Perfect Picks

Oh yeah, we're the highlighted team...at the top!

Jordan and I play in an NFL Pick 'Em Pool with my dad, sister, brother, several uncles and then lots of co-workers and friends of my uncles. We thought it would be a fun thing to get into and give us all something to talk smack about with each other. Well.....it has quickly turned into MUCH more than that. Basically, it's a really easy concept: you pick who you think is going to win every NFL game for the week and then give a tiebreaker score. That's it. No picking individual players or a defense. And the people who finish in the Top 3 each week win money! This pick 'em pool is perfect for me and Jordan because it's a great combination of my luck and his football knowledge (although, I know my fair share of football facts.) After a few kind of rough weeks, we've slowly been creeping our way back up to the top. Then the past two weeks, the Top 3 places came down to the tiebreaker score and we got beat out. Devastating. And so this week we came back with a vengeance!  AND WE TOTALLY DOMINATED!!!! We had PERFECT picks across the board for a solid 13-0 showing and no tie breaker to determine the winner. We outright won it and made some huge ground for the overall points for the season to get within 3 of the winner. Whoop whoop! Now that's what I call teamwork, baby!

Ahh it's (almost) the weekend!

It's Thursday!! And tomorrow I get to sleep in! AND I only work 4 hours then I'm off to Des Moines for the weekend to visit the two cutest kiddos I know and love so much!

Teagan & Kemper

I haven't seen them (or my bro and sister-in-law) since February...To be exact, since our epic weekend out in Madison. Which means it has been far too long! I can't believe a month and a half has passed by so quickly! Ahh so many things have happened and yet, I still have so much I need to do! But oh well, I'm not worrying about that now! My brother is running in a race and Kat is doing hair for a wedding so I get to babysit and spend a quality Saturday morning with the kids. I'm so excited for some snuggling, giggling and being a kid again with those two....and then of course, I'll enjoy some nice cold ones Saturday night with the adults of the house. Ah I can't wait! Now hopefully nothing bad happens to me tomorrow since it's Friday the 13th, that would be just my luck! Happy early weekend everyone, don't cross paths with a black cat tomorrow!
