Reading Week #3

So Deanna and I ventured out to Barrhead with our friend Christa Preuss. I'm not gonna lie, it was so much fun! When we arrived her mother served us an incredible dinner of carrots, potatoes, ham, salad and buns galore. Then we watched Red Eye with her brothers after dinner. They decided to show us their gymnastic abilities afterwards, which was quite humorous... and slightly impressive. Oh man, then we realized just how horse crazy Christa was as a child. She had books full of horse artwork, horse books, horse everything! She even had the book titled, "The Horse Plan". Oh my goodness! So funny! She had lists of how she could raise money, how she would take care of the horse and her days were each planned out. She even included play time with her hamster Woody. Oh man, that girl had letters to a horse named Stella and goals for her life. The two that stood out the most were: 1. Believe in the magic of your dreams and 2. ALWAY BE A HORSE CRAZY KID!!! Needless to say, we laughed for a very long time.
The next day Christa had a hair appointment so Deanna and I toured Barrhead. It was so much fun. First, we visited the mall, conveniently titled "The Mall". We entered it and were surprised to see that it was really more of a long hallway with four stores in it... if Curves can be included as a store. We were quite impressed, to say the least. Then we had some fun with a tree there...


Deanna and I were heading back to see Christa and who should we see, but Joyce Wierenga shopping with her grandmother. I think she was a bit surprised to see Deanna and I wandering Main Street.
We also visited the greatest burger joint of all time! It's called Ramzi's and it was absolutely divine! I have another picture that I'll add later, but oh man... that was a mean Canadian Burger!
Preuss also showed us around her old high school so we made her pose for a picture. What a hot poster girl.
