I can't express how much it ministered to my worn out spirit to be surrounded by a bunch of my best girl friends for a few hours, haha. I was so blessed by the brownies that the Diehl girls made for me... gluten free, dairy free, sugar free = so yummy for my tummy. It's just a small thing, but it meant a lot to me that they gave me something sweet to eat without the risk of getting sick. The whole get together just really blessed me :) And dude. I was given a slotted wooden spoon, a bamboo salad bowl, and the coolest metal / wooden measuring cups I've ever seen.. I can't wait to use them, haha. The comforter set for our bed is very elegant and I love it.. Oh and Aunt Linda gave me a crock pot! AWESOME. Obviously I got some other super cute stuff ;) which was a blast to go through.
Josh's guy friends hit the nail on the head with his surprise: They rented out his favorite arcade and gave him endless tokens... He was in heaven! He said a bunch of his good guy friends came out and he really enjoyed himself. I was thrilled when I heard what they'd planned for him.. So "josh." I know that he had a BLAST!
Tonight is my last 'date' with my parents before I'm married and I'm leaving them. I'm looking forward to it... We're doing the classic "dinner and a movie" thing. I like my parents and I'm looking forward to what wisdom I'm sure they'll pass along this evening :) It's really hit me this week that i'm LEAVING them, haha. No turning back. I'm leaving the house I grew up the most in, and I'm leaving my family. I'm thrilled! about my new house and my new family, but you know. It's like.. bittersweet. Emphasis on the sweet, though :P I'M SO EXCITED.
Since I'm going out with my parents, though, I'm missing Jordan's last race of the summer :( which means I'll prrrrobably miss him getting to stand up there on the podium. It's not a sure thing that he'll place, but I'm pretty confident that he'll be up there.. it's a bummer that I'm missing it..
OKAY I need to run a lot of errands today. Lebanon, Rivergate, Hermitage, and Providence.. lots of driving. Better start heading for the door, haha. FOUR MORE DAYS OMG
That was so much fun!
