It's been a good weekend. As you may have heard, we got to see the space shuttle land last night. It was really cool to have that opportunity and to get to watch it with friends. The sonic boom it made was really loud. We have a couple pictures, but we couldn't get too close. Here's the best one: http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=31529619&l=be3de54afd&id=48701321

After watching the shuttle, I went with Heidi and the boys back to their house where Camille and Sarah (some new friends from church) eventually joined us and we stayed up until way too late talking, drinking coffee, and eating french silk pie. Adam went home and got to ride his bike, ate some Taco Bell, took a shower, looked for plane tickets, and went to bed.

Today, we woke up and took Lacy to the pool. It was the last day it was open, so they opened it up to dogs. Lacy is NOT a fan of water. We dragged her in a couple times and both ended up pretty scratched up by her panic. She would only go as far as the first step...and only to retrieve a tennis ball. After that, she looked at us like..."what? you're in the water. you get it." We eventually left because Lacy doesn't like other dogs much lately...especially when she thinks they're a threat to her tennis ball possession.

While at the dog thingy at the pool, we ran into some people from church who told us about Oktoberfest in Tehachapi today. We decided to check it out. At first glance, it wasn't too impressive. There really wasn't much to see, and it was pretty much just eating food, drinking beer, and listening to polka music. But because we probably would've just sat around the house all day, today...we decided to sit around Tehachapi and people watch...for five hours. The time actually flew by, and eventually we were joined up by Sandra and her parents...and Rob and his friend Mike. Lots of craziness ensued and we had a great time. Afterwards we went to Heidi's to eat the leftovers of pie and play Mario Brothers...also a great time.

So tomorrow, we have church and then getting ready for ANDY RICE! We're really excited because Andy is coming to spend the night tomorrow. We haven't seen him in over a year...and we haven't had many visitors, yet, so we're very excited to have him stay with us. So for now, we're gonna call it a night. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
