We can’t go because we will be at a wedding, but I got this e-mail from the Downtown Raleigh Alliance. Sounds interesting, and free beer case and a $50 gift certificate is nice if you win the volunteer referral program 🙂

9:00 am we went to Gary’s parents’ house for breakfast. Check out the cute eggs his mom made (I put the faces on them) . . . so here is the easter story for the day . . .

look how happy we all are . . . hi nice to meet you!

what happened?? I think I have been eaten!

I’ll save you! . . . oh no! What is that!?

AAAAAAACK!

be afraid . . . very afraid

😀

and then we went to my parents’ house where we had some cute easter bowls of goodies

Happy Easter Everyone!

(and yes, I know I have a slighty weird sense of humour 😛 )

So I had a 15% off card for Hot Topic so when my mom and I went to the mall, I got these really cute shoes 😀

So here are some pictures from the Park from last sunday:
the first and last ones are my fave 😀

this shot is of the slide

and this is the underside of the slide

I almost forgot!  I was cleaning out the fish tank last Friday and I put my fish Maximus in a small clear container w/o a lid.  I knew he liked to jump, but he usually only does that when he sees food over his head . . . well I guess he was tired of being stuck in the small container and he wiggled his little butt and jumped out of the cup!

I was kinda scared cause he jumped out of the cup onto the desk on some papers but then assuming he tried to jump back into the water ended up jumping off the desk onto the floor.  Luckily I was there when he jumped out of the cup or i might have stepped on him and then wondered why my fish wasn’t in the container.

I called my co-worker Tim over because I was afraid of squashing the fish or slicing him if I tried to use paper to scoop him up.  So Tim was trying to pick my fish up off the ground, but since fish are small and slimy  and he couldn’t get him.  Steve came over and somehow was able to get Maximus without squishing him in time and throw him back into the water.

SO, next time I’ll get a lid for my fish container when I’m cleaning out the tank.  Aside from looking scared stiff, he wa back to his normal self within a few minutes and he had a relaxing weekend swimming around in his warm cozy surroundings.

LOL, stupid fish 😛

Let’s see . . . Gary is in Denver again and I let him take my laptop since his locks up, so no photos to post til he comes back.

I don’t usually go into details on everything that goes on in our lives, but since I haven’t been blogging for a while, and no new pictures til my laptop returns home, I thought I’d post SOMEthing. Though dinners out with friends isn’t exciting blogging material and we do it so often, but here is a recap of last week:

Gary and I had dinner with my parents on Monday, Tuesday we met our friends Hughie and Virginia at Olive Garden, Wednesday was Chili’s with our friends Clay and Miranda, and then Friday we had Ethiopian food at Abyssinia with my friend Patricia. (note: go to Abyssinia if you don’t have to be somewhere soon or are super hungry . . they have great food, but service tends to be really slow)

My friend Sam is going to Hawaii for YWAM for two years (leaving today actually), so Adrienne and I went to her going away party on Sunday and then a bunch of us went to Starbucks for coffee. Afterwards, Adrienne, Jason, Zack, and I went to see Blades of Glory which had some funny parts, though not one of Will Farrell‘s best movies, and then we went shooting at Jaycee park.

This week Patricia and I are going to get massages which we both really really need and I don’t have to work on Friday (wohoo!). I think Gary and I are meeting a bunch of people for lunch and then I am going dancing (Latin night!) at Spice Street with Patricia and my parent’s anniversary is this week 🙂

So every time I drive/walk by this in downtown Raleigh I think I should bring my camera by and take a picture, but then I forget until the next time I see it.

Anyway, you can send your letters with the the US Postal Service‘s mail box and you can check out how ‘the jedi forces unite’ on the website: http://www.usps.com/

I know I’ll prolly forget again so I just Google-ed a photo 😛
so I didn’t take this picture, but found it here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/gozubuyuk/436667813/

So I suppose you could call it kitty sitting . . . Gary and I had our friend’s cat Abby over at the house for a couple of hours today . . . um, she looks cute -hehe

We just got back from our friends Chad and Ashley’s wedding and they are so cute together. We’re really happy for them and can’t wait to see them when they get back from their honeymoon in Hawaii!

P.S.  We were guests, so I didn’t get a lot of pictures
