BBQ and Goodies



Well my brother has come and gone. I saw him for about an hour and a half, so not enough time, but so worth it, even though he ate basically all of my french fries and picked on me the entire time.

We met up at a truly southern restaurant, a BBQ joint famous for its banana pudding and vinegar based BBQ. I wasn't a big fan of the vinegar based BBQ, but that banana pudding was the best I have ever had. Too bad the place is an hour and a half away from where I live. Mostly, Josh and I spent the time talking about what's going on back in MI with the family, and he asked me questions about North Carolina, all and all a very good time.

I also got many goodies from my brother, and from my parents back in MI. I got a Michigan State shirt (picture above), peanut butter M&M's, Chex Party Mix (pictured above), Clothes (that I had left in MI from Christmastime), my pillow, mixing bowls, popcorn popper, DVDs, skittles, plain M&M's, and root beer barrels. Plus some furniture that I am using to decorate the bedroom I am moving into. Same house different bedroom. I am so blessed to have such a great family who makes sure I am taken care of.

In other news, my parents are coming in 77 days! They will be here for 4 nights this time, 2 nights more than the last time so we can actually just relax and have a good time instead of rushing trying to cram things in and see everything. I can't wait to see them, and play Wii with them :)

The pictures above were taken from my camera on my mac so unfortunately I can't get a lot of pictures because the camera isn't as versatile as a real camera.

Please pray for my roommate as she was supposed to undergo Gastric Bypass Surgery this morning but it had to be postponed and she is having a rough time emotionally with how everything is changing and uncertain at this time.
