Um, Weekend Wrap Up?

Like how I'm doing my weekend wrap up on the day before the weekend? Yeah, sorry about that. We've all been a little on edge around here.


Last weekend we spent some time on the coast, camping. (and freezing) We didn't get out there until after 9 p.m. and we set up camp and Mark made burgers for dinner. (That is the major plus of camping - Mark takes care of EVERYTHING) The rest of our group (Marks two cousins and their wives plus one baby) got there after 10:30.

We did a lot of eating. And sleeping. And napping. And reading. And talking trash. It was great fun.

We did sneak away from camp at one point to see the water.

and we visited a cove and ate some lunch (oh and I totally fell down. woohoo!)


We had a really good weekend. The only regret was that we didn't get the marshmallows out of B's truck before he left.

So, I had to resort to this:

YUM!

Weekend Wrap Up

Oh hey! Sorry I'm wrapping up a day late - but I did get a three day weekend (and yes, in case you didn't realize, I'm totally rubbing it in.)

On Friday, Flutter, Mom, and I went to dinner at Fresh Choice (yum!) and then Flutter and I went to an Arbonne party. Where the woman lied to us about mineral oil and it's existance in ALL THINGS. (read: I found nothing that I use that contains mineral oil) And where I avoided spending $85 on a lotion and serum (which I promptly bought on ebay for $25) yes!

On Saturday, Mark and I had two surprise parties to attend. We went to the first one - a 30th b-day for his cousin. Apparently, 30 is the new 50 because they decorated in an over the hill theme, complete with black balloons. The second party was for a mutual friend who was turning 40. This one was a total shock to him. Which was pretty cool. And he got to see some old friends that he hadn't seen in awhile. So, I know he really enjoyed it.

While we were there, I got to talk to an old friend of mine too. My friend's sister, who I was really close to for awhile was there. She and I had had a falling out and hadn't spoken in a couple years. She's a really funny girl, so I was glad we were able to chat and catch up.

On Sunday, Flutter and I went to a new church. We deemd this new church the church of doors and stairs. It took us passing 3 doors and pausing for a few minutes to contemplate our entrance before we actually made it to the entrance. And when we went to the "power room" there were several flights of stairs (this church is 5 levels and has multiple levels per floor with just a one or two step step-up.)

Overall, we liked the pastor and the music (it had both contemporary songs and hymns) And they gave us a present. (a water bottle, chocolates, a pen, and some scriptures and whatnot) I think we're still going to keep trying new churches, but overall this one is a possibility. (i love that we're scouting churches.)

On Monday I bought groceries and ran errands with Mom. And I cleaned the house. It looks so good. Now if I could find time to wash my car again, I'd be happy.

This week I've got bowling, softball, book club, a luncheon and then we're going camping! woohoo! I think I'm going to need another weekend to recover.
