Finishing up the detail for the weekend...

Alright, I'm going to finish up writing about the weekend in California so that I can get onto blogging about bigger and better things.  Or at least things I feel like blogging about.  It's really fair to saying the things are bigger and better.

So... Saturday.  Woke up, hit up the hot tub, the pool, and read a bit more in the "Have a Little Faith" book.  I think I might actually talk about that book a little bit in a future post, a lot of cool things are brought up throughout the book.

Anyway, Maria got up early enough for us to walk to a Vons and buy something for her tooth which was hurting, and some breakfast.  Doughnuts, OJ, & Apples.  Mmmmmm.  We eventually all got ready, and headed to San Diego to watch BYU take on SDSU at Qualcomm Stadium.

The drive was nice.  We were in and out of the fog that comes off the ocean, and it looked pretty cool.  The weather was really nice too.  Not super hot, and definitely not cold.   It was perfect.  At the stadium, it was nice and sunny, but again, not hot like when Greg and I went to UCLA vs Fresno State last year. That game was the worst.

The game was too close for comfort, but BYU ended up pulling it out by 10.  Go Cougars!  Greg was in charge of the, "That's another Cougar, First Down" cheer, so that was pretty exciting.  Haha.  He had to be reminded a few times throughout to say it, but, he got most of them. 

After the game, we found our way back to Costa Mesa (After going 20 miles out of our way and back, because I made a mistake on what road to take), we picked up Jamie, and we went to dinner at "I love sushi"  That place was really good.  Afterwards, we went back to Jamie's.

So, as we are driving up, there are these big trees that I noticed the day before.  They looked weird to me.  It was like they were regular trees with all of the bark peeled off.   I could see little parts where the bark was there, but it just wasn't really anywhere else on the tree.  I said, "This is really weird, those trees look bald to me"  To which Greg quickly came back with, "Yeah, and they are looking down through the sunroof, thinking, yeah, that boy looks bald to me."

Oh man.  I about died laughing.  That was so good.  We were joking around at Jamie's for a while, then went to bed.

Sunday was awesome.  I got up early again, and was able to read in the hot tub for a little while.  After we were all up, we went to Huntington Beach to eat dinner with my Aunt, Uncle, Cousin, and Grandma.  That was awesome.  Great food, and it was refreshing to spend a little time with my family.

After that, we hit the road.  We had to stop at Disneyland to pick up Greg's sister's phone she lost there, and then it was the long 10 hour drive back.  We stopped in Primm, NV to ride the giant rollercoaster.  We got two rides for one.  Just FYI, the front on that coaster is better than the back.  And it's good.  If you drive through Primm, stop at the coaster.  Awesome.

The rest of the drive was filled with us joking around, Ali and Maria sleeping, and Greg and I acting crazy because we were sleepy, but neither of us were going to sleep.  We came up with a new version of "What's my Age Again" by Blink-182.  Basically, we just kept singing "She took off my pants" instead of the actual words. It sounds childish now, but, had you been there, you would have been singing along.  It just made sense then.

That's the trip.  Maybe I'm not writing this with a ton of enthusiasm, but, boy, was it great.  I wish I could go on a trip like that every weekend, however, I was pretty exhausted when I got back.  I'm just barely feeling like I have recovered.
