Late Nights.

The last couple nights I've been up to the wee hours of the morning (...3:30am) either talking to friends on MSN or hanging out with a friend and not being able to really say goodbye. Both nights were completely worth the exhaustion that I feel now.

As I stretch, yawn and look at the clock, I realize I must get on with my day. The only downside to staying up so late would be the sleeping the day away the next morning. Currently, I must get up, shower, dress, drive to our dog groomer's, pick up Mocha, drive home, meet up with my mom and her friends and put together bridal shower invitations for my mom's best friend.

Sidenote: Putting four of them in a room together with me will be quite interesting as they try to pry information out of me. I can see it now--I'll just be sitting there with my head on the table laughing and blushing. My reaction will probably encourage them to tease me more.

I wish I had some sort of poker face. But nothing will work for my mom--she can read me like an open book no matter how hard I try to be "unreadable".

Sidenote: I am ashamed to admit it...but I might as well. Currently my music selection includes Nick Lachey and Teddy Geiger.

You know--there was something I never realized before. I never knew how much entertainment could come from a single picture of my family. It's kind of embaressing actually. But we all have to learn to laugh at ourselves...right?

Plan for the next few days (just ask if you want to come):
- Rowan arrives tomorrow. ETA: 12pm noon
- Stampeding on Friday.
- David arrives Friday. ETA 2:00pm
- Welcome home party for Chelsea and Lauren at 6:00pm

- Adventure to take Rowan rafting down the river on Saturday.
- Meet Caroline on the grounds, Saturday.
- Sunday morning church.
- Third Day concert sunday evening.
- Closing stampede fireworks. (these are always so romantic)
- Next week Tuesday--leave for the lake for a couple days.
