MWBP '09 Volume II
The second installment of the story from last weekend. While the boys were at the cabin Janelle was being surprised on her "girl day" of shopping by cousin Amy with a lunch including her mother, Kris, and Stephanie Paulson. This was included in her ongoing day of shopping, massages, and fun in the big city. Meanwhile the guys woke to another cold but clear and sunny day. After a great breakfast of pancakes, bacon, and eggs wonderfully prepared by one John Weaver and Todd Moore we decided to head into town to see what fun we might be able to run into. (A big thanks to Jesse and Justin for cleaning up after the first prepped meal!) We hit the picturesque town with some light snow falling and decided to hit the first bar we saw, the Old Post Office Saloon to grab a beer to start the day in town, planning to move on from there. Little did I know this was the final destination as upon entering we found a great little spot including darts, 2 nice pool tables, a good music system, and some TVs to catch the Pac-10 basketball games as we enjoyed the company. That was in fact the only place we made it to in town. A total of 16-18 pitchers, many games of pool, some yummy snacks, and a disappointing WSU loss later we were headed back to the cabin for more good times. While at the saloon my dad managed to drop by with friend Dan Nelson to join in a few beers, a few games of pool and general merriment with the "boys". My mom and Mary Nelson also dropped by briefly to check in and get a few quick hugs. It was great to see the parents, however briefly during the Leavenworth adventure. From there it was a quick stop at my favorite cookie shop for some gingerbread snacks and back to the cabin!! The rest of the evening was much as with Friday night including Rock Band, card playing, continued drinking, and overall great times with the crew. More to come!!
