Can't I just sleep in?

So the last week, we have been busting our ass and running all over the world. Okay, maybe not so much all over the world, but at least around the continent. We spent last weekend in Omaha. We were there for Sonny's mom's side of the family reunion. It was at the Omaha zoo. It was pretty hot. We stayed with some friends of Sonny's that have three kids: twin girls and a younger son. It was fun. They adore Lukin.

After the reunion, we headed back on Sunday and repacked and got ready for the trip up to Calgary on Monday. As tends to be par for the course, it was in the 90s while we were there. And it should be mentioned that my grandmother does not have any form of air conditioning. Of course not, right?

Although we had fun, even though it was hot. We took one day and just went to a mall just to be in the AC. The next day we went to Lake Louise and Banff. We went out for supper on Wednesday to Red Lobster. That is a whole story in itself, but since I don't know who all reads my blog, I guess it's one I will have to share in person. Oh my goodness. It was quite the ordeal. I don't think Grandma and Nils are planning to eat there again any time soon.

Now I am in Fargo for Girl's weekend. I am pretty tired because we were at Nicole's house last night until almost 2 am. Fun times, fun times. We started the day by getting pedicures and then went to lunch at Olive Garden. Pat Sweeney showed up...ooooohhh, local celebrity. Then we went back to Brenda's place to drop off some cars and take a potty break and then we ventured out to Old Navy and Pet Smart. Amanda wanted to see the kitties, or the kit-tas as she was calling them. Then we had some Cold Stone and dropped Nicole off so she could pick up her place before we ame over. We watched a movie and played some games, and ordered pizza. It was really fun, and no, Sonny we didn't go trolling for airmen. We're a little too old for that whole bar all night scene.

Better go get ready since I am flying out of Grand Forks since their flights today look better than the ones out of Fargo.
