Weekend Roundup

Raquetball
We played racquetball on Saturday for an hour. It was hilarious to see how afraid of the ball Bryttan was. However, this is 100% the normal reaction. The first time you go to play racquetball, you are completely overwhelmed by how fast the ball goes, but after a few times of playing you'll start to anticipate where it is going, and the ball won't seem to be moving so fast.

Bryttan was able to hit it a few times by the end of our session. And I think she liked it...who knows though.....haha.

Needless to say, it was quite tiring....

Laser Tag
We finally went and played laser-tag! And it was amazing. Everything I remember it to be and more. We played 1 round, about a 20-min round. Kyle, Whitney, Bradshaw, David and his friend joined Bryttan and Me for a battle to the death. (As well as some 12-14 year old punks).

Let me set the scene: It's dark...foggy....we are fully suited up in body armor with scary and intimidating blinking lights on the chest and shoulders, we are all wandering around a labyrinth just waiting to find someone to kill.

Suddenly, a deathly beep from the guns as the round begins. Chaos ensues, as people scream, lasers fire, people run, and a child begins crying (sorry Bradshaw). What follows can only be described as an EPIC battle to the death. Who I was in the real world left the moment I stepped into that battleground. I...I didn't even recognized myself. I even shot my own fiance.

Anywho, after the game ended, we got the scores. I got 3rd place. Yay! :)

Lot's of Pain
The sugar gliders have finally bonded to us, and we let them crawl all over us, and hide out in our pockets. When I hold them however, they seem to like to dig their nails into my stomach and run up and down and all around under my shirt.

Let's just say, My stomach was VERY VERY RED after this. (Oh, and btw, putting lotion on broken skin. very bad idea. Who knew?)

Bryttan enjoyed having them on her as well, even though they went down her shirt, and that, according to her, was quite painful. So they mostly just relaxed in her coat pocket.

Aviator Cap
The aviator cap that I purchased for Bryttan finally came! Just in time for Christmas....well...just in time for January 20th!

Recycled Failed Attempt at DIY Gifts for my Fiance
I really tried to make a cool DIY gift for Bryttan for Christmas, but alas, I must not have the DIY skill. I was originally making her a hand made wood battleship game (awesome, I know, you don't need to tell me) But alas, I didn't have the tools to complete the project, nor the time. I finally decided to show Bryttan before I decided to throw it away, but she loved what I had made, and is busy turning it into a jewelry box. She'll have more on that later I'm sure :)

Anyway, I think these are the highlights of the weekend. :) So I'll leave you with a picture of US, because honestly, who doesn't want to look at us?

Going "awwww" is not only allowed, but encouraged.
