Well we made the never ending drive Friday after work. Since we were already tired from the night before, we made many stops along the way. The drive took us around 10 hours this time, and we finally go to my parents place at 5 am. I couldn’t fall asleep for awhile after because of the amount of caffeine that was in my body. So what do we do? Wake up at 8:30 to go watch Kim’s brothers play soccer. They won the game, and each of them scored at least one goal, so it was worth it. That win put them in the championship game the following day. After the game Kim took a nap while I watched football with my dad and brother Tim. I should have napped, but figured I would be alright at the wedding as long as my second wind kicked in. The wedding was nice, and did not have communion so it was about half the time of a normal catholic wedding. The reception was great! So good seeing all of my family in one place.

The next morning we did wake up and go to the championship soccer game. They ended up winning again, and this time Kim and I both took a nap afterwards. The rest of the night we spent over with Kim’s family playing texas hold’em and celebrating Jason’s birthday.

Monday we hung around with Kim’s family some more, and later on met up with her friend Amy at a bar. We played darts and also chatted with her cousin Katie and her boyfriend Bill. It was a good night!

Yesterday we went to the zoo with one of the new Hais foster kids, Lilly. We also went along with Kim’s aunt who was hauling around 5 more kids. It was a good trip but even more exhausting than the trip to the Omaha zoo. We then met up with all of my high school buddies at a bar and played pool for a few hours. It was very good to catch up with all of them.

Tonight we are going to dinner at Montgomery Inn with some of Kim’s friends. Since I’ve been back I’ve made sure to go to Skyline, LaRosa’s and Penn Station. Looks like I’ve been to all of my favorite places here, so my trip is just about complete.

Tomorrow we are off to Deer Creek Park near Columbus to celebrate Thanksgiving. Then on Friday I’m off to NYC!
