In the Last Few Weeks

Will I have sort of dropped the ball in writing on my blog of the last few weeks. So this post is going to be a bunch of random stuff so I can get all caught up!

 October 22nd weekend
Neal and I headed down to Oklahoma to visit my brother Thomas and his wife Lindsey. That weekend her family was putting on this huge bbq. On Saturday morning we just hung around helped make some dessert items for the bbq, we made Puppy Chow and Oreo bonbons. Than when we were on our way the clouds were getting bigger and darker, and we were just hoping that the rain would hold off. But at last it did not. It pored and pored, finally there was a break in the rain so we headed to the bbq.

Then once we were there is pored and pored a ton more. So we roasted our hot dogs in the rain when it was not too bad then went back inside. Then we spent the evening chatting with people and watching the Cardinals/ Rangers World Series game


October 30th
My Birthday...
It was a great day since I did not have to work, yay! That morning we went to church then Neal wanted to take me hiking, and my first thought was hiking in Kansas you must be kidding. However, when we got to our destination Westen, MO State Park there were actually some great hills and trails. The leaves were changing their colors and it was a wonderful fall day.

Then when we got home Neal brought out his mad baking skills and made me a cake. And only 2 attempts at the frosting it turned out really yummy.

For dinner Neal wanted to surprise me and take me to this restaurant called Pot Pie, but low and behold being a Sunday they were closed. So we went to this Cajan restaurant called Jazz.
