It's a Wonderful Weekend!

..or is that "Life"?  hehehe

We spent this weekend with Brandon's friends (I am working on claiming them as my friends!) dress shopping (we're in Ana and Jesse's wedding this September) and watching sci-fi.  A wonderful weekend!  The girls found their dresses (Ana's is gorgeous!!!) on Saturday and in the evening Jesse, Ana, Dick, and the two of us went to Upstream for dinner.  The restaurant was having their 5th anniversary, so Ana and I got our faces painted.  Yes, I know, but it was fun!  And we're still trying to get the glitter out of our apartment.  Persistent stuff!  hehehe

I cannot wait to be able to relax for the evening and have a background like the picture below! - Brandon

COLD!

Just thought I would like to share how cold it was this morning when I left for work. :) - brandon

I uploaded a new picture displaying just how cold it was today.  Now I must run off and get ready for bed. :)

Honeybells!

We're enjoying taking a break from our sorting and packing to enjoy a Honeybell.  My parents were gracious enough to share the Honeybells with us this year.  (You would know just how big a sacrifice  this is if you knew how good these fruits are - the brochure that came with the box said you could be a "hero" if you chose to share a Honeybell with a friend.  In their words, "After you bite into your first juicy Cushman Honeybell, you'll be tempted to hide the box, say nothing to anyone and keep them all for yourself.  But...think of the smiles of wonder and delight; the adoration and undying gratitude of your family, friends, and neighbors if you share [only a few, of course]."  I decided I'd share with my sweet hubby!) [Side note: I LOVE Cushman's humor in marketing!  They're great!)  This was Brandon's first Honeybell experience, and I'm proud to say, he managed to stay fairly sticky-less depsite the juicy-ness Honeybells are famed for.  His verdict, "Good."  Yup, that's my hubby, a man of many words.  hehehe

We're down to less than three weeks til we jet off to Japan.  Be thinking of us next week as we pack up our things and ship them on ahead of us!  Should be an adventure in and of itself!  Happy thoughts!
