Chocolate Chocolate Everywhere....

This morning was Van and Bonnie(local radio hosts) third annual (i think?) chocolate breakfast. It was free so Rudy and I thought we'd go. My parents were going there too but couldnt stay because the line was massive. As we got there some lady was pulling out of the spot closest to the building so I parked there and stayed in the car with VE while rudy waited out in the cold line. We switched after a while and after an hour of waiting we finally got in. It was much different than I expected and i thought it was going to be a sit down breakfast with like chocolate chip pancakes, chocolate waffles etc....NOPE it was like black friday. Wall to wall people pushing and shoving to get to the different rows of vendors. They all had free samples from chocolate dip to chocolate wine and cheesecake. There were 6,000 people there from 5-9 am. CRAZY. Rudy tried a chocolate bacon brownie...yuck. he hated it. It was fun to get out and go and take Vaughn and she got to eat a few bites and thought that was pretty cool. It was trully insane though. Worse than black friday, worse than the state fair. I am NOT a crowd person so I was ready to leave and just go to perkins but rudy loves those kind of things so he helped lighten my grouchyness.

Vaughn and I hung out with rudy afterwards and then ran some errands in des moines. She was pooped so we came home and she's now resting....resting...not sleeping :(

Gotta go get ready for the trip this weekend. Leaving tomorrow morning I think.
