Happy Monday!! :) I have to work Sunday-Friday this week because my coworker is on vacation. Six day weeks are no fun.
This past weekend was so great! Friday I took Ken to get his windows retinted, as they scratched because they man wouldn't listen to me. I told him that the '06 Mustangs don't have a frame around the window and I was told to have them put a moleskin on to prevent scratching. The man told me it was very rare for it to scratch so he wasn't going to do it. Well, it scratched and he had to redo it. For free.
When I was taking Ken to the tint shop his friend called and invited us to the National Safety Council's annual Soiree. I was hesitant because we had to meet with our pastor Bo and our marriage mentors Regina and Dennis at 5 and the soiree was at 6:30. After much persuasion from Ken I agreed.
Our meeting with Regina, Dennis and Bo went great (it was so nice to see Bo)! We decided to meet with them every other Sunday at their house for dinner. We feel so blessed to have them in our lives!
We got to the soiree (which was extremely formal, I love getting all dolled up) and found there to be an open, unlimited bar (yay for wine!) and our meal was $150/plate! It was free for us though, because Ryan's company sponsored our table. The food was soo great and the entertainment was Eddie Money. I hadn't ever heard of him (my dad was appalled to hear that) but it was so fun dancing to 80's tunes I hadn't heard before and just having a good time!
Saturday was a boring day. Ken's friend Marc was in town so he went to see him. I took Neeko to the dog park with my friend Janice and her dog Howie. They had so much fun. The dog park is Neeko's favorite place to go! After, we met Ken at my place to watch the Husker game. I fell asleep before it ended but I heard I didn't miss much.
I worked Sunday (boo!) and then Ken and I went to Regina and Dennis' house. They made us a very nice dinner and we got going on our marriage counseling/mentoring. Ken and I are already going through a book together and we will start another one with them in two weeks. I ordered them on Amazon. The book is simply titled Preparing for Marriage. Marriage counseling or mentoring is so important. It makes couples talk about things that either they wouldn't care to talk about or simply gives them a different perspective on topics they have already discussed. People take marriage too lightly these days and we definitely want to prepare ourselves for a lifelong commitment. I don't know how couples could skip pre-marital counseling. Plus, we will make a lifelong connection with our mentors!! :)
Grandma and Nate come on Tuesday and I can't wait!!!!
Anyways, this entry is probably full of typos but I must get back to work!
Love,
Ken's future wife
