Birthday Fun

We had so much fun this past weekend, Friday night was the Reel Rock video tour and it was so awesome! I ended up helping out by taking/selling tickets with two other girls while Ben helped Tim set up and I was amazed! We sold over 100 tickets! Sadly, even at $7.oo a piece I still doubt that the OP even broke even with the cost to be able to show the film as part of the tour. (kind of a rip off). But it was still so worth it. Everybody seemed to have fun and the video was awesome! Even if you're not an avid climber there was plenty of humor and impressive stunts in there to keep you entertained. After the film, a few of us went over to the pie to have some pizza and cheesy bread. Mmm! I don't think that night could have gotten any better!

Ben had to work Saturday but Saturday night we had a dinner party where we made some stroganof and peach pie. Our guests kinda all bailed so we only had Brit over to eat and James came over to hang out later and watch a movie at just about the time Brit was getting ready to leave but let's just say it was still a blast! I love having people over for dinner! I can't wait until I can have enough couples to come for a multi-course semi-fancy meal all together, but until then, stroganof and pie will make me plenty happy.

Sunday we cleaned, played some disc golf with J-J, went to the library so Ben could meet with his group about all the projects they have due soon, and then we celebrated Mary's birthday which was actually Saturday. We went out to Olive Garden with the fam, gave her presents (I had crocheted a super cute flower headband for her and drawn a crazy card). and then we went back to their house for some cake and ice cream. It was so much fun to be around the family! It's crazy how much I start to miss my in-laws when I haven't seen them in a week. The night got cut short by Ben's need for sleep before a really rough day of school but it was still a very good weekend that we made the very most of!
