Weekend Away

This past weekend Mike and I headed to Branson for a weekend trip. We both needed the time away and had so much fun.

Friday night we ate at Joe's Crab Shack.

Yes my bib says "I love getting crabs."

We played some putt putt at Lost Treasure Golf.

Then we went to the Hollywood Wax Museum.

The outside of the building looked so promising: But the wax figures inside were terrible! We still had a good time laughing and taking pictures though.

Saturday morning we went to the Titanic Museum. It was really neat to see all the real artifacts they had from the Titanic and walk the grand staircase.

We went to a great bar and grill to watch the HOGS play. There were a lot of other Arkansas fans and the view overlooking the lake was beautiful!

They had the best margaritas!

Watching the HOGS beat Georgia!

We spent the rest of the day shopping at the outlet malls and then had dinner at Montana Mike's.

Sunday morning we headed to Silver Dollar City. Mike had never been before. We rode roller coasters, stopped at all the little shops, and had some awesome BBQ there.

Oops- Mike's head got cut off!
Riding the train back to our car.

I so enjoyed the time away with Mike and sure hope that we get to do it more often!

HOGS!

Happy Game Day!!

Today is the HOGS first football game of the season!

WOO PIG SOOIE!!!
We'll be tailgating all day and rooting the HOGS to a victory!

KC Girls Weekend!

A couple of months ago, Abbe started planning a girls weekend up to Kansas City. As soon as I heard the plans I knew I had to go. Saturday morning, we headed up to Paola, Kansas for the Roots Music Festival. We went to listen to Grace Potter and the Nocturnals. It was my first time to see them live and they were amazing! I think it's fair to say we're all hooked and will be at the Tulsa and Ft Smith shows in October!

Sunday morning we made our way into Kansas City for Worlds of Fun. We spent 6 hours there riding rollercoasters and water rides.

We were absolutely exhausted, sunburned, and some of us hurting by the time we got home late Sunday night but it was so worth it! Can't wait to do it again with the girls!

I'm Back!

I hate that I have gone pretty much the whole summer without updating my blog. Between working, keeping up with the house, and spending time with M, I haven't had any interest or time for blogging. The last part of July and most of August is "THE" time of the year at my job and I must say, I'm exhausted from the 60 hour work weeks. Don't get me wrong, I absoultey love my job/position but there have been times this summer I have felt completley stressed out and overwhelmed. That being said I'm excited to say that the "Back To School" season is over as of today! I feel like I can finally breath and get back to my "normal" life. Here's some things we've got planned:

• Eli Young show at the AMP.
• Salon/Spa day this Friday- 2 hour massage, mani/pedi, facial, and haircut.
• Girls weekend in Kansas City.
• First HOG football game of the season.
• THREE day weekend for Labor Day.
• Anniversary trip with M to Branson.
• CCR and Reckless Kelly concert.
• Abbe's birthday camping trip.
