March 2010 - Kerry's Wedding and our weekend in Galena, IL

Griffin and I went to my cousin Kerry's wedding in Dubuque, IA. It was a fabulous wedding and a great party. Griffin and I stayed at a friend's condo in Galena, IL and had a mini-vacation of our own. It was a wonderful weekend. The weather was beautiful and we were able to spend a lot of timing walking around and enjoying the outdoors. Galena is such a cute town. My brother Ricky and his girlfriend Surhee came for part of the time and we enjoyed spending the time with them as well. We stopped at a popcorn shoppe that had a ton of different flavors and tried a bunch of different ones. I loved the kettle corn and white cheddar popcorn - but stupidly I also tried a hot flavor. I had no idea it would be so hot! I was sweating, coughing, crying and in pain.....it was terrible.

The owner of the popcorn shoppe that gave me the couple of pieces of popcorn that set my mouth on fire. I was coughing and crying - and almost threw up. He felt bad and offered me ice cream and lots of water to help calm my mouth down.
