Valentine's Day Weekend


This weekend was awesome! I couldn't have imagined it going any better than it actually did. Friday was the last day of classes for the week, which is always exciting because I know I get to relax for two days. I went out to the barn to feed the horses that afternoon and if you can believe it all of them were like perfect little angels. So I got back into Greenville and Rach and I decided to go to O'Charley's as our Valentine's Day dinner (we were watching Molly, Lily, and Silas Saturday night). This worked out perfectly because we were able to walk right into the restaurant, get a table for two, and have a nice sit-down meal together without all the hustle and bustle of Valentine's Day reservations and all that good stuff. After supper we went over to Rachel's house and watched Madea's Family Reunion (amazing movie) and relaxed. Rachel gave me my Valentine's Day presents ( a red polo shirt, a Best Buy gift card, Reese cups, and homemade pumpkin bread, not to mention a super creative Valentine's Day card). I was really excited about all of this and it made my day!
Saturday arrived and it was officially Valentine's Day. A group of us planned to go to the annual Purple vs. Gold Scrimmage, where the ECU baseball team scrimmages before the home opener ( I know, to most of you this may not sound like the Valentine's Day event that just knocks your socks off but, I like baseball and Rach does too so we went). The group consisted of, Me, Rachel, Mama, Daddy, Josh, Morgan, Jordan, and Beth. We watched the game and then ventured off on our separate adventures. Rach and I went back to my apartment for a few minutes before we had to leave so I gave her the white sapphire necklace I had gotten her for this special occassion (she loved it). After that we went over to the Woolard household where we were watching Silas, Molly, and Lily. Lindsey, Amanda, Chris W., and Chris A. had us a pizza and some Coldstone cupcakes for supper! They went to see Fireproof and we played with the kids until they got back. Those three children are undoubtedly the cutest kids ever and Rachel and I had a blast playing and watching Bambi with them. When we left the Woolard's we went home and I gave Rachel "Father of the Bride"and we watched that, it was really good and it capped off a great day.
We all went to church on Sunday morning and then to lunch at Mazatlan. I had to work so I went out to the barn afterward. When I got back into Greenville I went over Rach's house she made baked spaghetti for supper (she's quite the cook even though she is to modest to admit it). We talked for a while then Aaron, Rach, and I came back to my apartment where Josh, Tim, and Byron were playing video games. We hung out and cracked jokes for a while before we all got tired and had to migrate to our individual homes and go to sleep.
It was a great weekend and I would like to say thanks to all of those involved, you guys and girls are amazing!
