If only I had my camera for a fraction of all this weekend...But there was no way to capture every moment of the "WOW" factors that occurred. People just kept pulling rabbits out of their hats one by one and the shock is still stuck on my face. I'll explain...
Here are my Weekend Stolen Moments...
~ Friday night began with news that has me bursting with joy. My cousin Alex is engaged to his girlfriend Carol!!! I was blinded sided immediately. I think in the 2 years of them dating I've only seen her 3 times which now she is like "We have to become friends!" and "I need help" and "Please say yes to being a bridesmaid?" Of course my answer was yes but there is mixed feelings about this future wedding from my family....More I'm sure will follow about this...
~My father and CJ's Mom work for the same company, unbeknown to us when we met. The CEO's daughter from Germany has come to America for the next two months. I am loving every minute with her because she is in this culture shock mode that is becoming so cool. She wants to see everything and learn what a Supermarket is, learn that in a 6 pack you have to buy all the beer in the 6 pack not just 1, and okay she needs her own post...I will continue this later in the week...

~I was witness to something really cool. I live right by where the opening scene to the movie Labyrinth was filmed. Sarah is giving her monologue about the labyrinth. Near it there is a small pier where people can sit and have a picnic by the water. I sat there reading when I noticed an older gentleman playing a guitar. It sounded beautiful with his skilled fingers. Suddenly a boy appeared with an acoustic guitar ready to battle the elder gentleman. I heard the mimicking boy and saw the older man gave in and they joined in together. It was a cute moment. ~
~I started reading the book, "The Help" and it's a real eye-opener treat. I can't wait to keep reading...~
What were your Weekend Stolen Moments?

Oh my goodness your weekend was amazing!! Hope the week continues on the same way for you.
We had a magical 10 days in California...can't get any better than that! xoxoxo
To me a funny stolen moment was when I was at my friend's house. They have this really large cat that doesn't like anyone. Barely even cuddles with his owner. Well he came and sat right on my lap with no prompt from me and I got to cuddle and snuggle with him. Everyone was in shock.
Enjoying an awesome barbeque with my friends.
Sitting with my friend on his rooftop deck and hearing jazz from across the street, with a beautiful sunset happening.
Ha - I can't wait to hear about the CEO's daughter. I've had three foreign exchange sisters from Germany, and the one thing that always happens is that they put on weight. America has some deliciously fattening food. :) :)
Yes, "The Help" is a marvelous novel. It's good clear to the last word and then some. I thought for a minute, you were the one getting married. Please don't just yet...just sayin'. Sounds as if you had a lovely weekend.
I was obsessed with The Help! I couldn't put it down!
the guitar story is my favorite! how fabulous!
The Help was such an awesome book! And totally unexpected when I first picked it up- it was suggested to me by a friend. Can't wait for the movie- hope it does the book some justice!
The old man/young guy moment sounds so cute!
