Remember the episode of Friends where Joey and Chandler argue over the chair and Joey says he'll get back at Chandler by doing the opposite of Chandler taking his underwear? "Oppsosite...is opposite!"

Oh I love that show!! 😀

Anyways, yesterday was a day FULL of things turning out the opposite of what I thought they would.

I started the morning with some news that surprised me. It was the complete opposite of what I was expecting. And I will just leave it at that. I know secrets aren't fun, but it just has to be right now. Sorry!

Then, I headed to spin class and was not feeling it. I thought it would be a mediocre workout, but it ended up being amazing and I enjoyed every bit! 😀

After that, I got changed and showered to go get my hair done. You know I was considering going a bit darker. I was 100% planning on going for it, but then when I got in the chair I did this...

I'm still adjusting a bit. At first I loved it, then I hated it, and now today I am liking it again. I think I need some time for it to grow on me more. 😀

In the afternoon hours, we talked about going to a park or on a long walk since it was pretty nice out. What did we do instead?

It was supposed to be a quick stop using my brother-in-law's card to go in and get some cheaper diapers. However, I got sucked in for longer than expected and we missed our park time. Oops! Sadly, we didn't even buy any of the cool stuff I wanted to (case of Chobani anyone?? :D) because we had to head out to dinner and don't have a refrigerated trunk. Although how cool would that be? Then I could ALWAYS shop at Trader Joes! Yes, I would make the 40 minute drive each week if there was a plausible way to get it all home. I think a lot of you would too. 😉

We also did a quick stop at my in-laws for a visit. Makenzie got some play time in with her cousin Enzo...

We went to Marlow's Tavern for dinner with 2 other couples that are close friends of ours.

I didn't get any pictures because I always always get too sucked into the good times with this group and NEVER remember pictures. 🙁 You would think I would have more pictures with some of our best friends. But I don't. Not even a single one from our 3 day trip to the beach together. It's okay though. Dinner wasn't that great. I just got a burger and fries. I so should have gone with one of the other options I was considering, but I never get burgers and thought it would have been really good there. So the food was opposite of what I expected. No biggie, since the company totally made up for it!

Now a few other pertinent pieces of information.

• Two prayer requests - one for a little 2.5 week old infant named Jack. He had to have surgery last week for a bad heart murmur. The surgery failed and he is currently on life support. They are going to see if his heart has strengthened enough to beat on its own tomorrow, so please pray for him and his family. Also, our good friend Angie who is pregnant (after 2.5 years of trying) is showing some possibility of preterm labor. Please pray that she gets through these last 4-5 weeks until she is full term (36-37 weeks). I would absolutely HATE to see anything happen to their little girl after all the time they have already waited for this blessing of a child.
• Fun Fact Friday Answer - Spring is my 3rd favorite season, fall wins! I love the temps, the things to do, and just everything about fall. Summer is 2nd. And winter doesn't even get called fourth because I despise it. So, yes, one of my favorite songs is Baby Got Back. It is purely for nostalgic purposes of laughs with my sister. But it never fails that I want to sing along to that song and it makes me smile! LOL
• Lots of Giveaways in Blogworld - Naomi from One Fit Foodie, Morgan from Live Love Eat and Play, Kate from What Kate Ate, and Eater Not A Runner. 😀

How is everyone's weekend? Good? I sure hope so! 🙂 Mine has been super busy, as I posted yesterday. Last night we went to our friends' wedding and it was really nice. Nicole is an interior decorator and Dan is a photographer, so the wedding was quite the gorgeous sight. It had a contemporary, but cozy and romantic feel all at the same time. Here are a few pictures from the evening:

Today has been the usual. Church this morning, relaxing and catching up on blogs in the afternoon, tutoring in the later afternoon, etc. After a busy Friday and Saturday, we do have plans for a very chill evening tonight. We are just going to watch a movie and have some pizza. Speaking of which, that reminds me...

Fun Fact Friday's Results - #1 is true! NOT #2! I've done it again and fooled you all. Hahaha. I HATE fish, unless it is sushi. I have tried to make it numerous ways and can't enjoy it. Well, I take that back. One other way I do eat it is in the fish tacos where my sister works. And for the record, I do like Papa Johns, but being married to an Italian whose family is from New York has made me a pizza snob and I much prefer the more authentic slices from hole in the wall places these days.

So I guess I don't have anything very eventful to post about today. GLS (Good Life Sunday) will have to be postponed because I have to wait to listen to the sermon online. I volunteered in the nursery after teaching our Sunday school class and didn't get to listen to the sermon, which was apparently really good.
