First, I have to say, I LOVE this time change! It's like half of the year I am not functioning properly. But fall gets here and the clock goes back to normal and I am slightly better functioning, which is a HUGE blessing!
Friday night was crazy! I left work early so I could get to the church and transform my car into a spider for our Trunk or Treat. Well I tell you what, I am NOT doing that again! At least not by myself. The wind was blowing my trash bags all over the place and I couldn't tape it fast enough to get it all together. My car didn't look anything like a spider! But the game that we played, kids seemed to enjoy. And thankfully, Brett got off of work a little early so he showed up to help me. I don't know what I would have done without him when kids started to show up. We had a great turn out and the event was a huge success, apart from my crazy car! I learned a lot for sure, but I'm not sure I learned enough to be willing to try it again.
Saturday was good, I think. I spent so much time last week trying to find the perfect outfits for Brett and I to wear in our engagement pictures and then the shirt that I got him didn't work out. So I wore my white shirt and he wore his clean shirt. I was a little disappointed driving to pick up our photographer, but I was trying SO hard to have a good attitude! And then I immediately felt better when we picked up Sam. Our photographer is AWESOME! She is that cool quirky college student that every girl wants to be after she watches Reality Bites or Empire Records for the first time. Her apartment was so groovy. She had cool furniture and art hanging on every empty spot. It made me a little jealous. Our pictures were fairly quick and mostly painless. I will be a little nervous until I see them, but I am sure we got some good shots. It was the first time that Brett and I had pictures taken of us and I am glad that I had fun. I will always remember that day =-)
Sunday was an adventure! Brett and I were asked to be extras in KidStuf, our churches children's production that they put on every Sunday. He was a general and I was a leper. We were both totally nervous about learning our lines and having to say them in front of a room full of people, but in the end it was really fun. The team that does KidStuf every week is so great and they all get along so well, they welcomed us with open arms and made us feel as comfortable as was possible. And we both did great on our lines!
So all in all it was a good weekend, but it was full of things that I am glad are over. I didn't get any work done this weekend other than Sunday School business so I have a LOT to do this week! I am taking Thursday and Friday off of work. Thursday is all about the wedding and Friday is all about the Open House. So hopefully it will be a productive week. It has to be!
Oh, and I also started Breaking Dawn last night. Mistake! I can't put it down when I pick it up and I really don't have time to be obsessed with it this week. But it's already so good! I cried like a baby while I was reading it this morning and I'm only in the 4th chapter!
