Weekend with the Sister/Brothers

The last free weekend that Brandon will have before school starts back up again we decided to take a visit to Gabe and Paulas'. We haven't been there in what seemed like forever. They have done a lot of work on their basement. Which turned out AWESOME!
We got there on Saturday at about 1pm. We hung out and watched the movie Hot Tub Time Machine. So funny. I would recommend it for sure! Brandon and I got to play with Carson. He is such a cutie! We wished we lived closer. Around 7 pm Travis and Lindsey joined the party. We grilled out and had a great supper. Once Carson was asleep we all went to the basement for an awesome game of 2500 first. Then we all played Things in a Box. Such a great game. So fun if alcohol is involved. At 1:30am we all finally went to bed.
The next morning we got up around 10:30am and found out that Carson was up around 6am and very crabby. Once everyone was awake we all played another game of 2500. Then we ate a great meal with everyone. After that we watched Kick Ass. It was not what I was expecting for that movie. Not bad just not really a comedy.
When the movie was over it was time to head out. We went to get the dogs from Manilla and left around 6pm. When we got to the interstate we hit a huge storm! Kind of scary! We drove right into a wall cloud. We got to Sioux City and decided to stop at Nate and Kaylas' for a bit. At 8:45pm we headed for Jefferson. Everything was dark the whole way up there. We didn't have power until 10 or so. Tree branches were down everywhere. Through houses, on the road, it was bad.
What a strange way to end a GREAT weekend with family.
That's all for now. More to come later...
