Week In the Life ~ Highlights!

Jen Eff and the Snake Beard will live on in infamy. FOREVER.
(special thanks to Sam Maksoud for making all that laughter possible. Seriously, we laughed for a solid ten minutes. My face hurt afterwards.)

Thank you to everyone who made my friend John feel welcome as well!!! He had a great time and can't wait to come back.

In other news, I believe everyone should have the following experience at least once:

On a warm-ish morning, right as the sun is rising, walk down to Alisandria and walk to the edge of the pond (not the lake, but the pond on the edge of Alisandria behind the statehouse.) You will see one of the most beautiful, magical things I've ever seen: the mist on the pond swirling and dancing and rising to greet the sun as the sun begins to make light across the treetops. Seriously, go check it out. It's gorgeous.

Love you all!!!!

I had a great time this week, this is definitely one of the most enjoyable events I have been to. In no particular order:

-seeing friends for the first time in months and catching up was great.
-passing out at noon on Wednesday and waking up 4 hours later, covered in facepaint and popcorn.
-main mod was an absolute blast! The cave-in mechanic was very well executed and worked wonderfully to keep the mod from becoming a disorganized scrum.

I can't wait to see you all in a few weeks for the next event!

Was good to see everyone again.Thank you all for being so welcoming to my little brother, he had a great time. Thanks also to all our friends being so supportive and kind to Kristen and I with all things about our lives. Finally thank you to Marie for making one of the best damn feasts I've ever had, most certainly the best desert at a feast. I cannot say exactly when I will you all again but I most certainly will attempt to make the next week in the life event.
