| The best weekend ever | Entry #596348 |
I know it's late in coming, and I apologize, but things have been crazy lately. The weekend of July 4th was the best weekend I have had in a long time!!
Crys came down to visit for a nice length of time, from Thursday afternoon to Sunday morning. It was funny when I picked her up from the airport, because she had forgotten a whole extra day we'd be spending together 
I introduced her to the game Rock Band for my Wii, and she loved it!! I can't wait until we are living together so we can play it more often together, especially with invited friends over to have the whole band play.
Friday, the 4th itself, was great too! We went over to the mall and had Arby's (one of our favorite places to eat) and then to the puppy store. There was this really really cute goldendoodle (golden retriever / poodle mix) puppy. She was only 10 months old, and had a lot of energy!! Crys and I fell in love with her since the moment we saw her, and we both wanted to take her home with us. On the way back, we stopped at our river, and reminisced and compared the scenery to the past times we were there. At first that night we weren't sure if the fireworks would be showing, because of some light showers, but fortunately they stopped and allowed the display to go on. It was amazing, and it felt sooooo good to watch them with the love of my life 
Mom's party was the next day, but not until the afternoon. So first, Crys and I went over to my brother and his girlfriend's place, and played with their dogs. They have a golden retriever, Ben, a Pembroke Welsh Corgi, Rosie, and a corgi/pomeranian mix, Yorrick. I couldn't tell who Crys wanted to cuddle more!! I have to say I'm a little jealous of Ben, because she was giving him a lot of attention, and more hugs than me LOL
The party was great too, as all my family events are. Most of the family was there, out on mom's deck, and there was plenty of food and drink to go around. It was wonderful to have Crys be a part of that.
As always, Sunday morning was hard because of Crys leaving. The ride to the airport to drop her off was very quiet, I think in part because we were tired. Still, it was a nice ending to a wonderful weekend altogether. |
