First Married Road Trip

People are really nice in the Midwest...
We just got back from our first roadtrip as a married couple. The timing was perfect because I had fall break, and Michael didn't have to work because he quit his old job and GOT A NEW ONE!! Hooray! Actually, he got offered TWO new jobs, and just accepted one of them this Friday. He will be working as a sales rep for a company called ACME Manufacturing. He will be selling really exciting things like "threaded rod". But seriously, we are really excited about it.

So on our trip, we drove to Des Moines, Iowa to see Michael's brother (Robby) play football. He plays for Drake University as a defensive end...and we got there just in time to see him make some spectacular plays. We screamed our heads off for him. We hung out in Des Moines for a few days doing nothing at all...but it was a relaxing break, and it was really good to see Robby and Neek.

We heart them.

Then we drove to see Matt and Reagan in beautiful Kansas City...


Okay, so that isn't Kansas City...I stole this picture of them in Hawaii on their honeymoon. We really wish that they lived here...we are trying to think of a way to convince Matt to drop out of school and move back to Colorado. We could have them live in one of the guest rooms in our house. Plus, we have a room for their new and upcoming baby boy. (Think about it, Ogles -we could play CLUE and watch Myth Busters regularly...)
