It's almost 4am here and I'm still awake. It's like Friday nights have some sort of weekend magic where I can manage to stay up all night. I stay up really late most Friday nights / Saturday mornings and I'm not 100% sure why. Maybe it's because I get alone time? I mean usually we don't have anything going on Saturday mornings, although I always end up regretting staying up so late. I'm not really doing anything important. I usually spend my time watching mindless tv, playing on facebook, reading blogs, and working on mine. It's a nice way to unwind though after a long week.
This week has been long too. Work was just kind of off all week. We were pretty busy, like we always are at this time of the year; but it's more because this week has been marked by some pretty significant losses. I don't think I should go into too much detail (sorry people), but a former co-worker suffered a major loss in their family (this hit everyone very hard). And one of our great senior techs is leaving; it's a really great opportunity for her and we are all very happy for her, but she is going to be sorely missed.
I have been really looking forward to this weekend though! John's parents have been nice enough to get the boys haircuts today (Saturday), I really can't wait to go. Oliver's hair is getting totally unruly, it just sticks out everywhere. Owynn's hair is so long it's starting to get into his eyes, it's just so shaggy! At least with Oliver I can touch up his hair a bit between haircuts so it stays out of his eyes, but Owynn won't let me anywhere near his hair. Sunday we are going to John's best friend's 30th Birthday Party, we are bowling then going out to dinner at the place they all used to hang out at in high school. Should be lots of fun!

Who's Running the Company?
Saturday the four of us went up to Omaha for the wedding of two of my former co-workers (Congrats you guys, we are so happy for you!) I was sad to leave that location when we moved back to Lincoln, although my co-workers at my new location are pretty awesome. I can not emphasize enough how much fun it was to see everyone, and by the turn out for the wedding I don't know who was left to run the company! There were soooo many people there that I had worked with, it was so great! I realized how much I miss these people.
I was a little worried about how everyone would handle the wedding, but my family is amazing (especially John) and everyone made it through. John is so great; to make a long story short he has anxiety issues. Although he has been doing a lot better lately, he still has trouble dealing with things outside of his comfort zone. Especially 1-dealing with people he doesn't really know 2-being in crowded places, and the wedding was both. But he went with me anyways even though we both knew how hard it would be on him; and he did it because he loves me and knows how much I wanted to go. =) The boys were great too. They barely made a peep at the church during the ceremony. They both got pretty antsy at the reception when they had to sit in our laps for awhile during the entrance of the wedding party and waiting for dinner. But once we had dinner and cake they perked back up. Oliver loooooved the dance floor, he spent most of his time early in the evening dancing with the bigger kids (it was super cute!). After dinner he had fun running off his energy running back and forth around the buffet and bar area. They boys were a big hit with one of my old co-workers family, his 2 kiddos had the boys out on the dance floor most of the night, and Owynn was pretty attached to his wife. When he started getting sleepy he got all snuggly, it was pretty cute.
The ceremony was beautiful, and the reception was fantastic. The food was yummy, everyone at our table was lots of fun, and I was way too happy with the giant candy bar they had. Instead of traditional wedding favors they had a big table with different desserts and a big assortment of candy. They had little baggies so you could make and take your own, I can't get over what a great idea that was! Oh and the bride's dress was absolutely gorgeous! It was like a princess dress and was all ruffles, she looked amazing!
We had such a great time, I wish that everyone could get together more often. By the time we got home everyone was completely worn out and went straight to bed. I was still pretty worn out when I got up this morning even though I got plenty of sleep (apparently my body thinks it's getting older). For me it was a wonderful weekend! John toughed it out and definitely needed our low key day today to recuperate. With everything that has been going on lately I think I needed this. I am very happy, thanks in no small part to John (because he is awesome). I hope everyone else had a good weekend too!
