I'm gonna make sure I'm there next time for sure!!! There was an unexpected trip to the coast today, we left at 10am and we were planning on being back by like 2-3, but we didnt get back until 6 cause of traffic and getting lost in the chaos -.- So things didnt exactly go how I had planned my Sunday.

O well, I'll be there next time!
