This weekend we sacrificed the amusement park for some sanity.  At least we weren’t talking it up to the kids, since that would have led to some disappointment.  We needed some time to recoup and recover, since the rest of the weekend was busy.

We had a very small get together Friday evening for Brian’s birthday.  We drank several bottles of good wine. 🙂  I got him a nice heavy wine decanter and a picture of the kids.

On Saturday night was the wedding and reception.  A good time was had by all. It was a nice small gathering at a restaurant they rented out and they had a DJ after dinner.  I hadn’t danced in forever, and that was so much fun.  I love dancing!

On Sunday I took pics of our friends.  I will get them up on my photography site today, but I didn’t have a chance to get them all edited.  My computer was driving me batty again.  I could have gotten them done if it wouldn’t have taken so long to “think”. 

Hopefully this week will be an easier one, but I doubt it.  We have swimming tonight, I am hosting our neighborhood bunco group tomorrow night (with not enough people – I just want to cancel!), Wednesday Brian has poker (not at our house this time – thank you!!), and we might have my parents over this weekend (which will be low key – so not a big production) where we will hopefully go to the Renaissance Festival before it closes down.  I have to finish editing the pictures for my friends and burn some CD’s for sessions I have done.  I promised a Mei Tai for my friend, Bek, for her new nephew that she is head over heels in love.  Halloween is coming, so that means I need to make the princess her Fairy Princess costume (which I need to get to the Ren Fest to buy her some wings). *sigh*  No rest for the wicked.

I’ll just look at this and sense the peace and calmness wash over me – I love our little lake.
