weekend love.

Its Monday. Blah. Another week of working and studying that darn physics.
But I'm entering it refreshed, thanks to a wonderful weekend.

On friday we had a movie marathon that we have been meaning to do for a while...five redboxes...a chick flick, action, drama, comedy...and one more drama :) we watched one while cuddling in bed, then hung out together on our comfy red couch while eating popcorn and chilli frito pie.

Saturday we had a good sleep in and had a heart to heart over coffee. We then enjoyed a buy one get one free culvers frozen custard sundae, after some hard core study at the kitchen table (Noah on his Fundamentals of Engineering Exam, and me for my Graduate School entrance exam...why is advancing yourself so darn hard sometimes?!?!).

Sunday we had a date at the original pancake house where we enjoyed some more conversation over some ridiculously good food (after an hour wait to get seated!!). After, we peeked through the sparkles at the Tiffany & Co that was next door, and talked about how many hungry children in Africa we could feed with just one of those rings. (so glad we think alike like that, like values are important in marriage peeps!)

Then we came home and made pumpkin whoopie pies for a sunday night game night with a few other married couples.
Noah made the icing while I made the batter. We tend to do everything together.

Some of the things we talked about this weekend involved fears (about study, the future), kiddos (when do we want them? who will stay home? where should we live?), giggles about how much we would love a housekeeper to do that darn laundry (maybe some day...), when we will go overseas (for missions & to enjoy the wonderful food in Italy) and much more. I love talking about dreams with hubs. We talked about how this is IT - we are living our lives now, and aren't getting any younger. We talked about how we needed to live our lives to the fullest. We are in our prime!

We both don't know what the future holds, but we know that as we continue to trust in the Lord and his goodness, it will be good. Maybe not easy and free of pain & struggles, but good (and hopefully a trip to Italy, healthy babies, our own house, careers that contribute to society and relationships with eachother and Jesus that inspire...to name just a few!!).
