Friday night I went out to the Carver County Fair. I hadn't been there in years. I used to be in 4-H and I would show my horse there. Back then it was cool to walk around the Midway and meet cute boys. Those days are long gone, well the 4-H part at least, I still like walking the Midway, making friends with the Carnies.
So I went to the Fair and Shannon, Jaime and Cindy were there. Cindy is on the fair board and gets to drive around in a cool golf cart. And she is officially attached to the hip with her new\old boyfriend John.
Jaime also brought her new boyfriend Kevin.
It rained, and that wasn't so great. It was strange being back. Even weirder bumping into people I haven't seen since the day I graduated. Strange indeed.
Saturday was calmer. I spent most of the day relaxing. Until i made some chicken and pie and brought it over to Jodi. Yes, the one and only! We finally were able to meet after all this commenting over blogs. I also got to meet\hold\feed\burp\love baby Jada!
Sunday i spent the day at my parent's house. My parents surprised me with a new grill! They are good people. We took a drive into Hutchinson and played guessing games.
Mother: I'm thinking of a restaurant that begins with the letter W.
Daughter: Olive Garden?
Mother: I said W!
Father: Wally's?
Daughter: How often do you actually ever eat at a restaurant named Wally's?
Mother: Hello, any more guesses?
Daughter: Chilli's!!!!
Mother: I SAID W!!!!
Back at home we made a campfire and grilled and sang songs around the fire. Including the one where my mom played Puff the Magic Dragon on the guitar and my dad and I changed the words to the song. Puff the Magic Doobie. We are nerds. We prefer it that way.
