this weekend was spent mostly outside, being young again. didn't take a ton of photos, which is sometimes good - both for lack of evidence, and in truly enjoying the moment.
saturday: woke up late (with a bit of a migraine hangover), and spent the day outside - some sports, some swimming, some boating in inflatable rafts, some drinking, some family time. dinner was a potluck with a cooked pig - though i stuck with vegan chicken fingers and some bbq'ed tofu. the night went event heavy, and everyone was up late - ending in a campfire late into the night.
sunday: woke up and immediately did damage control - after trying to sleep longer didn't work. had some breakfast, went for a swim and a boat ride, and had a visit with my cousin and his girlfriend who stopped by with their dogs, and her 4.5 lb fish she caught the day before (we were excited). spent some time at a small beach across the lake, and then packed up to get back to the city. drove back quicker than thought, and jeff and i stopped for dinner at my local viet restaurant, and then for a short hangout before he headed back home.
it was a weekend that i'm still recovering from. not sure if it's because it was too busy, or i'm realizing that i'd rather be hiking a trail, than partying all night long. either way, it was a beautiful weekend, with lots of fam, and celebration of a good chick (my sister) turning 25.
jays game; what happens when sister’s friends work for frito
lay; father chop tends to the swine; pig spectators; the ants liked the beer; ‘slap
cup’. Apparently; jeff changing a tire while a tired little boy watches.
friday: after work, i met my little sister and her boyfriend for dinner at everest (one of my faves near my office), and then after a quick pit stop, we headed to the jays game. for her first time in the 500's, darcy was pleasantly surprised - nothing like a $13 ticket to hilarity. unfortunately we had to leave the game early to catch our Go train, but managed to miss most of the rush. insert 3 exhausted 'kids' in 4 go train seats, and we had a long trip to the cottage that night. over the course of the trip, i developed a wicked migraine, and when my mom came to grab us at the station, our first priority was a 24 hour drug store, and as many pain meds as I could stuff in my mouth. we found one, and made our way to the cottage, to meet everyone who had been hanging out and partying all night. had a very brief hangout, and went to bed, while everyone else stayed up and hung out.saturday: woke up late (with a bit of a migraine hangover), and spent the day outside - some sports, some swimming, some boating in inflatable rafts, some drinking, some family time. dinner was a potluck with a cooked pig - though i stuck with vegan chicken fingers and some bbq'ed tofu. the night went event heavy, and everyone was up late - ending in a campfire late into the night.
