Del 206: Happenings

Thought it was time for a lil update on Del 206. Let’s make a list, shall we?

1. Football games

What’s better than college football games? Well, many things, especially if the team is loosing. HOWEVER. We still support our Flying Dutchmen, even if their record isn’t the best this year.

Best game of the year was Homecoming, and miraculously, we won! This was very exciting, as our record was 1-4 before the game. We were losing all the way up to the fourth quarter and somehow started catching the ball and actually running with it. Amazing.

It was fun times to be had. Especially since we were sitting beside the band and got to cheer along with them.

2. Family Dinners

Erin had the awesome idea that every so often Del 206 should get together to have a family dinner together which one of us would make.

Erin started it off with a lovely lasagna, complete with “206” on it out of cheese.

It was really nice to sit down and chat with the other girls over a glass of wine.
It was my turn to treat next, and I made a family recipe of Macaroni and Cheese Soup. Yummmmmmm.

I obviously screen captured this pic off of FB, but you know what, I’m not changing it. This blog needs to go up!!

I somehow miscalculated the number of noodles needed, and while we did have enough for ourselves, it was extraaaa cheesy, since I still used the same amount of cheese. Oh well! It was tastetastic.

3. Family Pets

After visiting the Ephrata Fair and failing to win a goldfish at it, Sarah and Emily decided to take the matter into their own hands and went to Walmart and bought themselves some fish.

Sarah named her fish Tipsy. Emily named her fish Mervyn.

Little did they know, Tipsy and Mervyn’s lives were to be cut short.
Mervyn died in one day. Tipsy died a week later.

Emily bought herself a new Beta fish named Rupert, which seems to be swimming strong.

The fishbowl is now used for other things.

4. Bar Times=Fun Times

We’ve been making frequent use the local bars in town (read=2). We prefer the classier Batdorf to the dive-bar-esque Corvette, however we don’t discriminate.

That’s our Sarah!

5. Halloween

This weekend is Halloween (and you can be sure we’ll make a follow up post with our costumes!) so we decided to festive-ize our room make painting/permanent markering pumpkins!
