This past weekend was awesome! We put aside wedding planning for a weekend and just had fun. It was so relaxing and very much needed. Friday night we had tickets to go see the Broadway musical, Wicked. It tells the story of how the good witch Glinda and the wicked witch of the West met in witch school and how they became friends. It gives one a different perspective on the Wizard of Oz. It was quite the event. We had such a great group with us. We went out to dinner and had amazing steaks (some of which, were still alive) and then headed off to the show. I found out earlier that week that Blake had never seen a musical before in his life. Sad story, but that was about to change. I was a little nervous he might not enjoy as much as I expected, but I was so wrong. He loved it! I'm so glad we can now add musicals to our list of things we do together without wanting to stab our eyes out. Believe me, there have been some things we don't particularly enjoy doing with each other. (For instance, wedding planning haha). Saturday was pretty chill. Literally, we watched three movies and just talked all day. It was probably one of the best days I've had in a while. Blake let me fall asleep on his lap while he did homework. I can't recall a better nap. We went out with some friends that night for my friend's husband's birthday and played cards, which of course Blake and I dominated at. Don't play games with us. It's not pretty. And you will lose.
Sunday we attended church together, which is one of my most favorite things to do with him. He is so ridiculously handsome in his shirt and tie. Cool story, Danny White, ex-NFL quarterback, attends the same church as me, and he said he would help Blake get on to ASU's football team if he wanted it. Blake has been training for quite some time, so he's physically ready, but it's always nice to have an in like that to put in a good word. I thought that was so cool! He said some amazingly nice things about Blake and his ability to be great in that career path. I might be more excited than Blake to have him play again. It's kind of incredible to see someone you love doing something they love and makes them happy.
All in all, I couldn't have asked for a better weekend. I can't wait to get this wedding planning behind us so we can spend most weekends that way in our OWN home. Now it's back to the grind. T-minus 38 hours left in my work week. TONS of wedding plans to take care of this week. So many things to do and so little time to do it in, but it was so worth the sacrifice to have a weekend like that. This weekend is bridal shower weekend so that'll be a blast too! Yay for weekends that don't suck! haha
