This weekend

Friday: Neither David nor myself can remember what we did on Friday.  We remember Wednesday, Thursday but we can't remember Friday. So feel free to make up some fun adventure for us to have gone on. Best adventure wins.

Saturday: We were productive first thing in the morning. We went to Sam's to do some shopping and sampling. Turns out, the Sam's here doesn't start their sampling stuff until closer to eleven-thirty and we were already done and just ready to get out of there by then. Next we picked up a couple things from David's old house, namely his grills and our new kitchen table (our old kitchen table is now my desk). I internetted while David, manly man that he is, put our table together. Then we headed out to Toledo to go on a Dillard's shopping spree. It was a lot of fun. We had 458 so dollars to just go crazy with. We bought our two place settings of china that we had returned so they could avoid the move, a crystal vase (that was fifty percent off!), some beautiful bedding (that was seventy-five percent off!), a few shirts, a few kitchen gadgets, and some disappointing Pyrex that we will take back if we ever go to Toledo again. We came home and unloaded everything. David threw a pizza in the oven while I made the bed with our beautiful new bedding. I had been starving so that pizza was the best thing I had ever tasted. Thank you, Digiorno. 
Next we brought out a sheet and a couple blankets to the front room and built a fort. It was a lot of fun. I remember building tents and forts when I was a kid, having no concept at all of maybe breaking this or possibly ruining that. I just went with it; no big deal. And my tents were awesome. It was slightly harder being a grown up, but I tried to ignore that chiding and reasonable voice my head for the building process and it worked out just fine.

Then we crawled underneath and called Jerra and Claysen and Max on the webcam. It was really fun to talk to them. Jerra is such a cutie. But we told them we were in a fort and when they come and visit us, we can al build a fort and eat pizza and candy! Jerra "Oh my"ed and giggled and clapped her hands. Max made monkey noises at us and Claysen was just laying back, too sick to be very responsive or excitable. Then we hung up and snuggled under blankets and watched cartoons like The Tick, Futurama, Harvey Birdman and the Venture Brothers. It was a lot of fun. Eventually we got too tired - and I was too cold - to stay in the fort much longer. We crawled into our bed and I oohed and ahhed over how wonderful our bedding was and David just grunted at me. Turns out he doesn't get the whole bedding thing. Oh, well.

Sunday: David made me waffles first thing in the morning and I made some bacon and we enjoyed a nice little breakfast together. We just lazed around the house for the rest of the morning because our church doesn't start until 1 o' freaking-clock. Church was good. The first speaker was a cute girl but she was very nervous. It was nice though. We sat through Sunday school like champs and then split up for third hour stuff. Relief Society let out before Priesthood and I sat, waiting on him. When he came out he told me the bishop wanted to see us. Long story short, I was called to be Young Women's secretary and he was asked to be Elder's Quorum secretary. The bishop told us first thing that we had made quite a splash because everyone wanted us to be on their whatever. I can just see it "I want the new people who aren't completely burnt out of being ___." We accepted even though we hung our heads in the car. I think this means I might have to do something for girls' camp this summer. I don't know how to spell the awful face I am making while thinking of that.

And that was our weekend. Hope y'all's was comparably good, but not better. Because no one should be better than me! Aw, I'm just kidding ya. You're great.
