When we left you last we were at a crazy internet café on our way to Nat’s uncle Joe’s house. We did end up making it to Kenosha but Uncle Joe’s was really fun. We had his address and phone number but we couldn’t get a hold of him. Nat had already confirmed with him that we could stay but we couldn’t let him know when we would be there. We got totally lost looking for the house. Nat had been there before so we asked her “does any of this look familiar?” she said “Well, if it was lighter I could see better.” At which point we cracked up.
When we finally found what Nat thought was the house, Jill and I stayed in the car and Nat went to take a look. She didn’t find a note or anything and it looked like no one was home so of course she went inside. Jill and I were left sitting in the car. We didn’t have much faith that this was the right house. While we were sitting there a car pulled up. Jill and I have never met these people and Nat is in the house talk about awkward. We got it all straitened out and we ended up sleeping in a very very very hot room.
Morning finally came and Jill and Nat went out to jump on the “jumpy thing” and I took a shower. When I went outside to join them I found 2 pretty young ladies bouncing on a trampoline covered in bird crap.
The plan for the day was to shop a little in Kenosha then head down to Chicago to meet Zach for lunch. We went to the outlets. We were on a mission from God to find Divine appointments with cheep clothing. Sadly that day it was not to be. NAT IS THE SLOWEST SHOPPER IN THE WORLD!!!! We went to 2 stores in 1 HOUR!!!! She did buy 3 things so I guess its ok. (hear the sarcasm drip off those words) while Nat and I were shopping Jill met her friend Jenny who she played ball with. I’ll let her tell you about that glorious reunion.

When shopping with Natalia, her brother learned that flattery is the best tactic. "You look great in that!" "That color picks up the blue in your eyes!" "Get that one--it's perfect!" As soon as she runs out of money, you're done!
