Fun Weekend!

Grand Rapids, MI | This weekend was awesome! On Friday night, we hung out with friends and went and saw ‘Apocalypto’ the new Mel Gibson movie. We really enjoyed the movie even though it was a wee bit graphic to say the least. On Saturday, we slept in which we rarely do so it felt so great! Ben was a sweet husband and made an awesome breakfast … huge omelets … yummy! We relaxed a bit and then made fantastic Christmas cookies from scratch! Oh yes, we got the ol’ roller out and lots of flour and covered ourselves in it! They turned out surprisingly good so that was exciting for us! We coated them in an amazing frosting and fun Holiday sprinkles! Later on in the day we headed downtown with some friends, Kris & Jessica, to check out a few art shops and galleries that have some new work. After that we headed home and then got ready for our night on the town! Haha! My family has an annual Christmas party for their employees and every year we get the wonderful opportunity to attend. We can’t pass up free food & amazing entertainment! Below are some fun pics that we took with our point and shoot camera! We have a crazy family – and I love it! We stayed out till 3am on Saturday night hanging out with all the cousins so it was a little bit of a late night for us … ok, a really late night for us! On Sunday, we had yet another relaxing day … we did some Christmas shopping and then went to church at Mars Hill at night (where we got to see Rob Bell’s new NOOMA video, you should check these films out if you haven’t, they are awesome). Overall, it was a much needed relaxing weekend! Enjoy a few of the crazy pics!
