Lunch Break
Official Countdown: 194 Days. I just emailed the florist to let her know we want her to do it. Once we send her a deposit, we're golden. The cake-tasting is scheduled for this week. I'm looking forward to that. I like cake =) Other news on the wedding front...Matt booked our honeymoon (did I mention that in the last post?). I would tell you where, but frankly, I don't want to. I'm really excited about it though. He showed me the website and it looks so fun! I still flip through the occasional Bridal Magazine, but now that I have a better idea of what I want I'm finding much fewer things to rip out.
This weekend was fun for the most part. After work on Friday Matt and I went up to the city to hang out up there. The plan was to wander around, but by the time we ate (with Leya!) and bought the Mighty Ducks trilogy (one of my all-time favorite trilogies) we decided to go home and relax. We ended up watching the first two Might Duck movies, but decided against popping the 3rd one in since it was already around 1am. Chris tried to get us stuck watching Longshot (pretty much the worst movie ever) and successfully had me mesmerized. Fortunately Matt had the presence of mind to turn the TV off before we were stuck watching the entire movie.
On Saturday my mom and I met with a florist who made it very easy to go with the first one we met with (the second one was almost $1,000 more). After that, I met up with Jeanna and Rene and we went down to the Gilroy outlets to go shopping! While I spent a good amount of money, I think I did pretty well. Everything I got will be used and was a reasonable price (plus on sale). It was really fun to shop with other girls again. It's been a while since I've had a chance to go shopping with my friends instead of by myself.
Saturday night I went up to Matt's parent's house and got to play Wii for a while (his parents just got one)! It was so fun. Although my thumb started to hurt during Mario Kart...I think I was pushing on the gas too hard.
Sunday we went to church as usual, and John talked about why bad things happen and how God gives permission for bad things - he doesn't do them. After church we met up with my family at the Blackhawk Automobile Museum in Danville for my grandpa's birthday. It was really cool! I really enjoyed the tour. The cars were so cool and pretty (very shiny). After that Matt went to his meeting and I went to Refuge (the college/young adult service). I liked the message. I don't know who was speaking, but he talked about Worship, and I think he did a really good job of it.
By the time we got back to Matt's parent's house and I was able to leave, I was exposed to Jasper (their cat) a little too long, and it became difficult to breathe. Because I've needed to use my inhaler more frequently, I've been feeling more of the side effects, so that was quite annoying. So that part of the weekend wasn't as good. The rest was fun, though. Oh, and the Sharks lost in the 4th overtime! I was hoping it would be Sharks vs. Penguins, but alas, it is not to be. Oh well. Go Pittsburgh!
