a great weekend...

we had a really nice weekend... on friday, thomas was off work and we went to Orlando to go to the temple with my cousin. we got there about 5 minutes before it was supposed to start. i slipped in as the doors were closing and told them that thomas was coming. they waited about a minute and then started anyway. thomas didn't make it in. he sat in the lobby during the service. but then we went to olive garden for lunch and headed back home. it was really great to be there with Michael. on saturday, we had michael's girlfriend and her family over to meet michael's grandparents. we had a big bbq and they went swimming. it was fun to get to know all of them. they are really nice people. then sunday was a pretty cool day, too. michael's grandparents left right after church, and then we had a family dinner and derek, a guy who just moved here from orem, utah, came over to visit. he is going back to utah this weekend and was rubbing it in that he was going to eat on gandolfo's on saturday... jerk! just kidding! the weekend was just nice and relaxing. much unlike next weekend, when we will be moving and i will be doing it pretty much by myself! my aunt volunteered to watch hannah so that i don't have to worry about her, too, while i am moving everything up and down stairs. should be a blast! this week is just going to be getting ready for this weekend. i need to get some boxes and bags and start packing up everything from our room... it's kind of hard, though because you never know what you will need.. i hate moving!
