The Geddies and I

i had set a goal to go over to the Geddie's house every tuesday night. so, for about the past 2 months, i have gone over to their place to take a couple hours and help them out in some way and spend time with them! it has been quite the adventure and pretty fun. sometimes i helped the girls practice piano, making the chore of sorting through the crazy-big basket of socks lots of fun, do dishes and clear off the table, clean Geoff's room, talk to Sister G, help the girls study for their tests...last week we went to Cici's Pizza. it was lots of fun and we got to get out of the house!
last night i went over there for the last time this semester :/ it's okay, though. i went to have a fun night with the girls, cuz whenever i go over there i'm usually working in some way and they haven't like that. last night was all about them. lol. we had spaghetti for supper and then hopped into the pool. it was a little chilly, but it was bearable...for the most part. we had a bunch of fun. Geoff's ipod was out there, so we turned on some tunes and played around in the pool for a while. we dunked each other and chased each other and splashed around while screaming and laughing like there was no tomorrow. the boys, Jakob and Geoff, eventually came home from dodge ball and jumped in. haha. as soon as they did it, they regretted it. you see, the pool had gotten pretty darn cold since we got in. even i had goosebumps and thought about getting out. the girls and i had an agreement that if anything happened to us, like we were chased or attacked by the boys, we'd help each other out. well, the boys are pretty strong and i could only protect Kerstin for so long...she got thrown into the pool twice. lol. then, after we realized our lips had turned purple and we couldn't stop shaking, we all got out and wrapped up in towels. Geoff told me to get onto the trampoline with him and Jakob, but i denied and told him that this night was a girl night. i felt a little bad cuz i love to hangout with Jakob, but i would have felt worse if i turned out to be like all the other girls that Kaitlyn and Kerstin told me about. we went inside and made some hot chocolate and played 20 questions and Memory. then it was time for prayer and bed. after the girls went to bed, Geoff and i cleaned the kitchen for about 2hrs. we were SO tired, but it got done, thankfully. i'll miss those girls so much! hopefully we'll be able to Skype! maybe every tuesday night! :) we'll have to see about that. i'll have to go say bye to them before i leave on thursday along with stopping by the Curtis's. hmmm, that will be a busy evening. happy thoughts! lol.
