My friend, Elizabeth, came for a visit this past week. We had lots of fun together! We had made a "to-do list" together previous to her coming and it helped us complete most of the things we wanted to get done while she was here. Last year we had made a list of 100 things to do which ended up being WAAAY too ambitious. This year we had 30 things on our "to-do" list and we got about 26 of them done, which is pretty good!
Here are some of the things we did...
1. Watch the 3rd season of Robin Hood (yes, I got her addicted to the show)
2. Went to Shady Maple for lunch (a lot of the week centered around food!)
3. Played tennis (I need help with my hand-eye coordination apparently)
4. Went to Rita's
5. Went bowling
6. Played games with the family (Dutch Blitz, Swap, Scattegories)
7. Went shopping (South Mall, Wal-Mart, Goodwill, Kohls...very successful shopping day!)
8. Went for a walk (we walked to Giant which is near my house to pick up some ingredients for a treat we were making and to get more candy)
9. Watched the premiere episode for the final season of Monk
10. Decorated my chalkboard outside my room (we had a Robin Hood theme going)
11. Watched Enchanted
12. Watched a few episodes of "Wipeout" on Youtube (cool show!)
13. Ate LOTS of candy (Twizzlers, Laffy Taffy, jellybeans, skittles, Mike & Ikes, M&Ms, 100 grand bars, chocolate...yeah, that would be a lot!)
14. Went to Panera Bread for lunch
15. Made frozen hot chocolate (the name intrigued us so we had to give it a try...yum!)
16. Went to Dunkin Donuts
17. Went canoeing as a family
18. Had a picnic lunch
19. Watched Dad and Andy play softball with guys from church
20. Swung on the swings (rather squeaky swings!)
21. Watched the Duggars (18 kids and Counting)
22. Stayed up late talking each night
23. Painted our toenails
24. Took TONS of pictures
25. Got hooked on "Stumble Upon" from Mozilla Firefox (thanks to Elizabeth! :))
26. Went to Bob Evans
27. "Stalked" Andy at Kalmbach Park (where he works)
28. Played Mad-Libs (with a lot of LOL out loud :))
I feel like I am missing some things...which I am sure I am...but that's pretty much what happened this past week! Lots of fun, lots of sugar, lots of laughter!!
Before she left, Elizabeth and I worked on creating a desktop background, and so now we both have the same background on our laptops. :)
