Unexpected Busy Weekend!

Earlier in the week, my weekend plans included going to eat burger's at Karen's and then maybe go see a movie with Teresa on Saturday, but as the weekend got going I did so much more!

Friday Night:

Burgers at the Berger's!

Teresa and I were invited to go to Karen and Collin's for their Faithful Fridays meeting. It's with their church group. It was lots of fun and I was excited about getting to see their house with all their stuff in it.

While we were eating, Jessica B. told us she was planning on going to Pickin' and Paddelin' at Mayes Lake on Saturday and Jessica H. was going to be her partner but had to back out, so I volunteered to take her place. I wasnt' sure what I was thinking, I haven't been canoeing since I was in the 7th grade! But I figured it would be fun!

Saturday:

The canoe races turned out to be lots of fun! At one point we were afraid that we wouldn't be racing at all. About 10 minutes before it was time for our race at 1:45 p.m., it started pouring down rain, and once it finally stopped, it was thundering and lightening, so they postponed it again. It finally stopped and we were finally able to race around 2:30 p.m. We came in last, but we still had lots of fun!

Here are a few pictures that Teresa took:

Paddlin' back to shore!

Finished!

Later that afternoon, Teresa and I went to the Malco to see Letters to Juliet! This movie was so cute! A great chick flick, with a happy ending!

For dinner, Teresa and I decided on Chile's. We mainly went for the 2 for 1 margaritas! It was a great way to end the day!

Sunday:

I woke up semi-early to get some shopping done. I hadn't been to Wal-Mart in months and was out of just about everything. I also when to Kroger, most of my coupons where for Kroger use only.

That afternoon, I went to Clinton for my cousin Philip's bridal shower. (Well the shower was for Kenna, his fiance, but I only knew him and his family.) My mom and sister would have gone, but Teresa had to work and my mom was getting my Gramma out of the hospital. So it was left up to me to go to the shower and represent the family. The shower was really nice, and it was great to spend some time with family I hadn't seen in a while!!!

Once I got home, I did as little as possible, I was so tired from the weekend, but glad it was filled with lots of fun!
