All of us in The Palace. This was a fun place to shop in college and still fun even after the changes.

Eeka and Josie hanging in our old stomping grounds. This is really where we decided if we were going to go to class that day or sit with each other and eat fan loaves and do the crossword puzzle. Yes, mom, class won out more often than not.

Eeka and Mendy entertaining us with their piano playing. Great fun!!

Kearney Girls Reunion

I'm currently in Manhattan reuniting with college friends. Here we are standing outside of the house 6 of us lived together. Michelle even went to the door to ask if we could see the house. They let us come in the front door and reminisce. There are many more details on Erika's blog.

Excited and Exhausted Looking Forward

So as I look forward towards my next few weeks I have in my plans a few travels I have been looking foward to for quite sometime and also so that are just part of work. I am so excited to spend time in Manhattan with most of the Kearney Girls clan. This will be a great time to reminece, catch up, laugh, and probably cry as we typically do. We have a scavenger hunt planned to relive our college days that I think we are all pumped to do together. No fears Tiffany we will document for you to enjoy in spirit.

Then I will leave in a little over 2 weeks to go to Seattle to celebrate Tiffany's bday. We have a cabin rented in the mountains and will enjoy mountains and water. This will be my second vacation with the Classens and Mike this year. Fun times will be had by all.

I will be in Wichita for a week as well as be possibly in Chicago for a few days. So basically, I'm here in KC this week and then Labor Day weekend. Other than that I'm gone until September 12.

I'm currently watching the taping of the Women's Semifinal Soccer Game. The are up and hopefully will remain this way to play in the gold medal match. I'm glad there isn't as much going on in the Olympics this week as I was losing sleep staying up so late watching them. In case you didn't already know, Michael Phelps is amazing!!!

I LOVE THE OLYMPICS!!

I have been looking forward to the Olympics all summer. And this year they are not failing to impress. I'm sitting here watching the medal ceremony for Michael Phelps 3rd gold medal of the games. (I'm sorry if that was a spoiler for you Tiffany I understand they are showing the evening footage on tape delay for you all on the west coast). I think it is so touching that even after he wins by such a large margin he is so touched. I have been enjoying beach volleyball, which has not been a favorite in the past.

I'm excited to get home to my DVR when I can rewind and watch the amazing parts over and over again. I can also yell as loud as I want at the TV and know the only one that will think I'm crazy is Chloe.

I'm nervous for the gymnastics. I'm just not sure how it is all going to come out. I have confidence if both teams do their best we can have silver.

I have been waking up in the wee hours in the morning to support the Women's Soccer team. Luckily the mornings I have to work they play at 6:30. This past Saturday it was at 4:00 am. That was early, but worth the time. I then went back to sleep and slept until 10:30, I don't know the last time I slept in that late.

I think that is all my excitement for now.

Returned from Vacation

I had a great time with the family in California. We did a lot of relaxing and catching up. I met some new family members and enjoyed the time I had with those I see regularly. It was a great time in my life to spend this time with those I love. I will attach a few photos to see the fun we had together.
A look out out on the water from Balboa Island, little did we know we were going to take a ferry to the other side of the island and not the main land. Opps!!
This is the location we finally decided to stop walking in circles and call a taxi to take us to the beach. That was the best $15 we spent all weekend. (FYI: That little blue condo is on the market for $1.3 million if you would like to purchase)
Troy loved the beach and the ocean. If we would have let him he would have run straight out to the middle of the ocean.
