A Weekend to Celebrate!

Last weekend Ken and I had our first house guests! Ken's younger brother, Karl and his girlfriend Christal, came to stay with us to celebrate Karl's 23rd Birthday.  We had such a great weekend and it was so fun to have friends in town to hang out with.  On Friday night we went to Nora's.  Ken and I had our rehearsal dinner there and Ken's family is officially hooked.  We ate until we were stuffed and Karl got a little dessert for being the birthday boy.

After dinner we headed over to Stoney's but they wanted to charge us cover since we all had out-of-state driver's license.  After trying to explain that we just moved in town and it was Karl's birthday, with no success, we decided to leave and hang out at home instead.  Since it was Cinco de Mayo weekend I decided to bust out the sombrero and tequila shots.  I'm still not sure if that was a good idea or not!?! Anyways we had a great time talking, drinking and hanging out in our courtyard listening to country music!

This is the only group shot I got of the whole weekend (right after our tequila shot).

Holly wanted to get in on the action too! Poor mutant pup!

 

On Saturday, Cinco de Mayo, we took Karl & Christal to Town Square to eat lunch at CPK and walk around.  Ken got some new shirts from Tommy Bahama (he is such an old man) and I got a new phone case.  We then went to Boot Barn where Karl got new cowboy boots, a birthday present from Christal, and finally ended up at Bass Pro Shop. Ken and Karl love Bass Pro Shop and can just walk around for hours---I don't think I'll ever understand it.

Later that night we went to Lindo Michoacan to celebrate with margaritas!  We were able to sit on the patio and enjoy the beautiful weather and the awesome view!

Thanks for the great weekend Karl & Christal.  We had such a great weekend with you two!
