My family came to visit Kelsey and I for Labor Day Weekend, and we were SUPER busy. Mom, Dad, E.J., and my cousin Jonathan from Seattle came for a weekend full of fun. Friday was the first day of crazy awesomeness. This being Jonathan's first visit to Alaska we wanted to take him to as many Alaskan activities as we could; so we took him to the zoo. Only half of the animals there are from Alaska but we still had a good time. The snow leopard was out for once, and made all sorts of funny faces at us. The tigers were also running around their ginormous cage and giving people a good show. It was one of the best trips to the zoo that Kels and I have had so far; and it was very good that Jonathan got a good show by the animals as well!
On Friday night, mom, dad, Kels, Jonathan and I hoped in the minivan that my parents rented and drove to Mad Myrna's (one of the local gay bars) for the Friday Night Diva Variety Show. We met up with my Aunt Bev and a few other family friends as well. It just happened to be Coronation, and since Jonathan had never been to an Alaska drag show, we were all really into it. Dad gave us lots of singles for the performers. I got Jonathan up on stage, and yes, I ended up on stage too (sadly, not for the first time...). After the show we all danced our booties off and had a good time!
....and we may have paid for it in the morning.
P.S. - Dad, did you ever get your card back from the bar? Just curious...
