Life is better on the weekends

So I had a pretty eventful weekend! For once. Luke took me home on Friday because I had to get my car and he had to pick up his BFF Henry (who has been in Iraq) from the airport at like, 11:30. So on Friday we got home, and after 5 minutes at my house were bored out of our minds, so we decided to go into town and get mom a coffee. She has been painting the house and right now is suffering through the living room, high ceilings and all. So we went into town and I decided to stop by gram's to say hi. After awhile there we got hungry so we went to the new sushi place. Yup, we went to a sushi restaurant. It was actually really good too. I got a california roll and Luke got a 'Seattle roll' which is has avocado and raw salmon. I was proud of him for being so adventurous. If you're wondering, raw salmon doesn't taste. At all. Which is probably a good thing.
The next day we were going to go back to Ellensburg earlyish but Henry asked Luke and I to go to dinner with him, his fiance Sunnie, and Henry's sister and boyfriend. Luke decided to come over around one because we were both bored. He brought me a energy drink. Boyfriends are great:). After watching tv for awhile Luke came up with the idea of playing badminton because it was amazing weather. It was kind of breezy so we decided to not put up the net and just hit around the badminton. After doing that for awhile dad turned on the sprinklers so we had to stop.
We went inside and were hanging out in my room trying to decide what to do when mom started yelling for help. We ran into the living room thinking she was having a painting catastrophe but she wasn't in the living room so we went to go to the kitchen when we ran into an inch of water on the floor. Something under the sink had come unhooked and water had been spraying on the floor for quite awhile. We all thought the spraying sound had been something dad was doing. We all ran and got towels and mom called dad in and he went and got the wet/dry vacuum cleaner and we basically soaked up and vacuumed the water up. It all took about ten minutes so I don't think the floor was damaged so that's good.
At 5 we met the others at McGlinn's. After about ten minutes I looked over and Alex's dad was standing like 5 feet away from me. I kind of freaked out. Worst time ever for his parents to show up right? Oh well at least it wasn't Alex. I swear they were waiting for a table for forever! I felt like I was being watched. I tried to acknowledge his mom but she didn't see me so I took it as a sign and decided to pretend I hadn't seen them. Besides that dinner went really well. The only person I had met there was Henry and only for a few hours. It was a pretty entertaining dinner though. Henry acted like he had known me forever so it was good. We were going to drive back to Ellensburg from the restaurant but we had to drive Henry and Sunnie home to Waterville. I met Henry's family which is like Luke's second family so that was good.
We finally started back to Ellensburg (I didn't end up taking my car back because Luke didn't want to drive back alone).
Today was much less eventful but we had amazing weather again. Luke and I did our homework outside and we got nice tans. Well right now we're kinda red but tomorrow it'll be a tan. It was a good weekend. I wish every weekend was this nice.
