Par-tay-licious Times in Vancouver


Yes! Celebrating historical figures means government buildings close down, and government buildings closing down means schools are closed, schools being closed means days off, and what else could that mean?

R~o~a~d t~r~i~p!!

Yes, in celebration of good ‘ol Martin Luther King Jr, we decided to take a trip down to Vancouver to see the Riddles. Well, Daniel said he just wanted to see Katy and needed someone to keep him awake, but we all know he really wanted us along. ;)

After a couple hours of driving we arrived safely, and when we all eventually settled down we played a game of Settlers. I have a strong aversion to a similar game called Carcassonne and I was told I would hate it, but it turned out that Settlers was much more to my preference. Soon after we finished the game a veritable FEAST of Taco Bell was graciously brought back by Mrs. Riddle, such the likes of which I had never seen and probably will not see again for a good few years to come. Needless to say we had enough left over to feed another person or two.

Not much specifically worth mentioning after that… There was a healthy amount of talking, a bunch of pizza for dinner, “we” messed up Lisa Dawn’s bed as tradition has apparently stated, and we watched American Pickers somewhere at the end. Daniel got a slick lightsaber that is actually durable enough to fight with (a gift from Katy, I believe?) I might get one myself, but they cost about as much as any other sparring sword, which is more than your average low end decorative sword. Still, it lights up and you can hit people with it. How cool is that?

Attendees were Daniel, Anna, April, Jesse and I, for those interested. Matt couldn’t make it. D=


The most exciting couple since 1930.


The stars of today’s show, the inspiration for the trip, Lisa Dawn and Katy (respectively).


Plenty of snacks to go around.


As if the twenty pounds of burritos wasn’t enough. We couldn’t figure out why there were so many cups!


I was amused.


Koos Koos The Foos Moose is on the Loose! (formally known as Herschel)


Katy rolled up in the bed.

Scandal rolled up in the bed.


I absolutely love this sink. It’s legit.


There are actually two songs for this week as they’re fairly short.

-Gitchi Gitci Goo from Phineas and Ferb

-Busted from Phineas and Ferb

Phineas and Ferb songs hold a special place in the gang’s heart, so it was only proper.
