Deric and I had the best weekend over the 4Th! It was really crazy busy but lots and lots of fun!
So from the beginning! Deric flew in on Monday June 30Th. On the 1st we took our engagement pictures here in Liberty Lake. Thank you so much Heather for taking the time to do those for us! I can't wait to see what they look like! We had a lot of fun taking those, hiking up hills and lots of good kissy pictures!!!
We left for Moses lake on Thursday morning. It was so much fun getting to meet Derics grandparents, aunts and uncles and cousins! I was really nervous at first meeting the family, but they were so loving and made me feel right at home! We had such a good time there! Jet skiing on Moses Lake, tubing (which i think i am still sore from!) and of course playing some cribbage. Which Deric and his family play all the time! I have never seen guys play that game so many times! It took me a while of watching to catch on. But Uncle Steve and I kicked butt on the last night 2 times! Thanks Steve for putting up with me and helping us win!
On the 4Th of July Deric's Dad Eric got married! It was a beautiful wedding! They got married on Deric's grandparents lawn right over the water. It was beautiful, besides the wind. It got really windy, but that didn't stop anything! It was a lot of fun! Eric and Rachel are so cute together! I am so glad that I was there to share in that day! Made me really want Deric and mine wedding date to come sooner! But after a reality check, I a

od at bowling and showed us all up! But Deric took one of the team and got the lowest score, so all of the girls wouldn't feel bad for sucking it up so bad! Thanks babe! Well after we were done bowling, it got warm again, so we all headed home to play outside!

Well after we were done bowling, it got warm again, so we all headed home to play outside! Went tubing again, and playing some catch. Even little 2 year old Justin got to ride on the tube! He was so happy and felt so big riding with Deric and I. It was super cute! He kept telling PaPa to go faster and saying HIT IT!
On Saturday morning we left pretty early to head over the Mt's and go to Seattle to see my sister Katie and her Family. Well the main part was to go to see the Mariners play the Detroit Tigers.
We were able to go to Rain Forest Cafe at South Center for Lunch. It has been a long time since I have been there! It was so much fun to see my Niece Breanna's face when all the animals would make noises, or see her face light up when there would be a thunder storm! After lunch we headed over to an arcade and had a lot of fun! Deric and my brother in law Chris got to ride on go carts, which looks like they had fun in the rain. We got to play a lot of skeet ball and watch my niece go crazy with all the tickets we won for her! 
After the arcade we went to the Mariners game! Deric was super excited! We had awesome seats too! Right by the 1st base line, pretty close to the foul line ,19 seats up! Thank you Katie and Chris for getting the tickets for us all! Lots of people around us were getting balls left and right. We almost caught a T-Shirt , but some kid caught it right in front of me! And I had the amazing garlic fries in my hand and I wasn't about to drop them for a shirt! I did buy my very first Mariners shirt! Deric was very shocked that I haven't ever had one before!
It was an awesome game, kept us on edge the whole time! We did win though! In the 8Th inning we finally got a home run and a runner batted in! Exactly what we needed in time! My niece got totally into the game and was cheering for ChiChi Ro the whole time! He is her favorite! She kept asking me and Uncle Deric where he was, and what he was doing. At the beginning of the game she wanted to know where he was. So I told her that he was in the bathroom getting ready and doing his hair. So she told her mommy that she needed to go the bathroom. When they got there she told her mommy that she didn't need to go potty but she just wanted to make sure he wasn't in the bathroom near us. I thought that was pretty cute!
Needless to say we had a very eventful 4Th of July weekend. Lots of fun meeting Deric's family, well now my new family! I loved everyone there. Its kinda funny cause now all of his aunts and uncles and Grandma text me. Deric is kinda jealous because they don't text him.
Just a little update! 77 DAYS TILL THE WEDDING!!! not that I am counting or anything!
I have lots of pictures, so I am just gonna add them at the end!

Glad you had a fun weekend and are getting to know your future in-laws - - it is always nice to have family you fit right into! (Just like how you made me feel so much a part of your family when I was engaged to Jon over 10 years ago!) We are really looking forward to the wedding- Jon already has the time off. Oh- I also wanted to let you know that if you want there is a Pampered Chef Wedding Registry- so if you want a kitchen like your mom's- that might be a good option for you. Of course- I will TOTALLY not be offended if you decide not to do one- but would love to help you set one up if you want. Anyway- let me know if there is anything you need help with in planning the wedding! We are so happy for you!
It's me again- I was going to email you- but I don't have your email address! Can't believe that - - so can you email me at wilsons1998@msn.com to give me yours? Anyway, I wanted to put MY memories of you- thanks for your post on my blog of your memories of me! Very first- I remember you as a little 10 year old who was so friendly and accepting of me, when everyone else in the family was a little leery of me (after all, I was taking Jon away from Amy C.!). You were so cute and so much fun (and you still are). Then of course there is the many years after that- like you, I will never forget that new years eve! You have been a great sister in law who has always been there for me- and I am SOOO excited for your wedding. You guys look so happy! I can't wait to see you soon too- we will be staying at your house for a whole week from July 25th to August 4th. Can't wait to see what you already have planned. I love you too! If you are ever traveling accross the state and want to detour to Yakima- we would love to have you visit!
