Doing better...

Well the weekend is winding down, but it was a great one!

Friday, Carrie came over for dinner, Saturday we hit to get Curt some hiking boots at REI to shop, then enjoyed watching little Dylan later in the evening for our friends Rachel and Mike – it’s their wedding anniversary so we offered to babysit so they could go on a date! So we had fun and went to the park, fed him dinner, and just entertained him in general. He's pretty laid back so it was a lot of fun! Helps to that Dylan loves Curt (and he likes me too, but it’s ridiculous how much he LOVES Curt!)… we went on a picnic with them a couple weekends ago and he had such a great time just walking circles around us as he ate! At one point, he had a string cheese in his hand (he’s 1.5 years old, by the way) and he tripped over a stick and fell, so the cheese got really dirty, but it was like he wanted to “save” the cheese because as soon as he fell, the cheese (and dirt) went in the mouth! It was hysterical… Rachel had to fish it out. I mean a little dirt is ok but it was *covered* - I was laughing for like 5 minutes from his facial expressions… haha!


So anyway, that’s Saturday, and then today I went to a flower arranging class at Pottery Barn with Heather, learned some great stuff, and and then we did some things around the house! Curt did a TON on the garage, so I am happy, and then had the rest of the day free so we went to see "Made of Honor" which was too cute – I LOVE having free time!! Very unused to the whole idea in general, but man it's great!

Monday will also be a great time as we have our YL Crawfish Boil which is always a very big bash! And speaking of, I’m also really excited because earlier this week I found out that Curt and I are taking some YL kids to Wilderness! Yes, Wilderness – the very same trip I took 9 years ago as a Young Lifer in school… I’m SO excited to share this experience with Curt and to be on the other side this time… it’s going to be AMAZING!! And insanely hard, as well… I keep thinking to myself that back in high school I was the epitome of in shape, and even then it was ridiculously hard, so Curt and I will need to get our rears in gear and hit the gym to start preparing! And that’s why we went to REI – so Curt could start breaking some boots in!

Our garden is coming along so far now that we’re in the heart of spring… I *love* our backyard! We also got new patio furniture that we picked out last weekend… very excited, it's great and we spent this evening with my whole family enjoying it outside with a lovely dinner and dessert! I think this set will be more conducive to us using it more so we’ll be able to spend more time outside. I already sold our old patio furniture – on Craigs List – and got a great price for it (in fact, got the same amount that we paid for it 1.5 years ago, but of course it was in better condition than what we got it in as we painted it, reinforced legs, etc.) so I was very happy!


AND this next week is going to continue to be great b/c Ashley is coming into town! I get to see the boys AGAIN and I’m thrilled to see how her belly is growing!! We’re also going to see Chandler in High School Musical so that should be so fun!

Anyway, that’s the latest and just trying to update more regularly!

Hope everyone is doing well!

Yippeeeeee! I was mentioned AGAIN! That's two times in a row!! I'm on a roll! Soon people will be asking for my autograph because I'm so famous!!

It's not fair, you get to see Chandler in her play before I get to :) Oh well, I think my mom has tickets for me for both Friday and Saturday.

Get excited, I'll be there tomorrow night!
