Monday Again

Well, so it's Monday again. I know that day comes every week, but i wish it had the same ring as FRIDAY!!!!

It has been a busy last week. Chris' church had their assembly-where they all get together and do church stuff-like a church conference for 3-4 days last week. So we saw the whole gang-it was nice to see everyone. We even got to finish the week off by a nice lunch with Chris' parents--as I was working that week and didn't get to go to all the stuff and see them all week-so it was nice to catch up over lunch before they left town.

Chris and I pitched our tent on Friday. We were going to go "real" camping, but we didn't want to drive out to a state park, adn also decided that if we camped in our backyard, we could cook dinner, have a real bathroom, and hang out until it cooled off outside. So yes, we did a bit of pansy camping this time,but it was still fun. We didn't get to make smores, or breakfast over a campfire, but it was fun to put the tent up and listen to the bugs lull us to sleep. Well, at least me to sleep-i don't think chris slept very well-he said he was hot all night. That's too bad b/c i slept like a baby! I guess i spend quite a bit more time out in the heat than he does....so maybe that's part of it.

On Saturday morning, we went to worlds of fun and rode the roller coaster : The Patriot. It was a pretty good ride. I have to tell you-i loved it in the first row...and chris love the back row....it's one of those rides where your feet dangle over the side and there is a chest harness that comes over your head so you don't fall off...so i liked being able to see what was coming up and feeling like we were on the verge of falling off, whereas chris liked the ricochet effect of sitting in the back and nearly blacking out. To each their own.

Then we went to Oceans of fun for a bit of cooling off. I haven't really spent much time there, but it was fun to go to the water park. It wasn't nearly as crowded as I would have thought for a Saturday. We went on a few slides, and enjoyed soaking up some sun and chilling out. It was nice just to spend time together and hang out.

Today, my mom is in town for some business stuff, and we're having her over for dinner tonight!!! I'm excited to see her and hear about her worldly travels. I can't wait!

SO i guess this monday does have a happy ending!
