This weekend was pretty fun for a trip to Fresno. It is one of the few trips we have made in which we do not have a holiday or family reunion to go to. Also, I was finally able to ride Amtrak without getting sick!
Saturday was a relaxing day that began kind of lazy. After a late breakfast, G, his Grandma, and me headed to a Japanese garden in Fresno at a huge park. We walked all around the beautiful koi pond and plants for about an hour, then walked around another portion of the park as well. The exercise was great and made me not feel as guilt about gobbling up beef stew for dinner. Dinner was fun because G' aunt and uncle came over and we were able to talk with them for a few hours.
On Sunday, we went out to breakfast with G's grandma, two aunts and uncle. After breakfast, G's aunt and grandma took us to the convention center in Fresno, where we boarded a shuttle to take us to the construction site of an Extreme Makeover house. There were a ton of people there watching over 50 people construct the new house. Of course, G was critiquing everything, and his aunt was a bit annoyed, but he couldn't help it! We saw Ty Pennington film a bit for the show, and many of the women there were going nuts for him. I have never seen the show and I only know Ty for getting a DUI somewhere in Hollywood, so it wasn't that big of a deal to me. However, it was neat to see a house being constructed so fast and for a good cause. After watching the construction for a while, we headed back to G's grandma's house to get our luggage and head back to the train station. We were both happy to be home last night without any Amtrak mishaps!
