Eventful Weekend!

Here's what has happened since I last posted:

Friday, April 19, 2008-Katrina & Adam's Wedding


Saturday, April 19, 2008-Angie & I headed to Lincoln to meet up with Nathan & Kathryn to attend the annual Nebraska Red/White Game.

Memorial Stadium (a couple blocks away while we waited in line to get in)


Pre-game warm ups


Angie & I-this was my first time at Memorial Stadium!


Nathan & Kathryn


As you can see from some of the pics, there were lots of NU fans in attendance. In fact, they said there were over 80,000 fans there. CRAZY!!! After the game, we headed over to Valentino's (pizza for those who don't know) to enjoy the grand buffet. YUM!! It was such a beautiful day that we decided to head to Walmart, buy a Frisbee and then go frolic in the park. After wearing ourselves out, we went back to Nathan's for a couple rounds of cards. And because we hadn't been doing enough, we decided to meet up with a few of Kathryn's friends in downtown Lincoln. It was a busy day, but I believe a good time was had by all!

It's almost Friday, so we'll see what happens this weekend!

Congratulations!!!

My friends, Amy & Ken, welcomed home a little boy this past week on April 10. His name is Joshua Atwood. Isn't that a great name? He's so precious. I was privileged to see the little family on Friday night after work for a bit. Everyone is doing great. No pictures this time, but perhaps next time. Congrats again, Amy & Ken!

O Happy day...

Today is special for 2 reasons:

Reason #1:
Hannah turns 6 today! Happy Birthday! I wish I could be there to give you a big hug and kiss! (I know I used this pic in a earlier post, but it was too cute to pass up) So hard to believe she's 6 already. She's getting bigger and smarter everyday! I LOVE YOU HANNAH!!

And reason #2:
Today is Mom & Dad's 34th Wedding Anniversary! Happy Anniversary! (I couldn't find a pic of them together except for this one from their 33rd Anniversary) I love you guys! Thanks for everything!

One of those days...

It's been one of those days. I woke up at 6:40am this morning. And what time do I start work?....6:15am. I didn't even know what to do first. When I saw what time it was, I was up, ready and out the door as soon as I could. Anyone who knows me, knows I hate being late. It only threw my day off a little, but I managed. Let's just hope it doesn't happen again tomorrow.

Travel anyone?

It's here!!! My very first passport arrived today. Let the traveling begin! (can you tell I'm excited?!) Hopefully, I'll be putting it to good use at the end of the year when some friends and I head out on a cruise!



A weekend spent in Kansas

Two weekends ago, I took a couple days off and spent the weekend in Kansas visiting the family. The purpose of the trip was to see the nieces for their birthdays. Jenna turned one on January 10 and Hannah turns 6 on March 30.

Here are a couple pics from my time there:

We look nothing alike :)
