More Adventures

This past weekend, Rob and I wanted to leave town to spend some alone time together. We both had a very long week so our original plans to go to Texas for the week has been postponed. Instead, Saturday we jumped in the plane and flew to Kansas City for Ethiopian food. It was such a beautiful day to fly. The food was great and the coffee was so yummy.


They brewed our coffee at the table. It was brewed in a vacuum pot.




Of course I want one now. The heat source boils the water and it is syphoned up to the top glass. Once the heat sources is removed it drains in the bottom pot without the coffee grinds. It was a very smooth Ethi coffee.

Sunday we meet up the John and Jill at the zoo! We are excited they now have a zoo membership. We had a fun day!


We have several plans for the next month. Next weekend, Rob will be dodging paint balls at Jared's bachelor party day! I will be at a purse party with Jill! When Rob gets back, the four of us are heading on a road trip!

I am going to a personal shower for Emily the following weekend. Love Wichita is on the 24th and that evening we are having a game night with some friends! Busy busy times!

Jared and Emily's wedding is around the corner also. I am making cream cheese mints for the wedding! Rob is going to take some pictures at the reception and at the castle in Wichita! We are excited for the two of them. God has put another great couple together!

Life is busy but it is good! Looking forward to all of our trips this summer. We are going to the lake Memorial day weekend with a group of friends, Oregon, NYC, My 20 Year high school reunion, and we will also take an anniversary trip. Whew I need a vacation from all our travels!

Spring Time

This morning while driving to work, I noticed how the trees are blooming. Just on Monday they were still brown and dreary. I guess they were still trying to wake up!

With our strange Kansas weather, we have been up in the 80s on Monday in the 40s on Wednesday and today it is suppose to be in the 70s. The weather has really changed my mood. It is like you see the hope and joy bursting out everywhere. God sure makes it pretty in the spring.

Back in Missouri over the weekend, the dogwoods and redbuds were blooming. Oh I love SE Missouri in the spring. My allergies tend to disagree with me!

Well Happy Spring Ya'll! Now get outside and enjoy it before it is 100 degrees out!
