Less than three weeks!

Well, three weeks came and went and I didn’t post anything. I know you were all bitterly disappointed about that ;o)

So, what’s new? Well, last weekend we had a lovely dinner with two other couples for our anniversaries. It was good to catch up with them. It’s pretty much the only time we get together with them all each year! We tried to get a free dessert by mentioning our anniversaries but it didn’t work. Maybe next year! Then the next day we went to a wedding rehearsal. I’m doing the video and Charley is MC. Seems like they got everything figured out. The wedding is tomorrow – can’t believe how quickly that came around. And on Sunday we went to Georgetown Spanish. Charley gave a new talk that I hadn’t heard before and he did a great job. Then we went to a friend’s house for dinner. So it was a busy weekend.

With our anniversary buddies.

Monday night/Tuesday morning our friends arrived from England. Yay!!!! It’s great to have them. I didn’t actually see them until I got home from work on Tuesday. We went to the meeting with them in English – it was nice to visit my old hall since we rarely make it back to see everyone. On Wednesday Charley and I spent the day with them. We had a BLAST! Charley made a delicious breakfast at home, then we went duckpin bowling (http://www.fountainsquareindy.com/bowling/index.asp) which was a lot harder than I thought it would be but we had a great time. Then we had a fabulous lunch at Tortas Guicho. For anyone that lives in Indy you’ve got to try this place - http://tortasguicho.com/. Their sandwiches are all named after famous people or countries. I had the “England” and it was really, really good! So, all in all we ate a lot and had a good time hanging out together. In the evening four of us went to see a musical at a local high school. I wasn’t expecting it to be all that great, but WOW, these high school kids over here have some serious talent! Great singing, good acting, and it was only $5!! Thoroughly entertaining.

This is a really boring post isn’t it?! You can just stop reading here if you like, it’s not getting any better in the next paragraph!

So, the most exciting thing that happened last weekend (at least the most exciting thing to me) was that I made some serious progress in my bag search!!! Since I’d blogged about it, a sister in my mam and dad’s congregation read it, and told me to come over because she has tons of bags. When I explained what I was looking for, she’s like, oh well just find a bag you like, and then we’ll add backpack straps to it!!! So I found one that would work, and a backpack, and she took the straps off one bag and is putting them on to the other, so it will have backpack straps and shoulder straps! WOHOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! I’ll post a picture of it when it’s done!

So, tomorrow is the wedding. And Sunday we have hospitality for the visiting speaker. It’s all go! Oh, and in my shopping expedition on Saturday I got almost everything we still needed for our trip and finally found tan ankle socks – you have no idea how excited I was to find those! I’m not even going to try and explain why that’s exciting!!


And this evening we were at my cousin's house. Look how cute their little baby girl is! 

Well, that’s all for now. Hope everyone out there is doing well.
