Weekend Adventures

Josh and I started our weekend off with a lesson in phonology. For those of you who don’t know, Josh is preparing to take his diagnostic exams on November 8th – a six-hour test which requires answering four (out of eight possible) questions pertaining to the core courses of his degree. After my first lesson in phonology, I am very thankful that Josh is the one taking the exam instead of me!

Friday night we went out to Mimi’s Cafe for dinner (thanks, David and Caroline). We enjoyed the food and our date together. Our server was extremely busy and did a great job juggling all his customers. When we were ready to leave, the group next to us asked our waiter if there were any booths available where they could move to. He came back saying there was nothing open for them and told them that if something opened up, he’d let them know. When he came by our table, we told him we were ready for our check and would leave so they other group could have our booth. His response, “No hurry – picky people can wait. I’ve been around picky people all day.” He made us laugh.

Saturday night we went to Micah Lutz’s football game. Micah is the son of our pastor, and we enjoyed watching his game with Pastor John and some other family members. Micah scored two touchdowns to help his team win their game. After the game, we joined the Lutz family for pizza and cake to celebrate Micah’s 13th birthday. We ended the night by playing an intense game of Scategories…I never knew that tigers were animals on a farm.
