Crazy Weekend

I think I am now fully recovered from our crazy weekend! My future brother and sister-in-law got married on Thursday in Kentucky. Kevin and I drove to my parents house (4 hours away) Thursday night and dropped off the Camdizzle and then left from there Friday morning. It was a long trek across Missouri and half of Kentucky, but we made it there before before dark! I even had time for a quick workout in what the hotel fondly called their "fitness center." It was all of a bike, an elliptical, and a treadmill. The reception Saturday wasn't until 5, so we had a family outing to Mammoth Cave National Park.
The cave was pretty cool. Our fancy new camera wanted a little bit more light, but we still got a few decent pictures of one of the Eight Wonders of the World.



Aside from the SUPER grouchy park ranger bringing up the rear, it was a great adventure. Plus walking through the cave and up and down the stairs was a pretty good workout!

The reception was very pretty, and I met a lot of Kevin's relatives on both sides. Several of them are coming to Kansas in 45 days for our wedding too. (Excited face!!!!)




I HAD to have a picture of Kevvy and I all dressed up. Thankfully my future father-in-law obliged! :) 


The weather forecast pretty much said that if we drove back to my parents house Sunday night we would blow away in a tornado never to be seen again, so when my parents agreed to keep Cami we decided to drive back the northerly route which would get us home quicker and safer. The drive home ended up being 14 hours. Ugh! I was trying not to drink too much water so we wouldn't have to stop every hour, and after 10 hours or so I was SO ready to be out of the darn car!
Middle of Missouri and DONE with being on this road trip!

My water provisions for the trip.

All in all it was a good trip. We got home late Sunday night and couldn't sleep, so that was lovely. Monday was one of those days that draggggggggggs on endlessly. Kevin mowed the yard when he got home from work, and I made this awesome sauce omelet.
Today was much better! I'm glad to be back in the swing of things food/exercise wise, but missing my puppy dog!
