I picked him up at the airport this morning at 8 a.m. As much as I liked getting to do my own thing, I really missed him, and it was great to have him back home. 
We relaxed in the morning, and then took care of some phone calls to our realtor (ugh, when will the home-buying process be over?!), and then went to see the new Indiana Jones movie (finally!).
I liked the movie well enough, but it's nowhere near as good as Raiders of the Lost Ark or the Last Crusade. I still can't decide how it stacks up against the Temple of Doom. I just didn't like the aliens in the movie. (I blame George Lucas for this; I think he got his Harrison Ford characters mixed up.) Indiana Jones does not discover aliens. He digs up buried treasure, finds lost artifacts, that kind of thing. UFOs and aliens just don't fit. I could have bought into almost any other story line, I think. So that was kind of disappointing. But, I did like how Indy and Marion got back together - she was my favorite heroine from the original three.
We spent the rest of the evening just relaxing and watching the US Open. (How great is Tiger Woods?!) After being apart all week, it was nice to just be together and catch up. I'd thought about going to the Flag Day parade here and getting together with some friends tonight, but we needed some quality Andy and Beth time, especially since we have small group tomorrow night.
