Jayne's Bridal Shower

May 24, 2006 23:15

So last weekend, I:


  • Cut off 10 inches of my hair at 9 am Friday.

  • Drove to Rochester, PA (near Pittsburgh) at 10 am Friday.

  • Arrived at Also's apartment in Rochester at 4:15ish pm Friday. (One of the longest and most boring drives I've ever taken....probably because I was driving alone with only a radio player, and because it was I-81 to I-80 to I-79. So boring.....)
  • Rejoiced at seeing Also for the first time since August!

  • Rejoiced when Tina arrived around 6 pm, seeing her for the first time since August!

  • Dinner with Also and Tina (yummy Chinese food!), then saw Also's band....yay for the song "New Girl Down in Pittsburgh"!

  • Donuts with Tina and Also Saturday morning.

  • Jayne's Bridal Shower Saturday afternoon. Tina and I got slightly lost on the way there (missed a turn with poor signage), but got there with plenty of time. Alex was the best behaved 4.5 year old I've seen in a while! She's better than most of the kindergarteners and first graders I see all the time substituting. Tina's bridal shower game was a hoot! (See pictures for details.) Ash's mom made the cake, which was gorgeous and tasted divine! I wish I would have gotten a picture of it. Overall, definitely a fun time.

    I was a bit bummed that I didn't get a chance to really talk to Jayne (or Ash), or to say "bye" to them.....I was helping Tina get into her hotel room near the end of the shower, and when we returned to the bridal shower room 5 minutes after getting Tina to her room, everyone had disappeared. :o(

  • Drove 2 hours to Johnstown to spend the night with Heather and Brad.

  • Pizza and local soft-serve ice cream with Heather and Brad!

  • Playstation Jeopardy! with Heather Sunday morning

  • Lunch and shopping with Heather

  • Driving home for 5 hours.....



I think I was on the road more than I was with people this weekend, really.....but oh well. It was worth driving to Pittsburgh to see Tina, Also, Jayne, and Ash, even if just for a few hours.....plus, I got to see my sister (and take some of my clothes back that she borrowed!).

Want to see some pictures? Take a peek!

As for me.....I'm booked for substituting until the end of May, but not for any days after. Unless something major comes up (teacher illness), I probably won't go in during June. Summer job - Camp Archbald (my local Girl Scout Camp). I'll be out of cell phone contact all summer starting mid-June to the middle of August, except for a few Saturdays. I'll post my summer address (if people want to use actual mail *gasp*) when I remember what the camp address is.....

Have terrific Memorial Day weekends everyone! :o)
