4 Things

This weekend has been SO much fun! On Friday night, I got to try a fun game called Bunco. My friend Ronnie has been playing for a couple years in AZ, and she said she always has so much fun. So when my friend Molly decided to start a Bunco group here in San Diego, I signed up right away. It seemed a little silly, but wow, who could have guessed that throwing dice with a bunch of other girls could be SO much fun? I even won the prize for the most Buncos. I can't wait til next month's game night!!!
On Saturday, I spent the day scrapbooking photos from my honeymoon with some other newlywed friends of mine. I got a lot accomplished, and I had a great time catching up with the girls. :)
Today was Mike and my "date" day. We decided to go to the Wild Animal Park. It was so much fun! It was really nice when we first got there, and we got to see the male lion and lots of other fun animals. We also rode the new Journey to Africa tour, where we got to see the animals really getting active before the rain rolled in. The giraffes were very friendly, and all the antelope were beautiful. We even heard the lion working on his roar on our way back to the Simba Station! The rain started coming down pretty hard by the time we got off the tour, so we headed out of the park. We decided to stop at the Macaroni Grill for dinner on our way home, and when we got back we were so tired and full, we laid on the couch and watched "Rescue Dawn." We both really liked it.

Now, without any further to-do....my wonderful friend Clara wanted me to do this, so I will share 4 things about myself with you. I KNOW you can hardly wait to read them!!! :)

I am learning how to reply as I go...so hopefully this shows up! Bunko was a Blast. I am glad it is at my house next month so I dont have to drive as far :) It was great scrapbooking with you on Saturday too. I missed you.

Yay for Bunco! :) I realized that Mike's family will be here over the next Bunco weekend, so I'll have to play it by ear to see if I can get away without being rude. I'm definitely going to try as hard as I can to be there next month. It's SO fun! :)
