Des Moines

We had a super fun weekend with our friends Jared & Amber in Des Moines. We went down to visit Friday night. Saturday the guys grilled some fajitas for us for lunch while Amber and I talked about the essentials of life - our husbands careers, Hollywood gossip, and how fat we feel. haha

Sat night, J&A had a babysitter come over to watch the kids. And out we went for a night on the town! We headed to downtown Des Moines for dinner at Legends (sports bar type restaurant b/c i was with 3 March Madness enthusiasts). We had a blast just talking and laughing our heads off. We sat there for hours just visiting and it was great. We topped off the evening with a trip to Culvers for a frozen custard - which ended up with me having a "confrontation" with the store manager and Michael resorting to submitting a complaint on the restaurant web site when we got home. (long story that just results in awful customer service...but we got our custard, darn it!) :)

We got in lots of games of spades as usual too! So it was good times with the Bruggers!

When we returned to Mpls, we were thrilled to come back and see all the snow had melted! There was grass everywhere - wahoo! Then came Monday...............it snowed for 12 hours straight and dumped a fresh 6 inches of snow on the ground. Seriously people. But we are on a warming trend for the next few days that could even take us to the 50s!!
