High School Musical!!!

As promised, an update from the good twin on our trip to "the burgh". (that's short for Pittsburgh for you slow folks) Oh yes, on June 8th, Jamie and I were off to Pittsburgh for a fun filled weekend with Rachie and Mike and Kemper! It was an adventure from the start. Jaime and i drove straight into the torrential down pour! It was quite scary for a little bit. But by God's grace, we were right near a rest stop and we pulled over and waited it out. It took us over 5 hours to get there...it sucked, but we made the best of it.

This is us driving into the eye of the storm...

When we arrived, the Shipman's were anxiously awaiting our arrival! We stayed up talking FAR to long before we headed to bed.

The next morning we got up and headed to a local park for a fun picnic and games and playing with kemper...or so we thought. we arrived and there we "no pets" signs everywhere. we decided to ignore them at first, but we started feeling guilty so we left and had a nice cookout at the house. Later on we headed out to the city to get a good parking spot! Rach was quite nervous as we so left two hours early! we had PLENTY of time to park and eat at Max and erma's! (well rach and i knew that we had plenty of time, but jaime was quite nervous that we would be late!)

Us at Max and Erma's...boy i love that soup...

Well as you guessed, we arrived right on time! Didn't have to wait at all. We got our seats and moments later the show began. It was a bit cheesy, but i wan't really expecting it not to be. We sang and laughed (alot) and had a great time! Thanks for the tickets Rachie! You are the bestest.

The weekend went by far to quickly for my liking. We went to church the next morning, had ANOTHER cookout, just as good as the first i might add. Then we were back in the car heading home. No rain this time! :)
