So when Frank and I were in premarital counseling, our pastor imparted a ton of wisdom on us. I’m sure he’d be happy to know that it didn’t go to waste. He told us that he and his wife go through seasons in their marriage. He mentioned that he had just been through a particularly difficult season and he was excited to see what was in store for them.

I noticed that Frank and I also go through seasons, even though we are fairly new to the married game. Right now we are in a particularly contented season of our marriage. Ahh… ::Sigh:: It feels really nice.

This weekend was Frank’s birthday, so we had a busy one. First, Friday, we celebrated Erik’s birthday at Dor and Erik’s beautiful new coach house! It’s absolutely stunning and very new. I love the things she’s done with it so far, even though she doesn’t even live there yet. (technically 😉 )

Saturday I spent A LOT of time with Kate. I say that because it took us 1 1/2 hours to get to a mall 4 miles from my house. And once we were on the road, there was no way to get off because the next exit was the exit to the mall. It was nuts.

Saturday night, we went to Famous Dave’s for Frank’s birthday dinner with a bunch of people and then we went out to Cubby Bear North to see Mike & Joe–very fun! We stayed out very late (way past our bed times!) and danced and sang and everything. GOOD STUFF!!!

Sunday we went to the National Restaurant show–very fun! We ate a ton and came home and napped… ahhh!

MY PEDOMETER…

This brings me to my nifty pedometer. I found that it is great to see how far I’ve walked and all that, but what is even cooler is that if I shake it, it moves a step. That’s MUCH easier than walking all those steps.

So far, I walked 10,564,392,456 steps. I rock.
