Last weekend was hands down the best weekend of my life. It was the kind of weekend I'll forever be chasing and trying to recreate. I took a couple days off work and spent 4 days at my parent's house on the lake between marathons of Settlers of Catan with my siblings. We even got in a huge, serious fight over questionable moves which in hindsight only contributes to the awesomeness of the weekend. Every story needs a little conflict, right? I soaked up some sun with Tara on the deck on the lake and while Jeremy baited hook after hook for all our nephews.
I hardly have the words for how magical last weekend was - but I have to make note of it here so I can always remember how fantastic those 4 little days were.
Happy Friday everyone. Here's to the weekend.
Kathleen - We have a special word in my family for when you overreact to a moment in Settlers: a "catantrum." No good game is complete without one. Happy Weekend!
ReplyDeleteSounds like the PERFECT weekend. I love Catan!!
ReplyDeleteHa, I had to laugh at the Settlers of Catan comment. My boyfriend and I once broke up over that game due to "questionable moves" and also he was ganging up against me with the other players, I swear it! Haha, totally traumatizing at the time.....but now somewhat funny :)
ReplyDeleteI think I may have already shared this with you but because I watched the Metal Evolution marathon again this weekend and since you posted Donny's image I have to say I got a bit giddy when I "KNEW" someone on TV. Not that I've ever met your brother but when he came on the screen I was like AWESOME... I know his sister, I read her blog and while I don't KNOW either of you personally/in real life it's still funny to recognize someone in the media. :)
ReplyDeletevron - "Catantrum" is my new favorite word. My whole family had a good laugh at that one - thank you!
ReplyDeleteKelly - That is so cool! I've yet to see Metal Evolution - I need to keep my eyes peeled. I'm hoping he gets a show of his own one day soon!
