A day of fun.

Today was a day of fun.  I woke up feeling refreshed, having got a better nights sleep than the night before.  Made breakfast for Preslie and I, and then got ourselves showered and ready to head out.  First off, we had to go return our crappy rental car to Enterprise, and pick up my car again.  Larry H Miller Collision was so generous when they booked my rental, I was lucky enough to get a Toyota Yaris.  This car was smaller than the car I drove around in Ireland, and that's saying something.  Not amused.

Preslie, as usual, has been cracking me up all day long.  When we first arrived at Enterprise to return the Yaris, there was a few people there, so we went to sit down while we waited to catch a ride over to get my car.  I sat down in the chair, and then Preslie climbed up on my lap.  As she scooted over on my leg, the chair let out this funny squeek sound.  Preslie looked up at me with this embarrassed and annoyed face, and said, "Dad.  Are you serious?"  Apparently she thought the sound came from my butt, and was not amused.  ha ha ha

Next, we headed over to Seven Peaks, and played our guts out for almost 6 hours.  It was tons of fun.  Expensive, but fun.  One particularly annoying thing that happened though, was I had bought lunch for us, including 2 sodas for Preslie and I.  After eating, we left the nearly full drinks by our towels and stuff, then went to ride a slide really quick.  We came back about 20 minutes later, and I discovered my drink was lidless, and empty.  It was upright, and had not spilled either.  Someone had taken the lid off my soda and drank all of my Dr. Pepper!  What a jerk. 

When we left, I had a call from Preslie's Mom, saying she was school shopping for all the girls, and wanted me to meet them at the mall to give her money.  When we met up, she told me that her Mom was having a little family get together, and I should come and bring Preslie.  Hmm.  Well, let's just say that was the proposed alternative to what was suggested.  I ended up heading over there with Preslie, and for the first time in a while, was able to see all of the girls.  It was really nice.  I also got to see some of the ex-in-laws I haven't seen for awhile, who were surprisingly polite for the most part.  We ate dinner there, and then left around 8pm so we could make it to Provo to see Joel Pack & the Pops play a show at Velour.  It was nice to see Joel, Ryan, and Rob again. 

All in all, it has been an eventful day, and lots of fun was had.  Preslie is asleep, and now I think I shall do the same.
