Sorry it's been so long

I'm really not trying to make up excuses as to why it's been so stinking long since I've posted anything but I've just been really busy. I have stuff going on every night last week and this week and I just have been putting this off. But I've had a great time reading all the comments about the Christmas tree.
Anywho, I hadn't really been looking forward to this past weekend. I wasn't not looking forward to it, I just wasn't excited for it. Friday night some Roanoke people came down to Morton which is a very rare occurence. We had supper at The Brick Oven and then went to the Pumpkin Fest for a Pumpkin Pie Blizzard. Good stuff. Me and Erin decided to split a BBQ chicken pizza cause they're pretty big. We could only get a 12 inch. So we got it and were pretty excited cause we really like BBQ chicken pizza. But it was disgusting. Something about the sauce was weird. So that was kinda dissapointing. I hate spending money on stuff I don't even like. She spent the night and then we went to the parade on Saturday before we went back to Roanoke and ate at my aunt's resturant. (I never know how to spell that word so don't worry about it if it's wrong.) Then we had to go to the fellowship hall to set up for the elderly supper given by the young group on Sunday. It was a blast. All the old people were absolutely hilarious. Me and Amy Hohulin snagged the table full of single girls (most of them were over 80). We didn't actually talk to them a whole lot but it was really fun just watching them interact with each other. They were just like us only older. Making fun of each other, talking about clothes, talking about boys (not that we would ever do that)..... it was a lot of fun though. But I was glad to get home and go to bed. Me and my brother had stayed up talking until 2 am Saturday night and missed out on our Sunday afternoon naps because of the supper. That was another highlight of the weekend. Getting to talk to him for that long. Then last night we had Mandy' baby shower at my parent's house. She had so many presents that they were overflowing out of the living room to where I couldn't even open the front door all the way. It's crazy to think of her and Dustin being parents. Whoda thunk? But I'm getting pretty excited for the baby to come. Except sometimes I think I got jipped on the whole relationship there. I mean, how much fun is it to get in a baby's face and be like "Hi punkin who's your favorite double first cousin once removed?" Seriously- between living with Mandy for two years and Dustin being more like a brother than a cousin..... I totally got jipped.
So that's my recap of the past few days. Sorry it's not too exciting. Have a lovely day today!

Good post, Sarah!

I've had that BBQ Chicken pizza at Brick Oven, too, and I agree that it is disgusting. It IS the sauce... it's just wrong. At least you got to wash it down with a tasty Pumpkin Pie Blizzard from good ol' DQ. Can't go wrong, there.

Sounds like your weekend ended up being a good one...

Just call yourself Aunt Sarah. By the time the baby's old enough to figure out you're not his aunt for real, it'll be so ingrained that he won't be able to do anything about it! :)

I'm with Luke on this one, I have always called two of my first cousins-once-removed aunt and uncle. Works great, except when you have to explain the relationship to people. :)

Hmm, you just can't beat East of Chicago's bbq pizza...

Ok, actually I really don't like it at all & greatly prefer my own, but I thought I'd at least throw in a happy memory. :)
