A Breather....
I have been going non stop from Friday after work up until Sunday night. But everything was very laid back and relaxing, it doesn't feel like I had fun to the point of exhaustion this weekend.
After work on Friday I decided to go visit my parents and brother and just hang out. We had a really fun night of making homemade pizzas and playing games. My brother completely dominated in Yahtzee, after getting 2 Yahtzee's we all realized that defeat was eminent! We also played Fact or Crap, which everyone really enjoyed so much so that on Saturday after noon we had to play it again. Saturday was laid back, too. We went out sledding on the four wheeler and then we watched a movie. The highlight was taking a trip to Hutchinson, the "Big Town" near my parents house. We spent hours in Target just walking around and having some laughs. While my mom and I were in the makeup isle my dad was in the valentine card isle, and we heard him laughing so hard and we were 10 isles down! Apparently he found a really good card for my mom. Our final outing was to the Chinese Buffet, which was good, but seriously, after you've been in China, all American Chinese food pales in comparison. Seriously, it just does.
After all that family time I met up with Shannon, Jaime and Cindy for a little night out in H2Otown... Nothing fancy, just the girls having a good time. Sunday I went to church then was invited over for chili at Sarah's house. Sarah and Francisco made some darn good Sante Fe Chile! Ellen and I then went over to visit the beautiful Norelle! What a sweet baby! So content and pretty! Megan and Jake are such good parent's too, they look like old pros!!!
After the baby visit Ellen and I made a stop at Border's books so I could get this book I heard about... The Gaslight Effect, by Robin Stern. You can do your own research on this book, but lets just say I could relate. So spot-on its scary!
Then Ellen and I rented a movie and ate some snacks and then it was time for me to go to bed...
Good long weekend... lots to do, but never overwhelming. Nice.
