The Weekend...

Wow. It was weird having Blake out of town Thurs, Fri and half of Sat, but I can't complain...I got a whole lot done. Thursday night I got a bunch of homework done- which really never happens...but it was a tiny miracle. Friday night I hung out with Kaylo, Diana, and Paige and that was a blast. We went to Aloha Kitchen (SO YUMMY- Hawaiian) for dinner and then went to Kaylo's to play Catan. I love playing- it is just so relaxing. Check how HARD O looks in his outfit!!
So, Saturday when Blake got home from their little Awake & Alert mini Cali tour, it was just a whirlwind day. We drove all over the valley to get Awake & Alert situated for the SoCo music festival at Tempe Market Place. The show ended up being a ton of fun- I guess A&A sold more merch than all of the other BIG bands combined! Isn't that great! As always...being the merch lady! Sunday felt like a long day, but really good. I decided to get back into singing with our church choir. I've really missed singing- my poor little alto voice has been rusty. I can't even sing in the shower since Blake's not even awake when I go to work- boo hoo. But one cool thing is that Blake and I got our plane tickets to Colorado for Christmas! We are so excited to go!!! We'll be there Dec 20-27! Back in time for our nephew's 4th birthday!
So, this morning I witnessed a miracle...in two days my new Snow Peas grew from this....

To THIS!!! Isn't that amazing!


It's a confirmation that I REALLY don't kill everything! Neato. However I did notice that the bamboo I had in my house that I cleaned out the jar a week ago- yeah I realized I never put water back in it- what a dummy.

omg. i thought that those 'peas' signs said 'please'. like you were asking politely for them to grow. the weird thing is i didn't seond guess it, i just thought 'mandy's always so nice.'
