Home For The Summer...

So today we went to Manhattan to help move Matt, my brother, home for the summer. 

We left around 7:30 this morning...

See how awake we are?

I really do love the drive out there. Its my favorite part of Kansas to drive through.


This is my favorite exit

I love Manhattan for many reasons. It's where my dad went to college, where I went to college, where my husband and I met, where our first baby was born, and ALMOST where we got married. Now my little brother is going to college there too.

It will always be a special place to me.

Matt lives in Goodnow

So when we got there, we helped Matt and his roommate, Grant, transform their room from this

to this!

Yay clean!

When we got done, we rewarded ourselves with some pizza from a new place in Aggieville.

Doughboys is the new restaurant my mom's godson opened earlier this year. It's very good, and I promise I'm not just saying that (though, I am a little biased. C'mon, it's family!)


While we were there, a film crew for Food Network stopped by to film a spot on Roxy's Gourmet Grilled Cheese. I'd never heard of this until today, but people were lined up around the corner and down the block!

 

Unfortunately, they ended up not filming there, but it was fun to see all the hub-bub outside while we were eating!

When we were done, we headed back to campus for some dessert heaven at Call Hall Dairy Bar!

The kids thoroughly enjoyed this part!

We left Manhattan after we finished our ice cream, considering we still had to UNload a full SUV when we made it home. It was a very fun day, but we were glad when we got home.

Today we also found out in a couple weeks we will be headed north to Redding, Iowa to meet up with Dylan's dad and step-mom, Tony and Norma for the National Cattledog Finals! We're very excited because we don't get to see them very often, usually only a couple times a year. They live in Georgia, not an easy place to get to with two littles in tow.

Hopefully I'll have a little more time this week to update! G'night!
