Garden Party

Last evening Marisa, Rachel, and I went to a garden party at President George Bridges's home to be honored for donating to the senior class scholarship fund. Having never been to an official garden party, I didn't quite know what to expect, but I figured it would be like the one hosted by Dwight Schrute. 




Unfortunately, no one announced the guests, and there was no closing ceremonies. There was dessert, bread and cheese, and beverages though, and it was a nice evening to be in a garden. Not to mention, there were plenty of awkward speeches! It was all-in-all very entertaining.

On Sunday evening we had a slightly less fancy, but equally entertaining. Near the grocery store where we buy our dairy and other animal bi-products, there is a restaurant called "China Buffet," but from where we park, we can only see the word "China." Over the year we've taken to imagining it as a portal to China, so when we made the bucket list, we had to add China Portal. So on Sunday we decided the time had come and we should check it out. The food was quite a bit of a let down, our China expert suggested we would have had closer to authentic food at China Express... However, we did find the portal!



The weather was very nice for a few days, so Zoe and I hung out outside quite a bit! 

Such a lovely day!
