Life is wonderful.
And although I really hate writing insignificant posts about what I do every day, I feel like my weekend was just sooo great, that I just have to do that.
So here is how amazing my weekend was.
First, I went home Friday afternoon.
It was a leisurely afternoon: I read a bit, spent some time at home, then the fam went out for some din din.
Boston's. I had some delish buffalo chicken sliders.
While at dinner, I got a text from Thomas telling me he was already off work!
Woot!
So we ended up getting to start our night together at 9, instead of 10/10:30.
So what did we do? We had a date night!
We went mini golfing at Grand Slam!
Then we rented a Redbox (Just Go With It) and cuddled up on the couch together.
Good day.
Family and Thomas.
Perf.
Then Sat was wonderful.
The morning started with some fast-paced shopping with momma.
Then it was off to my first bridal shower!
It was mostly the aunts and cousins from my mom's side of the family, and then some friends from school.
Oh my goodness, I had a hoot!
We played fun games, ate great food, and there were, of course, presents to open.
It was a wonderful time!
When the party finished, I drove out to a secret spot for a surprise from my Thomas...
He had text me directions to an address and told me he'd meet me there.
After driving for about a half hour, I came upon the secret destination: An Apple Orchard!
Thomas had read in my blog how I wanted to go to one, and so he surprised me in between his double shift Saturday!
It was so much fun!
We went through a corn maze,
petted some cute lil' goats,
picked a ton of apples (and ate a couple),
and picked a pumpkin!
The time went too fast before he had to go to work.
While Thomas was off at work, I went with my family to visit my grandparents.
It was my grandpa's 82nd birthday, so we had dinner and cake and ice cream over there with some other family members.
It was great to spend time together.
Plus, there were babies! :)
Eventually, Thomas and I saw each other again, and spent the last couple hours of the night cuddled up on the couch with another movie.
This time, we watched Mars Needs Moms.
Sunday came, along with yet another gorgeous day of sunshine!
Off to church Thomas and I went!
It was fast Sunday, my favorite!
Thomas and I both bore our testimonies in church,
although, that's normal.
After church, we had dinner with our families, then I went back over to his house.
And we carved our pumpkin!
Woot!
It was a simply perfect weekend.
I saw, family, friends, and Thomas.
It was filled with wonderful people, wonderful fun, and wonderful weather.
Life just couldn't get much better right now!
Katie,
ReplyDeleteWhat a coincidence, my Grandpa turned 80 (not 82 but still cool) over the weekend also. =)
My sister got married and i thought of You, it's just over 2 months away! My brother & his wife brought their baby there and it was great:)
i was driving back from UWRF the other day and heard "She's In Love With The Boy" by Trisha Yearwood. What are the chances of finding a song with Katie & Tommy in it? i don't think that's how things are with You 2 or anything but just thought i'd share! Sharing IS Caring!
Happy Hump Day! ;)
