Bad blogger...

I wish I had some great excuse for my absence lately, but I don't I've thought about blogging, but instead I've been flat out lazy. So I have a lot to update!

Last weekend, we had our first house guests (other than fam:). Our friends from high school, Tim and Kelsie came up from Wichita. They wanted the full Lawrence experience, since they've never been in Lawrence longer than a drive through - I know, I feel sorry for them too having missed out on such a great place! ;)
 So of course, we started the weekend by finishing the KU game at our house. Then we headed downtown for some margaritas and mexican food - yumm! Next we headed to the Barrel House - probably our fav bar in Lawrence. (Keep in mind we only 'go out' when we have company.) Anyways, it is a dueling piano bar, the Husband enjoys challenging their knowledge by requesting random songs from the 80's and 90's. Very entertaining!

Saturday was a day full of golf. In the morning, the Husband's played disc golf while Kelsie and I took Miss Bailey on a walk then headed downtown to find Kelsie a KU shirt :) After lunch we headed to DeSoto to what we will call an 'interesting' golf course. Basically, every time you teed off, you were hitting the ball at the group behind you - yeah, that makes perfect sense. Unfortunately, it was FREEZING and the sun refused to come out!  The best part of golfing was watching Nathan hit attempt to hit the ball along the tree line. Keep in mind he isn't a golfer, so he was using Tim's clubs which are about 2 inches too short. He hit tried to hit the ball about 7 times in a row, but by the 6th hit attempt, he was further back than where he started. He could hear us laughing so hard we were crying, so he kept yelling at us to stop which only made us laugh louder and cry more! Oh so much fun - sorry it was at your expense hubbs :)


Sorry my computer is being SUPER cool and it won't let me rotate the pictures...
Here are some of the better shots of the day...

The sun finally peeped through around dinner, so we grilled at home and watched the KU game for dinner. Then we played more golf - SkipBo Golf that is.
 While the boys enjoyed some whiskey drinks, I concocted a delightful rum drink. Tasted just like wedding punch! Unfortunately a little too much like punch as I don't remember much else about the night other than making a McD's run at some point and getting our pic taken while there, so I'd say we had fun!
Sunday we headed to Free State Brewery for lunch before they headed back to Wichita. We had a GREAT weekend and can't wait to head to Wichita to see their new house! Too bad we don't live closer!
