to die for!

For the rest of the Month of Rob, we have many things planned. We're going to see Oz The Great and Powerful on Saturday. Looks amazing. On the 16th, we have our next date night planned from our 12 Months of Dates which is bowling this month. And then, at the end of the month, we're going to watch the Padres vs the Rangers at the Alamo Dome, I guess it's a big deal because they're playing baseball inside. I love baseball and I'm just so excited to go see a game again. As for Easter day, we're still trying to work out what we are doing then since there are 2 separate events we want to go to but can't be at both.

Ok, well I think that ties up what has happened and what will happen in the month of March, or in my house the Month of Rob. Hope you have some great things planned for this month as well!!!
