Day 42: Vancouver, Langley, Abbotsford, BC

Saturday, Panther playoff day!
I used to play flag football for a cool team called the Panthers. 
It was super fun. 
So I watched them play in the finals today. What a great weekend to come up! All those girls and their respective men and coaches are so great. They played like champs and team 1.0 just lost the final. 2nd overall but 1st in coolness and overall awesomeness in my books. 

Post-playoffs, off to Langley to see my dear friends Jennifer Jacobson and Rika Nel plus others who happened to be up. We had dinner at the Fort Pub, headed off to a haunted corn maze in Abby, got chased by creepers with "chainsaws" (when I finally had been chased enough times to look at who was chasing me, I think they had leafblowers, but man those guys could sprint!!), won the acronym from letters hidden around the maze (Hog Handler...weirdest answer ever), ate our suckers that we got for winning, went to the petting zoo, slid down the crazy slides, went to Timmy Ho's, chatted with Jenny and Riks and Kraakmos and new friends, went back to Jen's in Walnut Grove and had a sleepover in her cozy big bed. 

(I've never really liked sleeping with people next to me or near me; I always gravitated away from everyone during sleepovers as a kid. Breathing people keep me up I guess and it took MONTHS (like 6) after we got married to get used to sleeping with Bryan in my bed (the little children pitter pattering and crying above our heads on the 5'6" ceilings/their floor also may have contributed). Jen, however, was my roommate (small rooms) at TWU for 3 years, and is thus an exception to the rule. Plus, she always has a really comfy mattress, pillows and blankets.)
