Long Weekend

Okay.. well let's see.. I worked graveyards last week and then bombed up to Kamloops Friday morning.. had a nap after chatting with my mom and paul and then went for coffee to my grams' house.
That was really nice.. my cousin Trista and her kids were there, my cuz Ryan, then my Auntie Mamie popped by for a bit, and before I left my Auntie Jackie came home so I got to see her. I was there for about 5 hours!
While we were talking my little cousin chloe who is 5 says to her mom Trista .. "I don't clean my room because I'm lazy!"
HAHAH! At least she's honest!
Then after that I went for dinner with Ryan and Doug... met Ry's gf Amanda who I met a few years back and is a sweetie... and got to spend some much needed time with my newly biker-ish cousin! HAH! So weird to see him all tattooed up and riding a Harley!
After a quick dinner I went over to my buddy Paul's house and we went to meet Dustin for coffee. It was good to see them both...even if Dustin's head was all holey! Hehehehe.
Saturday mom and I went to Tristas, did some shopping, went to the casino with Paul, won $$$, went for lunch, then I went over to Liz and Justin's.
It was so awesome.. I got there a bit early and got TONS AND TONS of Hunter huggles! It was so great, he would hug my neck, cuddle in, and then squeeze! It was so amazing! I love cuddle babies :D Then J and L made an amazing dinner, along with the contributions from their friends (gotta love potluck) but Liz's lasagna was AMAZING! The BEST I've had in.. well FOREVER! :D
Then we had a great round of quip it.. "Correct-yo-teeth"!!! HAHAH! oh man.. it's incredible what some people come up with ;)
Then we played Suburbia.. booyah our team won! Even though I was the non-teaching link I sure came up with some good answers.. HAH! Foo-foo berry and green apple indeed!
After everyone left Wendy, Justin, Liz and I got to play Settlers.. OH MAN! What a WICKED game! I love love love it!!! I need to convert my man into a games man :D
I got home a bit late, but it was so worth it.. love you guys!
Then Sunday was a day spent shopping for mom's house... I surprised her with all the goodies I picked up.. we de-cluttered her living room a bit... I felt like I was on some reality realty show and was staging her house :P She loved all of it! Then grams and Auntie Jackie came over for dinner and we had a lovely visit and great food again.
The rest of the night was just spent relaxing, visiting with mom and Paul, and reading.
I left early Monday morning and made it home by 10.. no traffic at all! Gotta love leaving early.
All in all it was a really great visit.. so much better than the last stress filled visit I had. It was great to see all my family.. I miss them and wish I could see them more! If only I had a jet and more $$$ for gas and toll! *don't we all!*
The last few days have been just relaxing.. today Ry was finally off as well so we did a TON of running around and crud. I went to Old Navy and spent a bit of $... good thing I only go there every 2 years or so :D
Anyhoo.. now I'm just wasting time before bed... so.. toodles!
