Last Friday night, five of us friends got together to celebrate Shane's birthday as well as mine. Going to Alpine Bowling Lanes was the first thing to do on our list! When we got there they told us that our reserved lane for 7:30 wasn't working and that we would have to wait until about 8:30. That was a bit annoying for us since we were wanting to go for supper afterwards and that would've been a VERY late supper! Thankfully while we were all thinking about what to do they told us that our lane was now working. We didn't have to pay until after just in case the lane stopped working again. The shoes ........ there was a father/daughter bowling event going on so there were no shoes in the range from size 9-12 (the guys were VERY uncomfortable) and I had to wear a size too big since they had no size 5's! We were in the 8th frame and I was up ....... STOPPED working!!! The guys working there told us that the people beside us would be done in about 15 minutes and that we could come and get some free drinks while we waited. So we all got HUGE drinks and waited oh so paitiently.


We tried setting them up as bowling pins!
Jared showing off his size 12 shoes!!! (he stuffed them with kleenex)
The time had finally come!!! We got our right shoe sizes and a new lane! We were all ready for our second game. As we were about to start they brought us 2 free baskets of popcorn! They felt really bad for all the problems we had to face! They even gave us a discount on our bowling. We eventually got started and had no more problems!!



Has he got the moves or what!!!!

They even took me out to the cafe for lunch! They are such awesome people to work with!

Here are my lovely balloons I received!
Kelsey even came to my workplace in the afternoon and brought me some flowers! What an awesome friend!
In the evening Jared took me out to celebrate! We went to the IMAX to see "Dinosaurs". To be honest I was a little scared, lol. I closed my eyes when the T-Rex came on. It seemed so close I thought it was going to chop my head off!!!! None the less, we had a great time!

Night out with the girls!
Yesturday evening we took Raquel out for her stagette! It's hard to believe she is getting married in just exactly ONE more week! I am so excited to be able to share that special day with her and Darcy!
We started off our evening by making her go on a little treasure hunt. Each treasure she found had another clue as well as a few small gifts that she could use in her new home! We made it to Winnipeg just in time to make our 7:30 reservation at "Mona Lisa". It's a nice place despite the fact that you wait FOREVER to get your order taken as well as your food. I mean they had it written in the menu that their food takes awhile to prepare since they make it fresh or something. But still, the wait was a bit ridiculous. None the less, we enjoyed our almost 2 hour supper!

Our bowling reservations were for 9 but we only made it to the lanes by 9:30 because of our "long" supper. We had to wait 20 minutes in order to get in since we had not been on time for our reservations. We eventually laced up our bowling shoes and were ready to go! But wait ..... the evening couldn't go on without a bit more waiting involved. It took them FOREVER to put our names into the system so that we could start. They had accused Lisa of not paying so they hadn't put them up yet. So we started our game FINALLY! Well wouldn't you know...... our pins started to have issues in the middle of the game and then our screen froze. I love it how many times we had little issues here and there, it made for an eventful evening!


We headed to Timmy's afterwards since we didn't make it on time for the ice-cream place we wanted to go to. That's okay though since Raquel loves Timmy's! We then all headed home and Raquel went to uncover her last clue at their soon to be home.
It was a lot of fun getting to hang out with just girls! Raquel I wish you all the best as you finish up planning in your one week of single life left! I can't wait until April.21!!!!!!!!

Mission Weekend and more .....
Last weekend our college and career group headed to Winnipeg for a mission / fun weekend. Friday night we all checked into the hotel and then spent the evening soaking in the hot tub and playing games! The guys stayed up until around 3:30 in the morning playing Monopoly! Us girls were LONG in bed by then!

The next morning we headed off to Teen Challenge to serve brunch to a group of around 20 guys. We made scrambled eggs, breakfast sausage, hashbrowns and also served cinnamon buns and muffins that we had made previously. They really enjoyed it!


After eating was done we presented them with a short program. Cody lead some praise and worship, Paul shared his testimony as well as a devotional and then Cody and Adam finshed off with a special number of their own which the guys all really enjoyed! It was so encouraging watching and being with these guys, and just hearing their story and seeing how much these guys have actually changed the way they live and how excited some of them are about Jesus!
We then headed off to Andrew and Amy's house which is on Burrows. They are friends of Kevin and Becky's from Bible school. They are church planters from our conference. We got together in groups of around 4, including some of their youth which was awesome and started cleaning. We cleaned up garbage on a few blocks surrounding and including Burrows. There was soooo much garbage everywhere. It was so nice to look back and see that we were actually making a difference. You can help others in so many different ways!

In the evening we all went to the Golf Dome and went mini golfing! I probably played my WORST game ever! I went off the green about 4 times for sure! The guys played Monopoly again until about 3 in the morning! Kelsey and I stayed up that late as well and we were not even playing! We weren't even that tired ... not sure why... that is pretty late!

The next morning a few of us went to church in Winnipeg. We could pick anywheres we wanted to go so we decided to go to Kelsey's sisters church near Corydon.
........ and that ended our mission weekend!
FUNDUE NIGHT!
Sunday Jared and I went to Lindsay and Jared's in Steinbach, along with Cody and Michael and had a bit of a farewell for Cody before he left for his trip. Cranium was pulled out and a lot of fun was had!

Lindsay had gotten a fondue set so she made us a chocolate fondue with fruit!
Pretty much right away when the fruit was hauled out, there were 6 eager hands with sharp little forks ready to devour! Everyone was trying to steal everyone else's fruit. It was CRAZY! But oh so delicious! Michael ended up with his hand bleeding a bit as well as a big chunk of fruit being flown into his coffee. All in all a great evening it was!
You can never hang out with cousins too often!
