the day after the bbq

sorry we're getting behind on our updates. it happens you know.

so, the day after the birthday bbq, we were trying to find something low key to do. turns out naperville was having a carnival,


so joel, jonathan, emily, and jay loaded up in the mini van to ride some sweet rides.


there we are in naperville, with jonathan dressing, or was he undressing?...


we started by scoping the place out.
hmmm... not too much going on, except...


"the fireball" otherwise known as "the ring of fire" at other carnivals.


the carnie was a large, scary man (as seen in the back taking tickets)
joel offering emily a farewell kiss.


emily not too sure about something--could be the carnie, the ride, or her riding companion.


jon and jay psyched for the excitement.


it went upsidedown, a lot.


see, they're having fun.

after the ride, we walked around some more until we...


followed the banana...


for free jamba juice samples. mmm, fruity.


we found another decent looking ride. there jonathan getting ready.


joel and jay having the time of their lives.
really.

afterwards, we walked to a used bookstore in downtown naperville.


joel reading up on the art of heraldry.


jonathan perusing the sci-fi/fantasy section.


jay, discovering himself.

although not fully satisfied, we decided to head home for lack of other activities. until we saw...


where we could test drive brand new lincolns, and get a free $50 gift certificate to Rhapsody, just for driving their sweet cars. not a bad deal, eh?


its a smooth ride, let me tell you.


emily at the wheel.


jay working his magic.


jonathan's straight thuggin it.

so now we have a $200 tab at Rhapsody for the 4 of us. that episode will surely be blog-worthy, so stay tuned.

after naperville, we stopped by Whole Foods, picked up some corn to grill, and went home for another bbq. gotta take advantage of the weather. it won't be warm enough for too much longer.

the end.
