Fun, Relaxing weekend!

This was a pretty chill weekend in Fayetteville. A good friend of ours - Erin Bezet - from Conway came in Saturday morning to spend the weekend with us!

Saturday around 11:00, I (Garrett) went to a wedding in Springdale. It was an old college roommate who got married. How awesome is an outside wedding in August in the middle of the day right?!

Stephanie and Erin did a little painting on Saturday then we all just hung around the house that afternoon!

That evening we got the privilege of having two international students come over and eat with us! We were expecting a few Muslim students; however, some things got mixed up and we ended up with some Europeans. We picked up Hannes (Austria) and Paul (Ireland) from campus around 5:30 and came back to the house!

We just talked and got to know their story while at the house, then of course we wanted to play Settlers of Catan! The game originated in Germany, and Hannes had played plenty of times. Apparently it is pretty big in Austria as well! He was pumped to play! We had a blast hanging out with them and look forward to continuing the relationship. Hannes won the game if anyone was wondering...

Here is the two red velvet cakes we made on Friday night for the dinner! They absolutely loved the cakes - and took plenty home too!
