Monday Morning....Brrrrr!

Well, folks.....today might be the day. If you live in Wichita, KS--specifically on the EAST side of town, listen up:

If it snows TODAY by NOON, my mom will be the winner of the annual Mikols snow competition. However, if it snows at noon or after, I'm the winner! (well I don't remember exactly when my time is up, but I'm sure the judges will let me know) If mom wins, it will be an epic moment...as she is the only Mikols to not have her name on the plaque. (Yes, folks, there is a plaque...we take it seriously : )

East siders of the Wichita area, keep your eyes peeled for those white snowflakes.
So, good luck mom!!

Towards the end of last week, we had a friend of ours, Josh, come through to visit. It was nice to see him and catch up. He was on his way to Texas for a Guard weekend and we are thrilled he was able to swing by on his way through. After Josh departed, we had another set of visitors arrive on Saturday morning.

My parents came to see us and arrived just in time for lunch. It was nice to actually have a weekend in town and be able to be at the house. We watched K-State football Saturday afternoon (yeah....the kitty cats couldn't make a touchdown but man they could kick some field goals!). Saturday night we went to the OSU football game--quite a bit better results than the afternoon KSU game.

Sunday morning we woke up and had some good ole pancakes, bacon, and eggs. We even got to use the truck and airplane cut out Theresa gave us. Mom wanted half a pancake and somehow asking for "half a truck" doesn't sound right! We enjoyed the weekend and having some relaxing family time was a nice change of pace.
