Last weekend we loaded up the fam and went out to Des Moines for what was supposed to be Nick's surprise bday party, he ended up finding out!! Needless to say we had a blast. It all started with a spotting of the weiner mobile, Nick was uber excited! Friday night we were able to go out to dinner with Nick's mom and sisters Bridget and Katie and their significant others which was a lot of fun and involved alot of Margaritas. Cally stayed behind and got to spend the evening with her cousins, she was in heaven! The next morning I got a pleasant surprise when I ran Dam to Dam (my fav race), I met up with one of my old running friends from Iowa City whom I haven't seen in years and we ran almost 1/2 the race together, it was awesome, such a pleasant surprise, I love running friends they are the best!! Now after the race involoved some rather unpleasant adventures which I will not indulge you in at this time if you would like details just call and I will fill you in! Nick ran the 5k with our brother in law and did great! I was then off to the lake for the party! A bunch of our dear friends made the trip which was unbeleivable Cally's godparents even flew in from Denver for the party and Nick was so excited! We don't get out much with friends anymore so it is so nice spending time with them when we do!!! We are so lucky to have such great friends and family. God truely blessed us with a perfect day for being out on the lake so we were able to boat, jet ski, tube and even water ski a little. The next morning the boys all enjoyed a great game of best ball while the girls stayed behind and took the kiddos to the park! All in all the weekend was perfect thank you to everyone, you all went to above and beyond in making sure the weekend was special for us, we love you!
