What a fun weekend!

Chris and I really enjoy hanging out with our friends and family and were fortunate enough to get to do that all weekend long!

Friday was lots of fun... We had two of my friends from college over for dinner, Colleen and Marisa. They're super special people and I had the privelege of playing on the Brenau softball team with them. They came over for dinner (Colleen always loves my cooking which makes me feel great!) and then we just talked forever and reminisced about "the old days" at Brenau. We even played a little Wii. Marisa dominated at bowling and then we played a little tennis. It was so good to see them and I can't wait to go watch them play some softball this upcoming season.

Saturday was an excellent day. Chris and I had absolutely nothing to do and were able to relax all day and get ready for my family and his sister to come over. So exciting!!! We had been looking forward to this all week. Chris and I had bought a Wii the weekend before and we invited all of them over for dinner and a Wii tournament! We got some wings, I made baked potato wedges, Mom brought broccoli salad and an AMAZING assortment of cookies and Kristi brought the drinks. We had SO much fun and it was just so nice to have everyone together. I made brackets for a Wii Bowling and Wii Tennis tournament! Dad and I dominated at tennis! Well, not really dominated, but we won! And then Chris made an awesome come back in bowling to beat Ryan by 3 pins! It was so much fun! Then we just rocked out to a little Guitar Hero and watched a few people do some boxing. I thought at one point that Nancy was going to have a real boxing match with our TV...she was getting into it! :) But she didn't. We had a really great time with everyone and hopefully will get to do that again really soon!

Sunday was, as I'm sure you know, SUPER BOWL SUNDAY!!! We were invited to go out to Winder to spend the afternoon and evening with one of Chris's former co-workers, Tommy, and his family. Tommy and Erica are so much fun to be around and their kids are absolutely adorable. We took the Wii and Tommy and Chris played pretty much all afternoon while Erica and I chatted and I got to play with Dalton, their 6.5 month old son. A few more people showed up right before the game started, but then we were all eating and watching the game and commercials so we didn’t get to chat with them much. We didn't get to watch the halftime show because the Wii was on (go figure!) but I heard we didn't miss much anyway. But overall it was a really great day with really great friends!

There's not too much going on this week in our lives. We're both trying to fight off a sinus thing so we'll probably just stay around the house and rest as much as we can. We have an exciting trip to a cabin with friends for Valentine's Day weekend so we can't wait for that!
