Pittsburgh Aviary

Funzies

This weekend has been quite fun so far. Jimmy and I ended up celebrating V-Day on Saturday.

What we did:

  • Went to Pittsburgh’s Aviary
  • Went out to lunch
  • Saw The Vow
  • Walked around the mall
  • Had dinner at my house
  • Watched Courageous at my house with my family
Sometimes I think I scare Jimmy because I just text him random things for no reason…

He’s used to it though ;). The aviary was really cool! It was my first time visiting and we saw a lot of cool birds. I almost got pooped on like six times too. Rock on!Flamingos were the theme of the day for Valentines Day. Cute.We also got to walk in a room with really loud birds flying all over the place. It was frightening and cool at the same time. We also got to see bald eagles. I never realized how big they are. I don’t have any pictures from the other parts of the day but I had a really nice time! I enjoyed The Vow but I read the book before I saw the movie and it was totally different (it’s based off of a true story!). The movie Courageous was amazing. It has some great family values in it and I definitively cried like 6x haha!

I’m so much happier this semester than I was last semester.

I felt constantly stressed and bogged down with school work from September-December. I decided to take a few easier courses this semester but I also made an important decision: I decided not to let school work rule my life or stress me out. I know that sounds dumb or simple, but for me, it has been a big (positive) change and I’m happy 🙂

Oh yeah–check out this old family picture I found!Have a great Sunday!

Be careful!

My dad recently sent me an email that I thought I should share with everyone…

A family left their iPhone charger plugged into their vehicle outlet. The outlet overheated and started a fire while parked in their garage. The family was safe because the fire started around 11pm, right before they went to bed, and it didn’t spread to the house.

This is what remains of their 2007 Suburban…

Moral of the story: Make sure to check your smoke detectors and replace the batteries… and don’t leave your phone charger plugged in your car!

On a lighter note, Lily is highly amused with the toilet. Random!I hope everyone has a great weekend. Pittsburgh is due to get some snow, but I think I’m going to be celebrating Valentine’s Day with Jimmy on Saturday! We are probably going to go to Pittsburgh’s Aviary, see a movie, and grab a bite to eat.
Are you doing anything fun this weekend?!
