Can you hear the squeals?

Do guinea pigs squeal? Well, P and I went with Pa, Holly and family friends the Riders to a Ecuadorian meal at Mi Patria on Friday night. Susie and David ordered the cuy (a Peruvian delicacy)! I tried a small bite, kinda like chicken.....only not.


It was great to try a new restaurant though and wonderful to hang out with everyone!




Saturday we traveled to Earlham to watch the Iowa football game and have our family fantasy football draft! The Iowa game resulted in a victory! Go Hawks! Presley and Ava played good together all afternoon!


Steve is in 3 fantasy football leagues this year....oh man. He did receive the traveling trophy for the league that he won last year.


Yes, it is as obnoxious as it looks! He wants to make a shelf to display it. (hopefully he's thinking in the garage?)




Sunday we decided to have a day of busy-ness! We got SO much done around the house! All the normal cleaning, 6 loads of laundry, I went thru all of P's clothes and boxed up all the ones she has grown out of, deep cleaned the kitchen, a trip to the grocery store. Plus, more work in the basement! (blinds up, hung the TV, got half of the new couch (the other half is on back order), railing up, door knobs on, finished painting, plus Steve made a floating shelf for underneath the TV)






Today, we wanted to have some time outside! Since we were so busy yesterday we didn't get to enjoy very much of the awesome weather we are having!


We decided to head out to Jordan Creek. We had a nice lunch on the patio at Bravo and walked around the pond.




Then while P had her nap (or quiet time), Steve cleaned the garage and I headed to Target for some retail therapy. Presley benefitted the most from this trip, like usual!




Our neighbor and one of P's up and coming BFF's, Bella was outside and Presley was SO excited to play. I love hearing them play and talk to each other! They both had to get their babies and strollers and were pushing them around the yard! Adorable!




If we continue to live next door to each other, these two are going to be trouble! :)
