I ♥ Saturdays

This Saturday was a lazy one for sure! We did something long overdue...we slept in! We awoke at 11:15, and it was glorious!!! The only problem is we had a date with some friends at 11:45! Talk about adrenaline. While guys may be able to put on pants, shoes, change their shirts and call themselves ready; this little lady needs some time. So much for washing my hair, thank goodness for dry shampoo!

We made it to our new favorite Thai restaurant in town, called Renoos. It is sooo good! For Las Cruces, it tastes pretty authentic to what I was eating in Chaing Rai 5 years ago. We met up with Daniel and Theresa, two of our favorite people, and spent the next 2.5 hours catching up on each other's lives. Our conversation quickly changed as the boys chatted away about the scary video games they were playing, and the girls talked about movies and TV series they just finished. It was effortless, natural...it was fun.

I so enjoy days like this. Good food, great people, and fun.

Nothing Like A Game Night

It has been faaaaar too long since Bobby and I have hung out with another couple, one on one! This may not seem like a huge deal, but it is something my soul longs for. The extrovert in me is crying out for it. My better half could not be more different. He is a wonderful introvert, who recharges on silences and isolation. But alas, he gave in!

So like I said, we had our friends Christy and Lucas over. They brought their adorable 20 month old son, Daniel, who became bffs with our pups, Google Maps and Penelope, pretty quick. They are the leaders of the Destino, the hispanic college ministry at NMSU. We got to catch up on life, ministry and break bread together...well they were more like pita chips, but anyways. Not to mention, we christened our new Settlers of Catan board game, which is a must play if you are affiliated with Cru!

It was so nice to be able to connect again with someone outside of work (not that I don't LOVE my work homies). But to have the freedom to talk about life; the good, bad and ugly of it, and to talk about faith and our relationship with Christ...it was refreshing.

We need this to be a reoccurring event!
