Long Weekend!


It's unbelievable - term 2 is already halfway over. This last week has been great, Dave's Dad is in China and we were able to borrow his car. It's a massive four wheel drive, smooth... I feel so spoiled driving to work and back.  It's going to be weird going back to the train and bus.

Friday night Dave had work.  However, I was at home around 10:30, messing around on the computer (definitely *not* streaming a Gossip Girl episode, haha) and in walks Dave! Turns out the bar wasn't busy and he finished early. We drank a nice bottle of wine and watched "35 Up". Nice night.  Saturday night was Dan and Cara's engagement party.  We were at JP and Kerry's engagement party a couple of weeks ago, they were so different.  JP and Kerry had hors d'oeuvres being passed around, a band playing, the champagne was flowing, people were pretty dressed up, it was lovely.  Dan and Cara's was a backyard celebration, with tons of food, courtesy of the Mums, lots of beer (particularly EMU) in coolers, picnic tables...Both parties were great, and in both cases family and friends were getting together to celebrate such a special occasion.

Pretty chill day today - Talked to Dad on the phone, then Dave and I went to Bilby's for some delicious burgers. Hung out for awhile while Mrs. Henry had a practice, then Dave and I got picnic stuff for dinner and watched some movies. The best thing is that unlike a normal weekend, there's an extra day tomorrow! Will probably spend it marking, but at least I can do it in my JAMS.
