A productive weekend

Friday I got some yard work done after work, mostly just ripped out four 5 gallon buckets of these stupid bulbs from the lawn and planter boxes. I don’t know how these things got so plentiful. I wonder if I could eat them..

And good news! My grandma’s rhubarb is still alive! I saw its “brains” poking out on saturday after I swept it off.

Saturday my aunt Jackie got married to Shane Golding. There were some tense times when the groom got stuck in traffic and was a good bit late but other than that it went well. I got to see my great grandma for the first time in over 9000 years… That was uh.. nice.. Well it was pretty damn funny. She had a baby doll she was playing with. While the bishop was telling a slightly humorous anecdote she was making noises that I assume were laughter, but we’ll never know for sure — She was laughing her ass off at the doll. The bishop and half the audience was trying to maintain their composure while it sounds like satan is having the time of his life in the room with you. Scary but funny.

Here’s a picture of my brother, grandpa (he is a legendary good guy) and Jackie.

During the whole thing I couldn’t help but feel nervous for them after all I am going to be doing the same thing on thursday… I’m nervous, stoked and not wanting to wear a tux.. But I’ll be cool. hah
