Tucson Trip

Yesterday, Jason, Petey and I took a little road trip down to Tucson. Jason's aunt and cousins live down there who he hadn't seen in a while so we decided to take Petey on his first road trip. He was quite excited and couldn't sit still most of the way there. This was the farthest Mr. Petes had been from his home since we got him.

Whenever we take Petey for car rides he always seems to sit in the same spot. Which is kind of a dangerous spot for everyone in the whole car, but he doesn't seem to mind.

When we arrived at his aunt's house, Petey found a new girlfriend, Sadie. Petey was a little scared of Sadie at first but then it was love. Sadie had fun in the pool while Petey watched. We tried to put him in the pool but he wasn't havin it.

It was really nice to see them and Jason enjoyed catching up with his family. Those are pretty much his only cousins, which is really strange for me since I have like 100. We BBQ hamburgers with smoked Gouda which were delicious and Buffalo Turds. (Grilled Jalapeno Poppers). So good!! Definitely my favorite appetizer! His aunt made artichokes which I hadn't had in a long long time and Jason had for the first time. Mmmm. He didn't really get what was so great about them. But whatever. And then we had Angel Food Cake with strawberries. Yum. We looked at old photos from when Jason was a kid. Those are funny to me considering he hasn't changed one bit since he was born. He still makes the same funny face expressions in pictures from when he was 2. Then we headed home.

It has been kinda stormy here the last couple of weeks and I was able to get a nice Tucson sunset picture as we were leaving his aunts house.

So, one of our main goals to accomplish while being in Tuscon was to go to a place called Eegee's. They serve sandwiches and fries and whatnot. But are known for their fruit slushy things. I can't really even describe them. They're not quite a slushy but more of a creamy smoothie but they aren't. They're shaved ice but really smooth I guess.

Anyway, our friends heard that we were going to Tucson and insisted that we bring back Eegee's. Then Malibu somehow got in the mix and we were going to have an Eegee's Malibu fun night and so we did. We bought $35 worth of Eegee's in 2 giant buckets and drove them all the way home.

Then came the Malibu.

Then came drunkin RockBand and the rest is history. Well kinda. I was actually in bed by 10:30. I was a little pooped from the long day.
