Jae's new hat???

I bought this hat while I was in college. Years ago. Not that I was a heavy boozer, but because Danielle was visiting me and I thought that it would be a hoot to take some pictures in. Well, I kept it. It has moved from several apartments and finally to our house and it was always kept in a box. A couple of weeks ago, as Bill and I were going through some boxes and purging to make room for other things and I came across this hat. Good memories came to mind and I smiled. Then Bill decided that we couldn't throw it away, that it would be great to see Jae use it - with apple juice of course!

Well, we finally got around to having him try it out and of course Jae loved it. He wanted to play with it some more, but unfortunately, the hat does not work so hot. It was probably operator error in putting the straws back correctly..but for some laughs, we took some pictures of Jae. Perhaps one day, we will see this exact same shot again. Who knows?











The following is a picture of me and Danielle with the hat, and yes, that is V8!

A weekend in Omaha, yes, Omaha.

My good friend Danielle is getting married in May! I'm so excited for her. So of course every bride to be needs to have a bridal shower, so I made my way to Omaha for the weekend to celebrate with her.

Danielle's aunt's hosted the shower and it was wonderful. The food was Yum-O (just for you Danielle), the desserts were Yum-O, the hospitality was great, and the guests were fun and nice!

Since many of the bridesmaids had to travel to get to Omaha, we decided to have the bachelorette party the same day. We had dinner at the Melting Pot (the 3 hour dinner) and then headed out for some drinks..and possible dancing! We ended up a place called Naughty. This is a bar that is located right across the street from the reception hotel, so we thought it was our duty to try it out so we could report appropriately to all the guests. Needless to say, it was an entertaining evening.

There was WONDERFUL people watching to be had, we even got our own peep show! We had some drinks and kept it low key.

Here are some pictures from the shower if you're interested.

Bill and I are going to Omaha in May for the wedding, sans kids. Should be a good time.

until next time.
