It's All About the U

It hasn't been a very exciting week here. Just a pretty boring week, which is kinda of nice since my weeks have been a little crazy lately.

Saturday, we went to a pumpkin patch. We really just got 2 pumpkins and left. :) Then we headed to Durham to watch the Duke/Miami game. We ate lunch on Duke's campus. It was chilly in the shade, but pretty warm once we got to the stadium. Unfortunately, it was a rather boring game, so we left before halftime. We then headed to North Raleigh to look at a Juke. One will be coming to our driveway... in a couple of years. :) (hopefully!) Then we came home and watched some football! GO STATE! Ranked for the first time since 2001.

Today, we went to Cary to church. The preacher is a little long winded- but nothing like the one in Fuquay. We also met a nice couple. They have the two cutest kids. They even invited us to lunch. We went and ate at a Mexican place with them. She likes couponing and yard sales! They were older than us, but super nice!

This week, my parents are flying in and John has class. Should be a good week!

DUMA

This week, I saw students for the first time this semester. Between co-teaching the 7:45 class everyday and sorting our schedule troubles, I was so ready for this week to be over!

Friday, we rented The Ghost Writer from the redbox. I don't remember hearing about it, but it was actually pretty good! We woke up Saturday and headed to RDU to pick up Clark. After we got him, we headed to Durham for the Duke/Bama game. We ate at a shopping center area... J and I had pizza, and C had Mediterranean. Then we headed to campus, which was a mad house. There were probably more Bama fans than Duke fans! We saw a couple of guys who had cut a BAMA shirt and a DUKE shirt in half and had sewn them back together as BAKE and DUMA. We found a bookstore and I got a blue shirt, and so did C. Then we took a quick look at Duke's Basketball Court. We headed into the game about 1.5 hours early, figuring it would be full... we were wrong, so we baked in the sun for an extra hour. :) We all have 1/2 red bodies. :)

Today, we went to church in Raleigh with Anna again. Her parents and brother were visiting, so we went to eat at Cafe Carolina with them. When they left, we headed to Goodberry's for frozen custard, then hung out with Anna for a while. Now we are waiting for Swamp People to come on!
