2019

We woke up, cleaned from the night before and got ready for more people to come over. Jordan and Alli came over to watch the Hawkeye bowl game and then we had some other neighbors from down the street come over with their kids too.

Presley friend Leah stayed until the end of the game so Presley was occupied and Juliana is the same age as Piper and they all kept her little brother Rowan occupied and happy in the basement while we watch the game. And it was a good game! :)

That evening we hung out. I think we were all tired. I was lucky that I had Wednesday off too since the girls didn't have school. We met my mom and Boston at the Ninja Gym about noon to waste an hour. It is such a nice, little place for them to run off energy that doesn't cost that much either!

After that we all went to the mall to get some ice cream and then the girls and I ran to Target to pick up some stuff. I really prefer going to Target by myself and it has been too long since I've done that, I think I'm due! :)

Friday the 4th, Steve headed to The Boat House after work and the girls and I came home. Before I knew it Sarah, Carver and Cohen were over hanging out before they went to dinner, however they never left for dinner. The kids were playing good and Sarah and I can and do talk for hours and time just got away from us. We got some snacks out, made some popcorn. Steve got home, Kyle and Collins headed over about 9 and then before you know it....it was midnight! All the kids were still behaving and time went fast!! and we had a really good time!

But, we had to get up the next morning to leave for Omaha with Holly and Jerry and both Steve and I were DRAGGING!!!! We had planned this weekend for a while now, as a birthday get together for Holly's birthday back in December. We headed out about 10:30 after dropping the girls (and Rocky) off at my parents house.

We stopped at Texas Roadhouse and saw Cross who was working. We had some appetizers and drinks and then headed to our hotel. The weather was perfect so we were able to walk around with no worries and enjoy some different places. And just like the last time we were there, we spent way too much time at Billy Frogs but we still had a good time!

Steve's cousin Kelsey met us out and we did dinner at Jams (again) and again, it was SO good! Highly recommend! After dinner we headed to a brewery around the corner and enjoyed a couple more drinks. After that we were all winding down and getting tired.

We headed back to the hotel about 11 and got up the next morning, had some breakfast and headed home! Thankfully when we got home with the girls, they were good and playing really well together, so I curled up on the chair and took a quick nap!
