Events in Murdock Land

Dear Sister Kennedy,

I almost forgot to write you this week.  I had just shut down my computer and started putting on my pajamas when I suddenly realized I hadn't written to you yet.  And Justin hadn't written to Shelby.  So we both booted up our computers again and started typing.  Anyway, how are the new pink shoes?  I was so not surprised when I saw the picture.  ;)

Justin and I went out for dinner Friday night.  He got a coupon for Outback Steakhouse, so we decided to take advantage and not cook that night.  Yummy steaks!  We also went to the Sketchers outlet near our apartment and we each got a new pair of shoes.  They were having a sale and my shoes were totally worn out, so we splurged.  Yay for new shoes!  After dinner, we wandered around Barnes and Noble for a while.  A dangerous past-time, I know.  ;)  Don't worry, we still have a bank account.  We actually didn't buy anything.  Gasp!  Two English majors got out of a bookstore without buying any books!  It's a miracle!  

Monday was our swing final in our dance class.  We did pretty well, I think.  Justin picked up swing way better than we thought he would.  It was also our final for the whole class, because the semester is ending.  Which means no more dancing.  :(  Maybe I can talk him into taking another one.  

Justin's sister Shelby comes home from her mission on Thursday.  I can't believe it's already been a year and a half since she left.  We're driving up Thursday night, and then she'll speak that Sunday.  We'll see how well she does speaking English again, since she's been speaking Tagalog for 18 months.  Should be interesting.  

Well, I'm going to sign off now and head to bed.  Have to get up early in the morning.  Blah.  Hugs and lots of love.
