After we had enough hopping, we had dinner at Coney Island (which was wonderful and fast... both very important when it comes to food and hungry women).
Saturday we of course went tailgating for the Michigan State vs. North Western football game... we will not discuss the outcome. We gorged on fajitas and brownies and of course peach salsa dip. The game was intense and very fun to watch although disappointing none the less.
Saturday night, my friend Traci and I convinced our friend Jess to drive over here from Detroit to run with us (as we are all training for the Detroit Marathon Relay). Jess and Traci are running their leg together which is 5.5 miles. So we needed to invoke a little motivation in Jess (who has been ruthlessly training by herself). We ran three miles in pitch black along the farm roads of Fulton. We even ran into a few marijuana growers by accident... which made us run much faster. Afterwards Jess did not speak to us for a while... but I think we are back on good terms now that she has recovered.
Sunday we had lunch in Vicksburg at my parents house, then Phil had a soccer game to coach at 4. The game was very interesting, it was extremely hot and on top of that, the parents from our team got into a bit of an argument with the refs and almost got kicked out of the game... it was pretty exciting! After the game, we went to Phil's dad's house in Galesburg for dinner (yes we got two free meals that day). Then finally home to study for my exams this week.
Whew... it was an exciting weekend!
Someone did a mosaic on the floor at one of the shops downtown. Very cool!

Parents should be banned from any competetive activity until their kids are 21. I used to hate playing in front of parents. They take it more seriously than the kids.
