Memorial Day Weekend Recap

I know, it's almost this weekend and I'm finally getting around to writing about last weekend!  I've been busy, like way busy...but I'm making time now.  This recap may be brief to save time, but don't worry, there will be plenty of pictures!


We headed to Omaha last weekend to visit Ashley and Andy.  On Friday night, we even got a bonus because Laura and Jason were still in town!  We went to a new bar called Beercade, which has some great old school arcade games and good beer.  Then we headed to Krug Park so we could enjoy some delicious Bloody Mary's.




Saturday morning, Ashley and I ran some errands, yes that means a Trader Joe's stop! Then just chilled until we had to head to golf course.  Whoop whoop!  We had a 3:30 tee time, so we hit up the driving range first.  It was HOT, so Ashley and I played 5 holes and then just decided to drink out beer and ride in the cart the rest of the game.


After golf, we grilled out, caught up on "Girls," and played euchre the rest of the night!  

Sunday, we went to the zoo!  Despite Ryan and Andy being Debbie Downers before we even parked the car, it ended up not being as crazy as it looked.  The zoo is big enough to accommodate a lot of people, so the worst thing was that a few of the inside exhibits were a little crowded, probably because it was so hot outside!  Highlights from the zoo: the skyfari ride, watching the sea lions and the bears get fed, and the monkeys fighting over the baby monkey!





After the zoo we scored some Red Mango and then went home to get ready for dinner.  We went to Espana, a tapas restaurant.  OMG, it was so good and so worth that little bit extra we paid as opposed to a regular dinner out.  Then we came home and watched the new Game of Thrones, then Ashley and I enjoyed a chat on the deck and then we played euchre, again!
On Monday, we slept in, packed up, and grabbed some lunch at Sgt. Peffer's.  This was a cute little Italian place in a random neighborhood and it was quite yummy!  Then we said goodbye to Andy and Ashley and made the long drive home!

I hope you all had a great weekend and have something to look forward to this weekend :)
