[IDOS, Visitors & Dance, Dance Revolution]

Saturday 3/15/08

~IDOS~
Shawn was in the World Campionship Dutch Oven Cookoff finals today which were held at the Sportsman Expo at the South Town Expo Center. He cooked on Thursday and made it to the finals today. His partner was Ted Cromer. It should of been Rains because they cooked together when qualifying but Rains didn't want to go to World's as a contestant, he went as volunteer instead. Shawn and Ted didn't place but had fun anyway (the $5000 grand prize would of been nice though!!). On Thursday they cooked Prime Rib (Shawn's dish) and a bread and dessert (Ted's dishes). On Saturday they cooked ...

~VISITORS~
Shawn's parents have been visiting since Thursday and have spent their days at the expo. Shane, Jamie (Shawn's sister) and their kids came down Saturday evening. When they were on their way, they called Ross and Angie (Shawn's parents) and told them that Shane's parents wouldn't take their dog so they had to bring her. Yeah, I'm NOT very happy about this at all!!! I totally understand that they are in a tough situation and thought they had it taken care of and then it fell through. What upsets us (Shawn and I) the most is that they didn't even have the courtesy to call and talked to us about it. They had to call and have mommy and daddy take care of it. It's ridiculous and frustrating. Oh well, it's not worth making it into a big issue. We are glad they came to visit and stay with us (which they've never done before) and we'll have a great time in spite of a dog in the house! I'm just glad she's a small dog and doesn't bark. Anyway after the cookoff we met them at Salsa Ledos...yummy!!

To accommodate for our visitors both Nic and Justin slept on the Love Sacs along with Jake. Aubry and Taylor slept on the sofa bed, Shane and Jamie in Nic's room, and Ross and Angie in Justin's room. My boys are sweeties for giving up their rooms for guests. Thanks boys!

~Dance, Dance Revolution~
When we got home and we played Dance, Dance Revolution on the Wii. I just had Justin pick this up for me on Thursday so it was the first time we played our game. Too fun and SOOO funny! Shawn's a goofball and was just dancing all over the place, not even following the steps of the game. In all his craziness, he actually hit several steps! Aubry took a video of it on her phone. I should see if she can put it on YouTube or something so I can post it here! All I got were these photos:
