It's Not Thursday, But I Have A List Anyway

Bob and I have been very busy lately doing all kinds of fun things, so even though it is not Thursday, I thought I would share a list with you today. So here is the Top 10 Fun Things We've Done In The Past Few Weeks:

1. Mailed our wedding invitations. The wedding is 2 months from today!

2. Cooked with our new fun wedding gifts: griddle, food processor, and ice cream maker. We really like the things we put on our registries and we've loved getting gifts and putting them to good use. Thank you, thank you to everyone who has gotten us cool stuff from our registries!

3. Got new furniture. Our couch fiasco aside (that is another post for another day...), we got a beautiful dining room table and are waiting on a couch that will actually fit in our apartment.

4. Went to the Fisher Cats game with David, Deb, and Isabel. We all taught together in Peru and they are now in Zambia, but Deb is originally from NH so we try to see each other when they are home. It was great to catch up with them and introduce them to Bob. It was blazing hot at the game and it was a no-score game until the bottom of the 11th inning, but it ended with a Fisher Cats homerun to win, so it was well worth staying!

5. Had lobster (ok, that part was better for Bob than it was for me) with my family on Friday night at Hedding. Marc bought 10 lobsters and he, Erin, Bob and Mom had a feast. The kids and I enjoyed the corn and the french fries! :)

6. Looked at a house in Hillsboro. We have no intention of buying it, but it was fun to dream for a few minutes. The house had caught our attention when we were visiting Mom and when we saw that it was listed for only $121,000, we decided to check it out. It was a very cool house, but it needed SO MUCH WORK!! I've never seen anything like it, that's for sure. It would have taken us many years and a lot of money to renovate the house and that's not really what we want to get ourselves into right now, but it was still fun to look.

7. Went to the Common Man for afternoon drinks and snacks. We love to go and sit at the bar and read Trivial Pursuit cards - the simple joys in life!

8. Spent the day at Lougee Pond with Bob's family - see my post below.

9. Went fishing at Rye Beach with Bob's brother and nephew.

10. Just spent lots of good time together, which is always the best.
