weekend review.

Yesterday’s road trip to Pullman WA proved to be a great success. It was Craig and I along with my in-laws Mike and Sally and my brother-in-law Cory. The drive was long, the game was cold and I ate more crap than I think I’ve ever eaten in one 24-hour time period (Burger King for breakfast, pizza for lunch, panda express for dinner, plus a million snacks in between… ugh! My inner fat kid loved this trip…my waist line not so much. Gym….here I come!) but it was a fun time and the Beavers won (42-10). AND….not to toot my own horn, but I’m a pretty great travel companion. I’m really good at staying awake while other people are driving and I make up songs and silly games. When Craig and I drove to Whistler BC for our honeymoon I made up rap songs and gave us rap names (“Sweet & Lo” & “C-Flat”). I told Cory (my brother-in-law) that when he gets married he has to marry someone who’s also entertaining on car-trips so that all the pressure isn’t on my shoulders :).
Here are the pics!

Making a stop in Idaho because I’d never been there. My in-laws went out of the way just so that I could see the excitement that is Idaho. We drove less than two miles into the state, but did have lunch there. I was in three states this weekend!
BROTHERS! Cory’s super cute…and still single ladies. Quite the eligible bachelor. If you’d like to be my sister-in-law and are fun on car trips please inquire.

(my mother-in-law was here, but I didn’t have many pictures of her because she got mascara in her eye while driving and her eye was all red. Didn’t think she’d really want that documented on my blog).
WSU probably had less fans than OSU. Here’s one section on their side of the stadium.
1 tank top + 1 long-sleeve shirt + 1 t-shirt + 2 sweathshirts + 1 coat =
Lauren looking like a fat kid in an OSU snuggie. At least I was (sort-of) warm.
Die-hard fans. No snow…but it was like 34 degrees….WAY too cold to be shirtless.
We ♥ football. Him more than me though.
