The weekend started out on a great note. My roommates and I organized a group date starting at 'Blastoff' in IF where we were to engage in a friendly game of phaser-tag. This is quite similar to paint balling, but indoor and with bouncy balls. This was definitely something to get the adrenaline pumping and started the night off on a great note. Then we went on to Red Robin to eat dinner.
My date and I were talking about how many speckled lemonades we had consumed in one sitting before. He had me beat with 8 while the most I had done was 4. So I decided to challenge myself and he definitely encouraged it. I was drinking the strawberry lemonades so fast that our waiter decided it would be better to start bringing me two at a time. Soon I had more drinks on the table than I could handle. I got six down and started feeling a bit funny. Everyone at the table was determined to pressure me into doing another, but I doubt I would be alive today if I had finished number seven. Once we were done with dinner, the waiter informed me how many calories were in a single cup of the sweet beverage. We did the math and were disgusted at the fact that I drank 2,100 calories in one sitting. I also decided that it's a very good things that I don't drink alcohol. Or I would probably be wasted all the time.
The next morning I went to Alpine for breakfast with council. We found an empty cupboard and decided it would be a good idea to fit three of us grown college students in it. Never thought I would do that, maybe as a little child but never as a grown woman with two others as well. Don't worry, we documented with pictures :)
Then on Sunday we had the pleasure of spending 5 hours at church. Sacrament meeting started at 1:50 as usual so naturally church went until 4:50. Since the ward scheduled a fireside to start at 6 they arranged to have dinner in between. I loved how we talked about gratitude all day. It was a good reminder for me and was just what I needed to hear. I love when that happens!
And now I am home and loving spending time with my family!!
Wow that does sound like a great weekend! And may I say you are a champ for drinking all that lemonade! I know if I could drink that much liquid I would spend the rest of the night in the "oval office" haha. I hope you have a fantastic Thanksgiving in Spokane with your family. :)
