Family Visit. . .

Kevin's parents came to visit last weekend, along with his brothers Jon and Tim and Tim's girlfriend, Bethany. Friday night we went to the Hotel Ottumwa and listened to the band play for a few hours. The event was actually for Valentine's Day and there were dozens of chocolates to choose from! Jon and Tim sang a few songs with Kevin and, in my opinion, they were awesome!

On Sunday we took Bethany out to El Rancho to celebrate her birthday. I warned her before lunch about the waiters and how the celebrate a birthday! Sure enough, they made her wear a sombrero and sang loudly as they fed her fried ice cream! The funny part is that while the waiter was giving her a bite, he then smeared it around her mouth! She was a great sport and laughed the whole time!

Tim and Jon hanging out with Emma.
We stayed up late playing Rook and CatchPhrase and even watched a K-State basketball game Saturday afternoon. Maybe the highlight (or lowlight) of the weekend was watching Kevin drive his truck out of the drive, up the hill, and then slide back down the hill, eventually losing control, sliding sideways and then finally resting in the ditch, directly in front of our house. Needless to say, he wasn't happy. I thought it was a tiny bit comical. Just a tiny bit.

Hmmm...Kevin didn't tell me about his ditch incident. Time to get another address sign? :) I'm glad someone else lost control, like me. Love, Julie
