Easter Weekend

One of the (many) great things about going to a Christian college is getting Good Friday off and the Monday after Easter off.
On Thursday, I left campus with Kelly and Keaton and the drive was gorgeous. A perfect day.
On Friday, Mom and I drove to La Crosse to see the fam. We had reservations at Boot Hill and here was the menu board:
Have any of you eaten Totchos? Let me know how that went for you. Also, this sign was in the bathroom:
Boot Hill used to be a rubber mill where my great grandma worked, but now it's kind of a multipurpose building. My grandparent's neighbor paints amazing murals on the walls of the building but I didn't take any photos! Dang it. 
Friday night I watched a movie with my aunt and uncle. Have you ever heard of Take Me Home? It was pretty good! I think it's on Netflix.
On Saturday, Grandma made an amazing lunch. So delicious.

Also, those bunny napkin holders- she made those! She's a rockstar. We definitely missed Kayla, Ben, and Dad. 
After lunch settled, we went to the roller rink. I'm more of an inline skates or roller blades kinda gal, but Julie, James, and Joe opted for roller skates. Let me tell you, roller rinks have not changed one bit. They are filled with 8th graders wearing DC shoes t-shirts who are "in love" with their girlfriends who wear too much eyeliner. Also, the carpeting has not changed. 


Saturday night I got to hang out with my friend Andrew. We went to Root Note which is a very cool spot. It had a really sweet vibe. Then we drove past the house he is moving into this very month, and then we went to Riverside park and walked around. It was a lot of fun, and I can't wait to work with Andrew again this summer. Here's a photo of us last summer with Jasmine:

Sunday morning we went to church and I wore these shoes which I talked about here


Turns out, I can't really walk in them. I'm working on it.
When we were back home, I did errands with Dad on Monday morning. I don't like doing errands alone usually, and I do like spending time with my dad. So along I went. There are strange things at Jewel these days. 




What the heck are these things? CRAZY.

This plays the Blackhawks goal signal and lights up and I WANT IT. 

Unnecessary.

This mini-coop had stickers that said "Twilight," "I drive like a Cullen," and "Sexy Mini Cooper." 

Finally, I got this delicious Raspberry Romance smoothie for the road and it was back to campus.
