Spring Break '08! WOOT!

So this week we celebrate Goshen College Spring Break '08! WOOT! (The woot or woo or yippeee must follow this phrase at all times...in print or verbage!)

So this week-end was the family wedding. Weddings are fun and always interesting. My family cracks me up and never ceases to surprise me. I guess my parents never get out and have never been to a wedding before. My mom is facinated almost obsessed really by groom's cakes! I guess Justin asked her to research this subject for him and research she did. Basically memorized the first link that comes up on google. (This technical step is also an amazing leap for her! Dad possible could have been the one to help with that!)

My dad says at the reception..."We are ready to spring from here as soon as we get Justin (the bestman) loose" Sounds like a jail break! G-ma and pa were getting antsy!

My other fav was Dad again...."Justin is going to have to give a few words or a small speech or something..."
Me- "Dad, you mean a toast?"
Dad- "oh yeah that sounds right"
Anne (my housemate)-"Have your parents ever been to a wedding?"

Grandma was awesome when she tried to eat the table decorations. She thought is was a really hard mint....nope sorry Grandma...in her defense it was on the cake table.. but alas.....not a mint! It was a white stone.
Back to the Spring Break '08! WOOT! It is sister time 24/7! So far it has been great. We went to 27 Dresses. Cute! Then we road tripped it old school style with the Birkeissens again (Jeremy & Kellie & unborn baby & Justin & Jodi & I) "the kids" took a road trip with NO PARENTS to see the Erin at the wonderful Sterling College Campus! Fun times were had out on the town of Lyons as well! I am exhausted and it has only been one day of fun!
I wish vacations never ended!
