color test

Who knew paint colors could reveal a lot about your personality?

So I had this forwarded to me at work and thought it was pretty weak. I mean how could paint colors tell me about myself? Especially when there weren't any off the wall colors to choose from? I'm not that cut and dry. Besides, what does Glidden know about me anyway?

Apparently they know a lot...even a few things I may not be too excited to admit about myself...

Anyway, the link to the color test is below...let me know if it was right on with you or not...my results are posted below...although you should probably take the test before you read my results - don't want to subliminally influence your choices...

chicago

Who knew you could spend an entire weekend in Chicago, with friends, and only have a ton of fun?

**********I've actually posted 2 entries in the same night, you have to read the second one about our fun evening. Just didn't want people to miss it...back to Chicago**************

Went to Chicago for a quick weekend trip and met Jeff and Jodi down there. We also got a chance to see Pete and meet his girlfriend which was a total bonus. We hung out, went to Navy Pier, Millenium Park, the Magnificent Mile, American Girl store, ESPN Zone and much more.

I'm such a HUGE fan of chi-town...I totally loved it. We were on the 14th floor of our hotel and had the greatest view. Some pictures below of our fun outing. Can't wait to go back. The only downside was getting totally killed by the girls playing bowling at ESPN Zone. Jeff and I thought we could handle it, but were totally rocked by them...guess we all get our chances to be humbled...sniff.

Thanks to Jeff and Jodi for meeting us there...

david crowder

Who knew David Crowder Band totally rocks?

Actually, we did...and that's why we all went to the concert tonight at Northridge . It was J, Tay, Nadia and I. Our seats were ok...we were in the fourth row - so close we could see everything...they were the best seats ever! Tons of fun was had by all and Taylor really loved her first concert. What a blast.

We had seen them as the cover band for Third Day (which was totally awesome to say the least - went with Amy and Phil which made it even better), but it was fun to see them as the only band. David even hung around after the concert and talked, signed autographs, and took pictures with anyone that wanted to wait around and see him. It was a very fun night and we had a great time.

On a side note, I sort of skipped White Castle small group to go to the concert...told people we had cancelled it and such...and then I ran into Garrett there also - my co-leader. Kind of funny that we both ditched to go to the concert. We also saw quite a few other Vineyard people so that was really fun...

If you look at the concert ticket, you can see his autograph...as Nadia pointed out in the car on the way home, it's kind of cool that it is a self portrait.

Proof that we actually went below...how cool is that...us and David Crowder...and he told Taylor he liked her glasses...
