A Lovely Weekend

As I mentioned yesterday I've been looking forward to this weekend.  The chance to see good friends.  To celebrate a dear friend's baby shower.  Greg helped Dad and Mike by bringing the ice machine from Wilmington to Ferguson's.  Found out that my brother Mike and my nephew Tripp just a race!  Seeing my Dad in such a frisky mood is contagious.  The rest of the weekend has been time with my in-laws.  Listening to my father-in-law play a bluesy tune on the guitar.  A nice family walk with the dogs.   We watched Alice in Wonderland  which was vividly portrayed with fantastic characters and costumes.  I felt it lacked the substance of plot that I was craving.  Next we had a delicious family dinner with even more family over for dessert and coffee.

Now we're back in Wilmington (just walked through the door).  I really enjoyed this weekend obviously.  I feel I've been able to experience it in such another level because of my blog.  I've found I'm much more observant and contemplative about what I observe.  For instance, in each segment of my journey from Wilmington, to St. Pauls, to Cary I was able to not only enjoy myself but appreciate/observe the disposition of all my friends and family around me.

I plan to explain this more thoroughly tomorrow.  It's almost 12am and my brain is telling me it is time to go to sleep!
