So last weekend, Reynold, Char, Annie, and Lerin conspired against Jennifer in a suprise birthday party/weekend.
Thursday afternoon, Lerin, Craig, and Paula drove over to boise and met mom, dad, and I for dinner. While the four of them talked the whole time, Lerin and I just ate our dinners, happy to get to spend some time together, and making eyes and faces at eachother the whole time. After dinner Lerin and I went for a walk in the Boise rose gardens. (I honestly did not know about the city parks' curfew...apparently they don't like people in the parks after dark... :-) oops!)
Friday morning, Lerin flew to portland where she met up with Annie and Reynold. They successfully pulled off the big suprise when Char took Jen in for a pedicure that afternoon. (Apparently, they got the whole thing on tape too.) From what I was told, everyone had a great weekend, and Lerin even got a suprise when all three of Char's girls gave her a hug and kiss on Sunday, saying "Uncle Brian loves you." (Thanks Char!) :-) (They are so excited to have an "Aunt Lerin". They've been working on it for over 2 years now, they think it's so awesome.)
Lerin got back in Boise Sunday night and I picked her up at the airport and we just spent the rest of the evening and Monday morning together. We went to lunch, spent some more time in the rose gardens, and then said our goodbyes that afternoon when she picked up her car from Pat's house.
Otherwise, things are going well, I'm installing alarms in the Boise/Nampa area, making some pretty good money, but still managing to be suprised at how quickly it dissappears. Wedding plans are progressing, and I'm beginning some experience opportunities in preparation for medical school. I'm not sure if I will be able to meet the deadlines for taking the MCAT and submitting Med School Applications next spring/summer, but I will do my best, I'm just a little behind and stacked in the amount of courses I have to take before that time, but we'll see how things play out.
All-in-all...I think my life is pretty good!
