yes, I have to begin this post with some sad news :( I lost my fishy friend, Pedro Klaus Steppe I. He'd been sick for a few days and I had been giving him medicine & stuff but I guess he just couldn't pull through. I had him for 1 year, 7 months, and 2 days.
in other, more happy news, Holiday World was fun. Except that when we got there our tickets were messed up & we had to stand around in the sun outside the park for 30 minutes getting them fixed. But once inside Jacob & I rode (in order) Frightful Falls, Raging Rapids, Pilgrim's Plunge, the Voyage, then headed over to Splashin' Safari for the lazy river, Wildebeest, Bakuli, and Zinga. Then we had pizza for lunch from Jungle Jake's then headed back to the dry stuff and rode Revolution (I did not know the name of that ride until I looked it up, and I LOVE that ride), Paul Revere's Midnight Ride, the Lewis & Clark Trail, and then didn't have much time left so looked in shops, ate ice cream & got fudge to take with us. I got a flower hair accessory thing but it's kinda dumb. it was only $1.79 though so I figured it'd be ok. I wish we had had more time. We tried to do the new stuff/things we love the most. Maybe we'll go again this summer. Then on the way back the bus driver didn't want to go to the Flying J cos it wasn't half way between the park & the Haute, which caused some problems, but oh well. Then we we got back we met up w/Kurt & Steven at bdub's, which was fun. I love those guys & I wish we got to hang out more.
Saturday I slept in! Hung out with Jack all afternoon, then tried to go to Red Lobster w/Jacob's parents but their power was out, so we went to Olive Garden instead. Then went to the Rex game, where I stayed for about 30 minutes then had to go to my concert, which went really well! I had a few solos and I kicked butt. Plus it was 85% Disney music, so you know I was happy :) Then I headed back to the game, which was tied 4-4 in the 8th inning, and remained tied for the next 5 innings until the Rex finally got a run in the 14th! So that was fun.
Sunday went to Red Lobster (for real this time) with my fam and Grandad. Then we headed over to Paris to see Toy Story 3, which made me cry multiple times, including the short beforehand. Oh man those people know how to make a movie. Then more Jack time, then headed to Brazil to eat at the Brazil Grill and stopped by Forest Park & the concert to show Jacob around. Got to hear my daddy play a solo, so that was cool :)
And right now I have to go sign my timesheet before I pick up Mom for an oil change date... how romantic? anyway
