Good Times With The Parents

Jeremy and I are now alone again :(. Mom and Dad have left. We are ready for someone else to come and see us now!! (hint, hint). We had a great time this weekend with mom and dad. They were only here for a really short time, but we made the best of it! They got here Saturday around noon, so we went to Indy to pick them up and then came back to Huntington. Dad had heard that I had been cooking, so we stayed at the apartment for dinner. Mom and I made oven baked chicken, greenbean casserole and rice. We had to make the rice because we knew dad wouldn't eat the greenbeans. Anyways, it was really fun getting to cook with mom.

So....after we cleaned up, we went to Ft. Wayne to start on my hunt for Target again. (I have been hunting for 3 weeks now) I will try to not go on and on about this, but it really is ridiculous how hard it is to find a target in that city. So as lots of you know, Target is by far my favorite place to shop. And since they don't have one in Huntington, you would think I could find one in Ft Wayne. Just so everybody knows, if you put in Target+Ft Wayne, Indiana on the internet, it brings up three Targets, two of which ARE CLOSED!! Well anyways, the first target we arrived at looked as if it has been closed for years. Dad thought we should stop and ask someone for directions to a different one. And that woman proceeded to give us directions to a target that is being remodeled and is not open either. So we went to JC Penney's and bought curtains that block out the light (the whole reason we were looking for a target in the first place). My loving father said we were not going back until he found me a target, so the woman at Penney's gave jeremy and dad directions to the only target left. This one was open. I did not get anything, but it was nice to finally step into a target again. Well so much for not going on and on and on about that, but it was quite stressful. Between dad not having his glasses yet, therefore not being able to read the map, and Jeremy driving and deciding he can go through red lights whenever he wants, mom and I are lucky we even made it back home. But it was quite an adventure, and we really did have a good time. Lots of laughs. (Sorry mom, we didn't make it to the Johnny Appleseed Park).

So anyways, Sunday we played a really intense game of SORRY!, and Jeremy unfortunately won. Although, I see where I get my competitiveness and lack of remorse from when I play games (my mom). After that we headed back to Indy to stay with Liz for the night, since mom and dad's plane left early, early this morning. We were really sad to have them leave, but we were glad they could come for a little bit. We had a great time!! So, if anyone else wants to come and see us, I promise I won't put you through looking for a Target!! :)
