A Good Weekend....

....so we went to Southern Indiana this weekend to attend a reunion for my mom's side of the family. The only negative of this is the sheer amount of driving we had to do. It was a lot. The bright side to that was that we got to take my car instead of the van, and I got to drive half-way on Saturday morning.

...the reunion was nice. Fried chicken abounds, as customary in Southern Indiana. *winks* And everyone brought their tastiest dishes to share. I continued my sumo diet that day! It is nice to see everyone from year to year, and it's such a nice time.

....so after the reunion, we went to my parents' house, and two of my brothers, my sister-in-law, my mom, Aaron, and I all played a card game called "Swap!" and did our civic duty to rid my brother of some leftover beer (He'd hosted a bachelor party and they didn't finish off the beer...WHAT?!). I tell you, I haven't laughed as hard or as long in a long time. My baby brother is one of the funniest people I know, and always seems to be the life of any party he attends. We'd actually sequestered him for the night to hang out with him. He always seems to have someone to see or someplace to be.

....so today leaves us back to the grind, and kind of wiped out.

...Four days and counting until my black belt test! Friday night I went to sparring class, and knocked legs with a few people. All the exercise has left me with awesome muscle tone. Too bad I feel the need to hide all the bruises I've acquired!

You are hiding bruises? Does that mean aaron has to search you to find them?
