Adventure Weekend

Well I'm on my lunch so I don't have a lot of time to write, but I wanted to update about my long weekend...

Friday
- Had friends and family over for Home & Gift party... went really well and I had fun being hostess. I even had a pot of Starbucks coffee ready and hot water for tea. Jason's grandmas both came to see our place which was nice. All in all, a good night

Saturday
- Did NOTHING all day except sit in my pajamas with Jason and watch 24: Season 2. It was fantastic. I didn't get ready to leave until about 4:30 or so
- Drove out to Jersey Joes in Pitt Meadows to watch the UFC fight... Only to find out that it was actually next week.
- Stopped in at the church and visited with my mom and Heather for a while. Hung around afterwards but decided later that we were too tired from our active day (well we were both sick with colds anyways) so we went home and finished off Season 2.

Sunday : also known as ADVENTURE DAY!!
- Went with Jason to Science World to see that Body Worlds exhibit. It was a very interesting exhibit, especially the babies. I definitely recommend going to see it, however be warned: it's extremely crowded. I sometimes get a bit anxious in crowds and had to take a few moments several times in a corner to calm myself a bit. That part was yucky but overall a good day.
- Later we got invited to the Mellanders for dinner, we had yummy spaghetti and a good visit.

Monday
- Slept in, then went to my mom's to get some stuff that I still hadn't moved. But to reward us for it (that and the fact that my mom still hadn't made me my birthday dinner from back in January) she made us roast beef, roasted potatoes, and yorkshire pudding. MMMMMmmmm... it was tasty.

So that was my fantastic weekend. And now I'm really ready for the next one! This week was insane with our mini-hurricane. But as I watched the roof blow off a portable outside the preschool window (that was crazy) I thought about the people from our church that are working down south... It seemed like a little reminder to pray for them, and the people they're affecting with their hard work and love. Even with all the damage we are all so shocked about, it doesn't nearly compare with the destruction from the hurricane these people went through. I've also heard the team is bracing for a storm there too, which is something else we can pray about.

Anyways, that's my little post for today which turned out to be bigger than I expected. :)
