weekend in Indy

Last weekend was spent in Indianapolis with my family. I have this really awesome opportunity to make a video for one of my aunt's spiritual talk at this weekend thing (Lamplighter/ Great Banquet) and to do this I took pictures of our weekend. Her life is very fun and the people in her life are really awesome! 

Friday we went to a Chinese restaurant, then to her friends really old house. --- by the way... really old, vintage, anything like that is a real compliment when I say it! I love anything that looks old or dated or was really representative of a different time. --- Then on a whim we just decided to go to Goodwill! The day was awesome! Goodwill, with the intention of going is awesome, but I do have to say that an impulsive trip to Goodwill might be even better. I ended up getting this jacket that has a unicorn on it with a rainbow in the background and then a bigger picture of that on the back, as well as Dorthy- like patterned shorts (but only pink..and with a heart button) I deemed it a successful trip.  

On Saturday we got up at 6 (ish) to go work out at the War Memorial. Oh. My. Gosh. I was hurting soooo bad the next 2 days! Haha but it was totally worth it to see the sunrise and know that we still had the WHOLE day ahead of us.... oh AND watching my aunts basically dying from more recreational activity than they had in a while was very funny! Of course I would have been right in their position if I hadn't started working out a month or so earlier. That started season of working out though and I have to say good luck to them for the rest!  After that Me and my Aunt Stefanie went to a house of the woman she's counseling and we had this awesome Beth Moore lesson. I also got to talk to her mom who is a Serious bird collector/lover and it was really awesome hearing her passion for them and more about them in general. I love birds, but I love what they represent more.  Keeping them as a pet and putting them in a cage would go against everything I love about them, so I choose to admire from afar. After leaving, we then went to Goodwill because.... they were having 50% off of EVERYTHING! I just love when I'm in Indy for those days! I got this really cute shirt and yellow overalls! The last big event that took place was going to an improv comedy show her friends from church were a part of (the group) and putting on. It took place at this really great coffee house where all proceeds go to some sort of cause and all the workers there are volunteers! How awesome is that!? Well it was really funny, especially meeting this son and father (who sat at the table with us)... they were completely born without any sort of idea about what embarrassment is! :) soo funny! I also got to go to the animal shelter which was just across the street for a while and take really cute pictures of cute little puppies and birds ( I wanted to set them all free). The end of the night was very relaxing watching Tv with my aunt and (24 ..yeah!!) 



Sunday was church, nap,  spent maybe 10 minutes in Broadripple and looked at this wonderful vintage store while my aunt picked up my cousin, Aravinds, pottery (piggy bank), spending time with some of my other family members, went back to Aunt Stefs and did a little homework and whined till I had to leave, and then left. It was a great weekend and now it's Thursday and I'm looking forward to going home and working with my mom in the store. This week has been a little stressful but the comfort of home always takes that away.
