Hiring Out
A couple of Sundays ago, we woke up and decided to become landscape architects. After multiple trips to three retailers and way too many holes dug (Steve assured me I would not break the shovel even though I know I was close...), 31 bushes are now apart of our yard!

Charlotte Street Outing
Each year on Easter Eve, my brother and sister-in-law along with their neighbors have a Charlotte St. Easter Egg Hunt.
It's hilarious to watch them search through multiple yards searching for eggs.
The Charlotte Street clan. The big kids are always so helpful with helping the little kids find eggs.
Evan the Easter Bunny (missing a sock).
Nate and Evan enjoying the fruits of their labor.

Big 12's
The Big 12's were back in KC last weekend. Of course, ISU was out of the tournament Wednesday night, but that didn't stop the fun...
Lindsey and Joe at the Embassy Suites happy hour.
Jeff and JR.
Clint and me.
Steve doing his "get me out the picture" dance.
At a very crowded "P&L" (with our flipping off friend).

Me staying on the PBR bull for what I thought seemed like a pretty impressive time (even though it was probably only seconds).

Chow
Last week in KC was Restaurant Week. Around 100 restaurants participated by serving prix fixe menus. And we took full advantage. We ate. A lot.
On Friday night we went down the street to Aixois which is a local french restaurant.
On Saturday night we visited a restaurant from our home state that is located on the edge of the good ole' P&L District. We feasted at 801 Steak & Chophouse.
To say we were fuller than full was an understatement. But we weren't too full to stop for pizza on Sunday at another Iowa based venue; The Other Place. OP pizza is just to hard to pass up.

The Penthouse
On Saturday night we were included in the wedding and the celebration of a former co-worker of mine (of course, they are both from Iowa -- as we all are in KC).
Their reception was in the space that Steve and I got married in and had our reception in a little over three years ago. It was a bit surreal to be there again but fun to be there again.
Thanks to fun friends, an open bar and a dance floor (that Steve only touched to get to the forementioned bar) a good time was had by all.

Seiler Weekend
After some success with Wii bowling, Steve and I had a real bowling night out Friday night with Steve/Ann/kids and some friends. Steve fared a bit better than I did. I should have been in the next lane with the bumpers.
On Saturday we visited KCK to hit Cabela's and Nebraska Furniture Mart. Both were crazy with people everywhere so no purchases were made. I then wanted to check out Five Guys Burgers so Steve drove around The Legends parking lot looking for a parking space until I got car sick. But it was well worth it because as soon as we walked in I won us large fries!
Saturday night we went to the Andy Warhold exhibit at Union Station. It was a cool exhibit and we each got a free glass of wine after seeing the exhibit.
Free things all around!

Intimates
When I got home the other night, Steve mentioned he had to come home because he was so uncomfortable.
He promptly realized why he felt like he was wearing a sports bra and tight shorts all day. He was wearing his brother's long underwear (they both got them for Xmas) which was a large top and a medium bottoms. We are fairly certain he has ever worn either of those sizes!

Christmas in Iowa
Like many people, our Christmas centered around the weather.
We thankfully made it everywhere (slowly and sometimes white-nuckled in white out conditions) except to Steve's grandpa's in Algona.
It was a whirlwind trip, but we got to spend some time with both of our families.
And Steve got to skin a deer with his dad and brother. Now that's Christmas...

Family Beware
And that's not all of them.
I have no idea how after these presents are loaded in our small car; our luggage and us are going to fit for our "Tour De Iowa".
It may be a close to the dash board kind of ride.

3rd Wedding Anniversary
Steve and I had our 3rd wedding anniversary yesterday on 12/2. It's hard to believe it's been three years since our wedding.
We celebrated with my mom, Ann and the boys by Steve grilling steaks outside during a very chilly night and watching an animated Christmas special!
