ROAD TRIP!



This past week I took the road trip of my life. I moved to Denver! Craig and I (plus some helpers) packed all of our stuff in Athens into a 16" Penske truck and left last wednesday. We drove to Baton Rouge to stay with Craig's brother Chris and sister-in-law Cassie. We ate some good cajun food and then went to watch Chris do the 9:00 sportscast! Thursday morning we all left Baton Rouge- Craig and I in the Penske and Chris and Cassie in thier car to drive to Texas for their mom's wedding! We got to San Antonio around 8 and loaded even more furniture into the truck b/c craig's mom is moving to chicago so she gave most of her stuff away.
Friday we met up with Craig's brothers and stayed at their uncle's house in Austin. Paul and Jen have a 2 year old who is so cool! Here's Logan and Craig growling at each other...
That afternoon, we went to the biggest liquor store I've ever seen and bought the beer for the reception- all microbrewed. The rehearsal was pretty funny to watch. Cyndy has 3 sons- Chris, Kevin, and Craig- they were her "bridesmaids." Steve has 3 kids also. Anyway, his kids act totally normal, but Craig and brothers were causing as much mayhem as possible. The best part about the wedding was that it was in the high school that Cyndy and Steve both went to!
Here's the angry face at the rehearsal. We ate dinner at an amazing Italian restaurant and then went out in Austin for the night. Here's Craig and I at the actual wedding...
Sunday, we drove to Arlington to put, that's right, even more stuff in the truck. I honestly don't know how it even fit. we made it to Amarillo. I don't know how you can drive for 2 days and still be in texas, but we were. Finally on Monday, we made it to Denver! Here's me driving thru New Mexico. My life is still in boxes, but I did get a job today! I'm gonna be a Teacher's Assistant at a school for kids with behavioral disorders. I start on the 20th! AND I got a Colorado Driver's License today!
