Best. Weekend. Ever.

This is basically going to be the best weekend ever. Would you like to know why? I am in my hometown of Newnan, Georgia! I get to hang out with my awesome family, including my uncle AND both sets of grandparents, not to mention whoever else decides to pop up along the course of the next three days. Usually when I visit, it is either someone's birthday or anniversary, or I have a doctor's appointment. That is not the case with this visit. Though I will be fairly busy, this weekend I just get to enjoy the company of so many people who I haven't seen in quite a while.

My family has been kind enough to make sure the weekend is as busy as possible. For instance, I have been here since 2pm. I have already
met with Granddaddy and Nonny, my dad's parents, who live over in Smyrna, Georgia. We got to visit for a while, but not toooo long because the Moore children had to head back to Newnan, pick up a friend, and meet with the young adults (and when I say young adults, I mean ADULTS, not teenagers or what-have-you) of our church congregation here in town. A fun evening was had by all. We ate pizza, brownies, and chocolate cake all while The Princess Bride played in the background. Once the movie was over, we decided to pull out the Wii and hit up some "Mario Party 8" and "Mario Kart Wii." All this while reminiscing about movies, music, and TV shows from our childhood, i.e. Willow, Ace of Base, "Daria," the Lord of the Rings trilogy, etc... On a side note, our friend Michal, Ann and I spent at least 15 minutes chatting up the Lord of the Rings, and I borrowed Michal's version of The Simarillion, which, for those of you who do not know, is essentially the prequel to The Hobbit or the aforementioned trilogy. Basically, we are the coolest young adults. Ever.

These next few days are sure to be very busy as well. Tomorrow, we have church in the morning and the evening, and in between that, we are attending Emily's college roommate's (Ruth) senior recital at Agnes Scott over in Decatur. I must say I'm not terribly excited abo
ut this, but it has been a while since I have seen Ruth, so as long as she, Emily, and I have some time to chat I suppose I am okay with tagging along. I'm sure after church services tomorrow night, our family will eat supper and watch a movie just like we used to do every Sunday night so that downtime will be much appreciated after being out allll day.

So far the only plans we have on Monday is dinner with my mom's parents, Miss Momma and Mr. Diddy. We will be partaking of the wonderful Sprayberry's barbecue, home of the yummiest stew ever created. Oh, and Emily mentioned something about heart-shaped quesadillas for lunch. Apparently, Emily is on this huge nutrition kick, and
she's trying to get the entire family on this kick with her, and she has decided in order to do that, she will cook all of our meals. Oookay. Heart-shaped quesadillas. Sounds yummy!

Then Tuesday... I return to Orlando sometime Tuesday afternoon. I'm sure that morning will basically be spent packing, driving to the airport, and saying our good-byes. How sad :(

So, yeah! A busy itinerary for the weekend, but you know what, I'm okay with that! At first I wasn't so excited because, let's face it, I'm a lazy slob who would much rather sit around on the computer all day than go out and actually do something with my life, but that's the one th
ing about myself that I am determined to change this year. So I welcome the next few days with open arms and am looking forward to the great times ahead.

Before I go though, Emily has agreed to assist me in modifying my blog soooo hopefully there will be some time in the next couple of days when Emily and I sit down and spruce up the site. Then it will look 10 times as awesome as it already does! Be on the lookout! Good night!
