Animal activists, turn away.

My (2nd) cousin Derek is the man! The other day he went out, sat in the cold for 3 hours, and got a doe with a bow and arrow! That's hardcore if you ask me. I don't want to get on his bad side :)

Needless to say, I love being in Kansas. You just don't see this everyday in good ol' Virginny.

Sweaters.

Haven't blogged in a while, and while I could do this in chronological order, I don't feel like it. Last night Julia and I went to my cousin Ryan's Christmas sweater party. We went to it 2 years ago and this was the 3rd annual party. Way to go, Ryan. See you next year. On second thought, come visit your cousins in Virginia!

Plan B?

So the plan was to surprise Becky in Kansas for Christmas. We left Tuesday around 2:00pm and here we are at a Super 8 Motel somewhere in Ohio. Our car battery was acting funny, the lights weren't consistent and the windshield wipers weren't working. So, 7 hours from home and 18 miles away from Kansas. The roads are a sheet of ice and so even if our car was fine, we wouldn't be able to drive. Merry Christmas Eve from Super 8!

The only outlet was in the bathroom. No shame, no shame.
