It's so weird because I've slowed down the past few days. Thursday night was the first time in a long time that I didn't have anything to do. No homework, no appointments, no nothing! It was so nice but I wasn't quite sure what to do with myself. I ended up taking a 50 minute walk with my mom and just relaxing. It was total bliss!
Friday I went to a baby shower for my friend, Ann. She is having twins in August.
Nathan worked this weekend so I had Sat. and Sun. to entertain myself also. It was so weird to do whatever I wanted. I swept the basement, walked on the treadmill, did some shopping and looked for a hair place for the wedding on Sat. That night, Nathan and I went to dinner at McGurks. Sunday, I had lunch with my mom and then we shopped and saw a movie. Sunday night, I FINALLY updated my MP3 player and Nathan and I watched a movie. It was so nice to have time to do whatever I wanted.
Nathan was not so lucky. Besides working, he had to fix our shower. Luckily, he was able to take care of it and we don't have to call a plumber. I love that he's so handy around the house!

So, that was our boring but fabulous weekend! Tonight we are meeting with a travel agent to disuss honeymoon ideas!

Remember to vote tonight!

Love,
Dawn
