This week has flown by...and now, Matt and I are off to Michigan today for what appears to be the last weekend for awhile. Fingers crossed. I am so ready to stay home indefinitely!
My wonderful friend Kirsten married her boyfriend of a gazillion years, Joel, at the Chicago Cultural Center in April. They wanted to wait to celebrate their marriage until Joel had finished his PhD program. SO! We're headed to their backyard bbq wedding "party" at Kirsten's parents' home in Flint this weekend. I am really looking forward to a nice, relaxed weekend of fun with friends.
Tonight, we'll have dinner with my parents, and then meet up with Lisa and her boyfriend Randy. Tomorrow morning, Matt and I will be heading to the Detroit Metro airport to pick up my good college friend, Jon. The three of us will spend a few hours in Ann Arbor (and lunch at Zingerman's!) before going on to Flint for Kirsten and Joel's wedding party. Early Sunday morning, I'll be taking Jon back to the aiport (he has a 9am flight...ick!). And a few hours later, Matt and I will start the drive back to Indiana. We are stopping in Indianapolis to meet our friends Ryan and Amber for dinner. They are expecting their first child - a daughter named Jaida! - any day now, which is very exciting. Hopefully Amber will hold out on going into labor until after we have dinner, since we haven't seen them since OUR wedding almost 10 months ago.
So! That's our weekend. Wait, did I say it would be a relaxing weekend? I take that back. I'm already tired just typing all of it out here. What is everyone else doing this weekend? Anything fun and exciting?

Have fun! I know what you mean by wanting a weekend at home! We've been traveling every weekend for about 8 weeks straight now!
I also love the name Jaida! That's one of our pics if we ever have a girl :-) (though the hubby thinks it should be spelt Jayda)
Wow! Busy weekend, girl. I hope that all the traveling and driving doesn't do you in with your sinuses. Thinking of you.
No meth for you, Shaina!
I hope you feel better, enjoy your trip, and have safe, safe travels!
Have so much fun! It is birthday weekend here so we will be eating lots of cake and hanging out with family.
Hope you feel better.
Safe travels my friend! Hope you feel better soon!!
Oh have a fun weekend - it sounds like it will be amazing. Also my pharmacy is ridiculous about sudafed and I never remember to buy some when I'm feeling better so I don't have to go there when I'm all congested.
Have a great time!!! Be safe! Enjoy the bbq
And right after you all just started the school year? You're my hero!
I hope you're feeling better. I've been MIA as well and have only just seen your lovely new blog layout! I think it's just lovely :)
Sounds like you had a busy weekend! Hope it was a good one! Hope you're feeling better too =)
I'm totally late, but just wanted to say you were up in my neck of the woods! I live in Flint. :)
I'm so happy that you guys came!!! It was great to see you, I miss you. Joel and I need to plan our trip to Bloomington!
Kirsten
