{wednesday}
i wasn't feeling 100%, but i was definitely much better than before and was well enough to sit in the car for 8-9 hours.
we filled up the oil, filled up with gas, grabbed some grub, and hit the road.
about 2 1/2 hours into the drive, the check engine light came on. we stopped in cedar city, got some lunch and went to the car place.
whoops! emily didn't put the oil cap back on! $47 mistake she'll never make again! and about 2 hours later we were back on the road.
{thursday}
first we visited this guy. my grandpa. grandma bonnie died a few weeks ago. mom and her sisters have been spending a lot of time there. he is SO funny. he told us they moved things around in his bedroom. now he can run to his bed if someone is chasing him. pretty funny for an 86 year old!
we took a trip to the courthouse to get our marriage certificate and then visited the social security office to change my name. next i have to register my car in utah and get a utah license with my new name. exciting. but not too exciting because i am so not okay with having a utah driver's license and plates! but, that's what happens when you get married and kicked off the car insurance!
the whole fam + g.ma and blake went out to stonefire to celebrate emily and steven's birthdays.
{friday}
we went to the beach.
mom got a vegetable juicer and made us a lovely vegetable juice blend. it was so good. so nutritious. i want one sooooooo badly and i found a good one at a good price at bed, bath and beyong and we have tons of gift cards still but steven says we don't need it. we do. it's just buying all the produce to use it, which i buy a ton of anyway so...we'll see. it's totally worth it.
erin and mike joined us at maggianos for dinner. they catered our wedding and although we ate the food, we weren't really able to enjoy it fresh, so we used a gift card on friday night. and if you order a classic pasta {i splurged with the gnocchi and steven got some other thing} then you get another classic pasta free to take home! so we got the raviolis and the lasagna.
we drove down with them to their place in ladera ranch. that was our first time seeing their place. so cute. my parents and dana met us down there and we watched steven and mike play tennis. i wasn't allowed to play. but at the end i hit a few balls in my sandals. and then my stomach hurt so i stopped.
dad was being REALLY funny. the 4 of us girls sat on the bench. my dad sat by the fence and we told him we'd make room but then he took out his cell phone and started texting someone. and he texted my mom, "where you guys at?" so we said, "at the tennis courts. where are you?" and then he said, "me too. raise your hands so i can see you." so we did.
then he was pretending to be the sorting hat from harry potter. it was SO fun. GRYYYFFFFFINNNNDOOOOOOR!!!
