So I have almost been determined to let Robert do everything on the blog, but I am fast realizing that if I let Robert do everything it is going to be very one sided! So here is my first addendum to try to give the details that he either forgets because he is a boy or conveniently leaves out because they are about him! So here it goes...he did pretty good on the wedding one. I won't add anything else but to add my thanks to everyone for all they did to make it a perfect day and to thank everyone beyond words for taking the time out of busy summer schedules to come! We felt both very lucky and loved to have so many come so thanks a million trillion!
Next...about the the other post. I think he might have tried to cram a little too much into one post because he left out some details that I don't feel good about leaving out. So about the tournament in Richfield first. So here is what really happened there! We played one game on Friday night that went great. They really did play good this tourney. It was fun to watch. After the game we went and stayed at the Apple Tree Inn or something random like that in Richfield. It was a neat place! :) We got in there and it was hotter than...well it was hot! Robert tried to get the little swamp cooler thing going and we tried to go to bed. We both woke up in the middle of the night (well one of the times we woke up) because it was so hot we were sweating. I suggested maybe that we should open the windows because it couldn't be hotter outside than it was in our room and the air flow might help. So Robert got up to open the window to find that the hose thing on the cooler that is supposed to be outside had swung inside and was now blowing all of the hot cooler air back into our room! Brilliant huh?! Well needless to say Robert fixed our problem and by morning I need the blankets to be warm! Then we woke up and got ready to go back to the fields and check out of the motel and low and behold...we have a flat tire. Yea!! So Robert now getting very concerned that he is going to be late for a game, called his team and Chomper came to get him. I was left at the motel with a very flat tire and a Big O across the street (very lucky i know!) So after going across to Big O and played helpless stupid girl with a flat tire :) they came to the motel with me, filled the tire up with air, drove it across the street and fixed me right up. I left Big O $100 dollars poorer but with no flat tire and only half the game over. The tournament was very fun. Robert played especially great and besides winning the tourney, he came away with tournament MVP! Nice detail to leave out huh?! I thought so too. Anyway, he was given a $50 certificate to Zions bank which helped greatly to pay for the new tire! Perfect time to play well and I'm sure that is what he wanted to spend his prize money on! Anyway, very fun and eventful trip already as you can see!
Now the rest of the trip I really don't need to add much more but maybe defend myself a small bit...I did swallow the worm, the proof is too overwhelming to start denying it now, but it did help us pay for our tire and I'm not really that gross I don't think. I couldn't even taste it and it was only a half and $30 bucks when you are poor is a lot of money!! Anyway, the blessing and reunion were fun. We were glad to be able to spend time with everyone. There were lots of fun memories such as the worm, the fire alarm in the middle of the night, the bear or some other big beast outside the cabin door while the adults were trying to play games that really turned out to be Dallin, children running everywhere and having the time of their lives, etc...you just have to love family don't you! We were just sad that the mistress called the next weekend so we couldn't make it to the Petersen Reunion! Maybe next year?! :)

Kari, you guys are so stinkin cute! I love it!
Good Job Robert. You probably told me about the MVP but I guess I forgot.
I love your side of it all Kari! You know that he would have never let us know that he left you with a flat tire to run of to his mistress. As for Roberts Mistress I am Jealous. I may not be an MVP but, I Love to play.

Hey Robert and Kari! I just found your blog off Nick and Danielle's. I am happy that I can keep up with what is going on with you guys now!
I'm so glad you guys got a blog! We all need to go to dinner sometime again.
I, too, love your side of the story, Kari. Right now $30 sounds like pretty good money. I'm sure it was worth it. However, I still don't think I could do it.
