July 4th weekend

July 4th was a memorable weekend! July 3rd is the day the road tripped started. Zach got off work around 2, which gave me about an hour to pack, which is so hectic for a girl to pack! Especially for a weekend with his whole family, I go to make myself look good! Our plan was to leave Powell by 3:30, Zach, his dad Sid, and I. Buuuut Sid got a call for a death in Cody and so Zach and I had to wait for 3 HOURS for his dad. Oh Sid. Oh Sid. Well Sid finally got home and Zach and I loaded up the guns as Sid packed. We head out and of course we had to take another stop in Cody for Sid to buy ammo. I completely blame Sid for how late we were;) We finally drive off to Idaho Falls. Before we even got into Yellowstone, Sid started complaining how it was so hot in the back seat. Zach and I looked at each other as if... well Sid was our kid. Now both Zach and I love Sid don't get us wrong, but him and I were just a tad grumpy. We arrived in Idaho Falls at Zach's grandparents house, with Zach almost killing us once. We unloaded our luggage and figured out where we are going to sleep, Zach's cousin and his girlfriend and Zach and I went to get a Redbox movie and dinner. We couldn't find a maverick anywhere so we thought our next best chance would be Wal-mart. We goofed around in Wal-mart looking for food to eat and got our movie. We didn't want any food there so we thought we would go to a fast food joint. But of course the night before the 4th of July everything was closed. Well except for Burger King! It was nasty but at the time it was delicious! We went back to the house and watched the movie. After the movie we got up and everyone went to bed. The next morning we woke up and it was the 4th of July and we had a big day ahead of us! After breakfast we headed over to a parade which was super fun. I met the rest Zach's family. We went to Pizza Café, took a nap, went to sonic to get a slushy, and tried to eat dinner after a buffet of pizza at lunch. We went to a firework show which was so much fun! we played around in a park with your whole family and got to watch fireworks when it got more dark! After the show we went back to the house and decided to pull an all nighter and play Mario kart. We successfully did that till 5 in the morning. We got yelled at a few times for being a tad too loud.. Mario Kart is to be taken serious though ;) We had to wake up 3 hours later for Zach's cousins, Alerga's baptism. It was an exhausting day and there were quite a lot of naps in between everything we did. We shouldn't have stayed up till 5, how dumb! The next day was our last day and Zach and I went on a mini date before we left Idaho Falls. We went to Buffalo Wild Wings which is my favorite restaurant. Zach is so sweet to take me out before we had to drive 6 hours!

 It was a memorable weekend and the first trip with Zach and meeting his family. I will never ever forget this weekend!
