A little to tough

During the weekend we figured that Will did 20+ hours of driving. Holy Cow I am so tired of driving in that silly car. My bum permanently hurts from sitting that long. Plus now Sierra has been getting me back by making me uncomfortable.

This picture is for Colton... I thought the name was funny.

While Will and I drove to and from the wedding I was not going to sit in jeans the entire way. I wore pj's. I guess that when I am wearing them, with my hair back, and no make-up on I look really friendly. I have never had anyone touch my belly, but I got 2 people touching my belly, and a ridiculous amount of people asking me how far along I was. It was no big deal, but what was it about my attire that made me look more friendly?? I think I just looked really white trash.
Well after the Jelly Belly Factory it was time to go disc golfing. I think Will is going to go crazy during the winter not being able to go. The place we went to was the pebble beach of disc golf. It was not a very nice course, but it was challenging. It was way to challenging for the guys. They struggled to even make par. In fact there are 2 lost discs some where on the course, bummer.
There were some fun holes to play though. One was called the top of the world. You stood on this huge hill. Suzanne and I stood on the bottom of those hills. Thanks for pushing Jason, Suzanne.
I did most of the navigating, but Jason felt left out...
Matt tripped over this tree stump. Suzanne had to re-in act it...
If you notice Jason is even getting into the picture... What goofy pictures we like to take.
Suzanne made a pretty accurate observation while we were driving past the real golf course to the disc golf course. She said that the caliber of people significantly goes down with the 2 sports. I would have to agree. Smoking cigars vs pot... Nice clothes vs hippy clothes... Shaven vs beards...
We finished golfing pretty late and then headed over to Tom and Jill's house (my aunt and uncle). It was pretty weird seeing my cousins grown up. I have not seen them in years. They look like they are doing pretty well from what I can tell.
Jill makes wonderful food. I enjoyed it a lot. While she was making breakfast for us, Tom and Will sat down to a game of chess. Tom has not been beat in a long time, but I guess Will proved that he was a bigger nerd and won. He also won a game of Chinese chess. It was a pretty good game.
Jason entertained himself with just the pawns. Weird, he would not touch the other pieces.
I guess I should say something about the wedding. That was our excuse to go down there in the first place (really Will just wanted to disc golf). The wedding turned out nicely. The reception was good. Her mom did a good job of combining the two cultures (Mormon and non-Mormon). It is always hard to incorporate different cultures into a wedding. Haha, we know first hand. "We are having a tea pouring ceremony? What is that? You get money for it? Heck why not."
After the reception everyone went mini-golfing. It was cold, noisy (there was a band), and I had a headache, so Will and I opted to skip it. I felt bad, but then it happened, Will found his most favorite ice cream in the whole world. Thrifty brand coconut pineapple. It was interesting. I am glad that I convinced him to get it. He keep saying what are we going to do with a half gallon of ice cream. It was the same price for a cold stone, so we will just eat as much as we want and chuck the rest. He LOVED it.
OK this entry is way way way to long. To finish the weekend up we went out to breakfast with my parents and then drove home on Sunday. Will and I got in really late. I didn't have pj's for Jason, so he is wearing one of Mickies shirts. Thanks for watching Jason for us. it made the car ride so much more enjoyable.
Here is my sick little boy. He still has a little cough and snotty nose, but he is a happy kid.

I love Thrifty's ice cream. They are cheap but good. Will and Tracie loved it as a treat. we used to buy one for each of us and then looked at toys. Good memories.
Kristin, thank you for your effort in keeping us informed.

I agree, the reenactment and fake falling pictures are the best:)
