Weekend Update

Well, I missed hanging out with Suzie and Tasha while they were in town this weekend, but that was because my time had already been booked. (Darn busy summer schedules!) I went to Erin's wedding on Friday evening with Laurie - it was so beautiful! It was held at the Columbia Gorge Hotel and the ceremony and cocktail hour took place on a cliff overlooking the river. Erin was a gorgeous bride and she looked stunning in her dress. (whistle, whistle) It was fun to see Peter and Jessica there, and also to watch all the action on the dance floor during the reception. hee hee

On Saturday I helped out with the youth group rummage sale that was held at our church. The teens made about $1,000! There was quite a collection of junk there though, and it wasn't so fun cleaning up afterwards. During the last hour of the sale, it was declared that everything was free in the hopes that people would start clearing out the merchandise. It worked pretty well - several people walked out with armloads of full bags and boxes. David scored a couple of tools and I got a CD called Ambiance (spa-style relaxing tunes.)

David is gone again. (This is the reoccurring theme of my summer.) He and the youth group are in Astoria this week. They are building a prayer garden at the church where his dad works during the day and seeing all the sights of the city in the evenings. I am joining them on Thursday night when they are going camping at Saddle Mountain. We are supposed to be hiking to the summit on Friday. We'll see who can make it to the top! =)
