The night before my 21st Chris and I went to a wedding with a bunch of his friends. It was a beautiful wedding with some modern twists which was pretty neat. During the reception it was announced that the centerpiece lantern would go to the person at your table with the closest birthday. HEY! That's ME! (It happens to match the lantern that is currently in my apartment!) Dancing and drinks were enjoyed at the reception. Chris and I left early because Chris had to be at O'hare the next morning early to fly to Puerto Rico for the WF mission trip. I think we were both kinda bummed that this was happening the same day as my birthday, but that's life!
Sunday morning, my birthday, I woke up a little excited and a little sad. I was missing celebrating my birthday with my family. I would just have to wait until next weekend when I could be at the lake with them. That evening I went to Cheesecake Factory with Chris' parents to celebrate my birthday. Thank you!!! I ended the day talking to my mom and just wanting the week to begin so the weekend would come quick! Chris came back friday night around 7. It was amazing to see him and hear all of his stories about Puerto Rico. It sounds like quite the beautiful place! Chris is amazing. He was exhausted and yet followed through on his promise to drive to the lake Friday night. We split the drive and eventually made it to the place which is both so special to us...Lake Max! This is the weekend that my little Pete would be going to Culver Woodcraft Camp for 6 whole weeks. Man....I'm gonna miss him!
