Welcome to the Dirty South

Posted by Amy on June 24th, 2009 . Filed under: Family, Photos, Vacation .

Jeff and I made it to South Carolina, after a super crazy chain of events that found us running through the Dulles airport to catch our connecting flight which was already closed up and ready for takeoff. You guys, they LITERALLY opened the door and let us on, and we became “those people” that everyone stared at.

I’m not going to say that the adventure left us unscathed. Let’s just say that it was a VERY good thing that Jeff and I weren’t sitting next to eachother during that connecting flight. I’ll post the whole crazy comedy of errors later, including how I threw Jeff’s boarding pass at him and told him that if he wasn’t back when the flight boarded, I was leaving without him and how our luggage didn’t make it to our final destination.

ANYWAY, we are currently in South Carolina, staying on a hide-a-bed in Jeff’s brother’s living room, our clothes strewn everywhere. They have four kids, and this is just me, but if someone were staying at MY house, the kids would be sleeping on the couch, and the guests would be in a bedroom, but WHATTHEFUCKEVER.

That’s Jeff’s brother Eric, and his lovely wife Wandi. They’ve been good to us, despite the whole SLEEPING IN THE LIVING ROOM thing. They’re pretty damn cute, right?

It is so ridiculously hot here, that I can barely breathe, and any worry about gaining weight while on vacation (I have literally eaten anything fried I can get my hands on) is gone, because I HAVE to be sweating it all out. Seriously. Sweating like a whore in church, I am.

Yesterday was the first day we’ve been out sightseeing, and I took a few pictures for your viewing pleasure:

Tomorrow, all TEN of us pile into two cars and head up to Baltimore for the big wedding we’re here for. I’m sure they’ll be wonderful stories about how well we all got along on the TEN HOUR DRIVE.

XOXO

    ON THE COUCH!? WTF?! Hell to the damn no. If I didn’t have a true guest room and had someone coming to stay, my kid(s) would be told they were having a camp out in the living room! With a tent! And flashlights! And you WILL like it! If not, tough shit!

    On the couch. Pfft.

    You take gorgeous pictures. I must have the name of your camera.

    And, your blog design? Loving it. A lot. I want one. ;)
