Story of Our Weekend

Despite actually remembering to take my camera to my sister's for Easter (yay!), I didn't take a single picture (boo!). Thankfully, my sister's boyfriend Nick took a picture that pretty well sums up our weekend in good ole Webster, SD:


Crazy ridiculous amounts of wind which required the men to don layers and hats as they "manned up" to golf (while the women comfortably sat inside playing some games--another recurring theme of the weekend), and the ever-present booze (the four men may or may not have polished off that 18-pack during nine holes of golf, although Darrell swears most of the cans were blown over at one point or another and subsequently spilled).

In addition to having Easter brunch, we also settled our second annual March Madness bet on Saturday night. As the winners, my sister and Nick got to sit back and relax while everyone else invaded their home and kitchen. Darrell and I, in second, had the next easiest (but certainly not cheapest) job--providing the wine. My brother and his girlfriend impressed with a meal of grilled pork chops, crock-pot corn (unbelievably delicious), garlic bread, and a brownie fruit pizza for dessert. And my poor parents had to slip on their rubber gloves and spend thirty minutes at the sink doing dishes--an even more tedious process than usual since my sister's house doesn't have a dishwasher to help with the little things.

It was a pretty great weekend and certainly nice to be able to just kick back and relax and enjoy a few days off work. Hopefully it'll all be downhill from here into our London trip and the end of the school year!
