Today has been very scattered! I think I caught something on the plane and/or ate something to gluteny that is sloooowly making it's way painfully through my system. So I've been down today, but here's a quick run down!
1. Slept in! Hurrah!
2. Went to a baby-gender "Reveal" party held by the associate pastor of our church and his wife. This is their third child, so they decided to have a little fun with revealing the gender of their baby - both to the public and to themselves! Apparently they had the doctor write the baby's gender on a piece of paper and sealed it in an envelope. Then they went to have a cake made, and gave the cake-maker the envelope, with the instructions to color the middle layer of the icing the baby's gender! (blue if a boy, pink if a girl) The cake-maker was surely surprised, but they went ahead and did it! So we all showed up to the party dressed in either pink or blue, as a vote, and then played some fun baby games. Then, the moment came, and they cut into the cake - discovering that they were going to have a girl in front of the whole crowd of their friends! It was really fun, and definitely different.
3. We got some lunch, and I took a loooong nap. I woke up feeling not much better than when I went to sleep, leading me to believe that I caught something :/
4. The rest of the evening has been spent listening to the local radio to the path of the hurricane, moving our cars away from a tilting tree, and planning for this upcoming weekend trip! Our cousin, Paul, is getting married to a wonderful woman, Allison, in Fredericksburg this weekend, and we're going to make a trip out of it, heading to the Richmond area and then Roanoke to get a feel for the area.
In other news, I finished watching "Cranford" - a period drama - and have been enjoying a good old romantic film. Just the medicine for an ailing stomach!
