so i spent the weekend in connecticut
saturday went to my first wedding, but i barely knew the people. the bride was so cute though. i'll post pics later.
dad told my about his wedding, which i was never told about before..? i guess my mom got stuck in a snow bank with her parents, haha, and my grandma got frantic and got out in the street and started yelling in german, and every one thought she was drunk. so finally some guy escorted my mom to the church, and it was snowing and he didn't want her dress ruined, so he picked her up and carried her into the church, then left. no one knew who he was was... weird huh? but cool. dad says mom barely remembers the wedding though...
then went to my grandmas for the night, she gave me 2 sets of diamond studs with gold mountings.. soo pretty. one's round and one's square. i love. she also gave me this fancy watch, it's really dressy but i like it.
then i had a lovellllly sleep, woke up still full from that wedding... sooooo much food. helped out in the yard, then left.
we went to my other grandparents and had pizza for a bit, my grandma seems to love me more each time she sees me. now she's all pumped for next years prom so she can buy my dress, ha.
then went to my aunt's ice cream business.. best ice cream, guys. hung there for a bit then went on home.
now i'm waiting for mom so we can do out little gift thing. we have a chocolate cake, i got her $40 to a basket case so she can pick out her own vera, and daddy warbucks got her an ipod. which she better let me use til i get my own ;P
while in connecticut i talked to my dad about my driving situation:
i'm getting a truck!
haha. at first i was like, your kidding.. but, he's really into the idea, he's like "colleen had a truck, now we're going to get you a truck, it's good in the snow and it's a good thing for you." and you know, beggers can't be choosers. i think i'll love it. there's still a chance he'll let me buy a car though :p
and he keeps saying i'll be insured the week.. finally. and he's really serious this time, and i'm aware my past 3 months of postings have been saying this :p
we need to find a wholesaler for the two vehicles we're getting rid of so that they can take them away so i
ll have room to park. and we're laying down this stone tile deal to extend the driveway for my parking space. i better have my car/truck come summer.
we were talking about my sisters wedding, my family that is, they were like "wow, that sucks, you need to pay for colleen's weddding then for caitlin's college" and he was like "honestly, i talked to colleen the other day and she said she'd much rather see my money going towards caitlin's college education instead of her wedding" tell me my sister is not the illest. she'll have a sick wedding though.
