How in the world is it already August? Didn't summer just begin? There are so many things we were going to do this summer and time is just not on our side!
So last week the girls had swim lessons at 4:30. It worked out that Steve was able to pick them up and then if he needed to jet back to work, I got there about 4:30 to watch and take them home. They did so good. Piper is finally learning how to swim and not just be comfortable going under and such. Presley is kicking ass. She had the main lady as her teacher two days and one day she said that Presley was going to be a professional backstroker (which is her best) and the other day she learned how to do the butterfly stroke in no time at all!
Friday night I went to my friend Sarah's house. We haven't seen each other in too long! We hung out and talked and drank and ate and laughed! Oh my, we have a very good time together! Her son, kept wanting to color me pictures of 'chocolate cake and tbone steak' b/c he had learned a song with that in it! Her brothers and sister in laws came over later and we had some more laughs. One of her brothers owns Black Cat Ice Cream in downtown DSM....if you haven't gone, you have to go. So good!!!

Saturday we planned a sisters night out in Omaha. We had so much fun 3 yrs ago when we went and just on a whim decided we needed at least one night to have some more fun. We got to our hotel about 1:30 and before we had even had one drink, we were already crying from laughter.
We went to Billy Froggs first and they had a birthday wheel...well just so happens that Samantha's birthday was 2 days before! She got to spin and got......tequila. Just what we wanted as our first drink!
Eventually we made our way out for dinner. We went to Jams http://www.jamseats.com/ . We were able to get a patio table, the food was SO good! Our waiter was a little slow but overall I really enjoyed it!
They were closing and you could tell they just wanted to clean and get out of there....we didn't let them. At some point Holly was singing to them and got a couple of the waiters to beat box, it was so funny. Then it wasn't funny when I realized one of them was 17 yrs old and I was old enough to be his mother.
We were SO full from dinner, SO FULLLLLL...…..that we were spent! We headed back to the hotel room and were sleeping by 11:30! It was another successful sisters night and we will be doing it again! Thanks Kelsey for stepping in and being our sister for the night!

We sat on the patio for hours chatting and eating. Steve's cousin Kelsey lives in Omaha and was able to come meet us out. She fit right in with us and we had a lot of fun with her!
This is what happens when you give your phone to your sister.
and then she tries to take pictures of me and Samantha.....wow.
We left there and Holly gave this street vendor money to play My Girl....then she danced.
We left dinner and Kelsey left us. We headed over to another bar that she recommended.
