Road trip to the south.

All the snacks we had for the drive

Wednesday after school it was time for our fall road trip to the South! The first day(Wednesday) we drove through Kansas and after 9 hours of driving we ended up on a hotel half way through Oklahoma. That day I could ad two states to my list of states I have been to.

The next morning we drove to Texas and by noon we were in Dallas where we visited Sara's good friend Janet who made some good barbecue!
After that we went to the hotel where I met Sara's dad and his wife Ginger. Then we went to the rehearsal dinner. The next day(Friday) was the big wedding day!(Sara's youngest brother's wedding)
The bride's dad is a police officer in Dallas, so he took Nico, Brian, Saraand me to the police station and showed us around! It was really cool and I don't think I have seen that many police cars at once..!

Then we had to get ready for the wedding. It wasn't a very traditional wedding. The wedding was hold on a bar with a pretty view of Dallas skyline. The dinner was barbeque which is is the food that Texas is known for. Then there was a big cookie table with lots of homemade cookies. It was yummy! The wedding cake was not one big cake, it was cupcakes. So instead of cutting the first piece of the cake, the bride and groom cut a cupcake in half and smashed it in to each others face! It was really fun!Me and Nico danced all night! It is a tradition in Sara's family to dance "The Chicken Dance", so of course we did that. I have never seen that many dressed up people dance like chickens. Even the bride did it! ;)
Saturday we drove to Louisiana to visit Sara's dad and Ginger. I will write more about that in the next post.
