Girl's Day/Day of the Dudes

Two weekends ago we had a Girl's Day/Day of the Dudes(as the boys like to call it). The boys went down to Evansville to Walther's Golf and Fun. They played mini golf, arcade games and laser tag. Sorry no pictures...the batteries were dead. Aaron said they had fun and I'm sure it was a real manly time! The girls, however, had a very girly time. We went to the Beauty College and got manicures and then went to a coffee shop for some drinks. After that some of the girls came back to our house for a good chick flick and popcorn! Nothing says "girly" more than those things.

Anniversary Trip to Indy

Aaron and I celebrated our 2nd anniversary in January but we didn't get to really celebrate it until this past weekend. We decided to go to Indianapolis for the weekend. I took Friday off of work so we got there Thursday night. Our hotel was downtown. Friday morning we walked around downtown and walked by the canal. It was a beautiful day. We went to a movie, went out to eat at Bucca di Beppos, and then went to a Pacers game. Our friend from college works for the Fever/Pacers so she got us free tickets! Thanks again Jackie! Saturday we went shopping at the mall and went ice skating. By the end of our trip our legs were pretty sore from walking around everywhere and skating!
Here are some pictures from our wonderful weekend away!
This is outside the NCAA Hall of Champions. We didn't get to go in because they had a fire earlier in the year and were closed for repairs.

This is frozen mist from a waterfall along the canal.

Aaron and I went to see the movie "Paul Blart- The Mall Cop" and then we saw a mall cop riding on a little scooter thing just like in the movie! I laughed everytime I saw this man. We also saw a 30-some year old man in a suit playing Dance Dance Revolution all by himself. We got a little chuckle out of that scene.

Ice skating at the Pan American building. It was my first time skating so please don't judge!

Super Bowl

This year, like last year, we had our youth super bowl party at the home of 2 of our adult leaders. We borrowed a projecter from the college to put the game on the wall. It makes it a little more exciting that way! Every year, one of the leaders puts together a little quiz called the Vincennes Youth Group Super Bowl Challenge. It had a lot of random questions like, "How long will the National Anthem be?", "What will the first penalty of the game be?" and "How many times will the announcer say ball in the first quarter?" The winner gets this pretty intersting traveling trophy. We have such great adult leaders. :) Here is a picture of last year's winner, passing off the trophy to this year's winner. After the second quarter was a preview for a 3-D movie coming out. Aaron got 3-D glasses for everyone. It wasn't as exciting as we were all hoping but it was still fun to see everyone wearing the glasses!

Pizza Making

Saturday before the Super Bowl we make pizzas for a fundraiser. Aaron orders all the ingredients from a whole sale food distributor and then we put them all together. We had quite the assembly line going! We made about 250 pizzas that day.
