Back from NE...

Well, it's been quite a challenge for me to actually get something posted here so I figured there is no time like the present. Just getting into this "Blogging" world, so bear with me if I get off topic a bit. I tend to ramble. First I would like to say thank you to Katie for another fun and relaxing weekend in the NE...Got a chance to meet more close friends and have some fun with family as well. Flew in last Friday (23rd) to Omaha and basically crashed (no pun intended) because 24 hours prior I had returned from a 5 day "business" trip to Vegas, so needless to say I was a bit tired. However, that always goes away once I see Katie :) I know...I know...a bit corny, but I can't help it sometimes. Anyway, I digress...Headed to Lincoln on Saturday after having a light breakfast and awesome lunch at Paradise Bakery (our usual spot) because I don't have them here in MI...So on to Lincoln we headed...Got to see more of Nebraska that day...I believe we ended up in Hickman for Henry's 1st B-Day party?? I think it was Hickman. In any event got to hang with Kate and all of her college friends including Kaitlyn, Erin & Henry who celebrated a birthday very close to Mom. Also saw Stacey, Amber, and a bunch of others who will have to forgive me for not remembering names...a bit overwhelming with so many people who showed up. I think 35 or so...Not bad Henry for a 1st birthday. Headed to Grand Island after presents and cake to have dinner at Jenny and Mike's...Arrived a little late, but the hosts were very gracious with the tardiness. Following dinner hung for a bit then headed to bed because we were both beat, and had a long couple of days to go yet. Sunday was perfect. The weather, company, sun, pool, Coors light and BBQ...Couldn't have asked for a better day. Sorry....need to stop here...Red Wings are on, and the game is close. Need to watch a bit, but wanted to get some notes up before anymore time passed. I'll finish later
