Man! The second I take time off everything falls behind. Ah well at least homework is getting done before the due date-even if it isn't when it normally gets done. The past weekend was so much fun!
We rolled into town in just enough time to get seated at the play before the overture. I've seen this show, Les Mis, who knows how many times so you'd think I'd be use to it. Nope! They even thru a curve at me in Thursday's performance. Javert was played by a black man. Oh! It was beautiful! The part was written for a black man and he did so amazingly well. The best Javert I have ever seen!
We had a chance to go boating on Friday-the weather was great and the lake was fine-until 'yellow boat' ruined it. It didn't matter too much because there was only 3 of us out there so we all got to do what we wanted for as long as we wanted and then we went home. It was so nice.
Then on Saturday we arose dark and early at the 4:30 am hour to drive up and help with the aide station my family's church is in charge of. Every October the St. George Marathon rolls around and every October my family's church volunteers to work the 2nd aid station, so since we were down we thought why not? Well not only was it dark but it started to rain as we got up the mountain. So there we were setting up tables and filling cups by flashlight in the rain. My husband, Tyler forgot tennis shoes and a coat so he was working in flip-flops and a sweatshirt. But it was so worth it! When I lived at home with my family I always aided the station and never really liked it-I mean it was service and I felt good but I never really enjoyed doing it. This time was different. It was one of those things where I was glad I did it and I'm glad I don't have to do it again.
