this past weekend my brother was in the burg for a fraternity conference, so i went down to see him and then bring him back here for a few days of relaxing. he finished up at the conference on sunday morning, so i picked him up for a little double-duty church...we went to the 9:00 service at chapel and then out to peace hill at 11:00. chapel was great, bill did a really nice job with the sermon, and afterwards we got to see alex in action at his internship for a little while.
out at peace hill, everyone was really surprised and excited to see us :) driving up to the church, my brother was like, "whoa, that's a church??", and i think it's safe to say that stunned sentiment continued all the way through the birthday song, haha. afterwards we hung around and ate and talked to people and just generally enjoyed ourselves.
that night, he, alex, and i went to see startrek at the movie tavern and it was AWESOME! first of all, the movie tavern is sweet...$6 student tickets and you can order beer for movie (alex got a cherry coke, but my brother was brave and sampled the movie tavern ale...wouldn't recommend it, haha). second, the movie was sweet and we all really enjoyed it (alex too, i knew he would!).
scott and i drove back monday morning and then spent the afternoon seeing the sights....not true, we actually played diddy kong's quest on super nintendo for like 4 hours and it was awesome, haha, really brought us back to our childhood years. we discovered the lost world and everything! that night, katie and maggie came over to hang out and we enjoyed some excellent 5-5-5 pizzas.
overall, it was a great visit, love my brother lots, and if anyone wants to continue conquering diddy's lost world, i'm game :)
