FULL WEEKEND
1. We were out all day Saturday -- from about 10 am until around 2am. We first drove out to the Westside to celebrate the first birthday of Gabriel, Mark and Gina's son. There were many other kids there, which I assume, all our future parties will be like for the next 15 years. But it was great to see them and London and Summer too (along with their son Nolan). K and I knew we were in trouble becuase we felt exhausted just watching the kids run and jump around non-stop. Good news for both Mark and Gina and London and Summer is that they're each expecting their second child. Congrats!
2. We drove completely across town to visit Karena's PT school classmate at her home in Glendora. It was sad because they just put in thousands of dollars and countless hours at Home Depot getting their house just right. And now, after only owning it for less than a year, they're having to sell it to move closer to work. That stinks! We also met a guy who has a 70" TV and si really into "CSI" and similar shows on cable like Court TV's "Forensic Files." That perked Karena's interest and now she's been watching as many of those shows as she can.
3. We ended the evening hanging out with Sandra and Gabe and Liz and Steven. It was mellow and relaxing, but still nice to see everybody.
4. Sunday's worship service was small because of Summer Retreat and it was a skeleton crew serving. I had to lead worship with Jesse's guitar and stand at the pulpit since there were no other mics to use. That was awkard! But things went smoothly.
5. We've also been given free Showtime and HBO for the weekend so we've been watching a lot of movies including S.W.A.T., New York Minute (K's choice), The Terminal (we love this movie), Glory, etc. We also saw 40 Year-Old Virgin with Sanj & Gabe, and Liz and Steven, but I thought it was pretty bad.
6. Thank God I have a 4 day weekend to recover from all this!
