UPDATE!

Hey hey hey...I REALLY want to be good at this blogging thing but for some reason I just can't seem to sit down and write on a daily basis. It's hit or miss when a post comes from me. This past week has been pretty good and pretty uneventful. I do have some pictures to share of our last weekend. The f
un began on Saturday night with Kevin and Mindy. They introduced us to what may now be my FAVORITE new restaurant. If you love seafood and sushi, Noa Noa in Warsaw, IN is fabulous! Both couples had a combo plates FULL of sushi and they even threw a little octupus in there ( not a fan!).

The Crew: Kevin, Mindy, Maggie, Neal

This is what Neal likes to call "THE mega-bite"


Sunday started out with the 4h fair 5k road race. Many of the girl's on the team and I decided to do the race and were decked out in some pretty sweet tank tops. I ran 20:50 and got 3rd in my age group...I was pleased for how little I had been running before the race. There were some pretty hilarious guys wearing costumes in the race that I WISH I would have taken a picture of. Just a few of my favorites: 2 men in big baby diapers, a large man dressed like a transformer squirting people with water, and someone dressed like a twinkie. I hate to admit it....but I did get beaten by the Twinkie...YES the Twinkie. Just as the race had finished I was doing a mile cooldown back to Neal's jeep when it started POURING and I was nice and soaked by the time I got back to Neal. We were supposed to go with a bunch of friends that night to eat at the fair and go see Jars of Clay but because of the rain the outing was canceled. Neal and I were not about to let a little rain stop us from the only day we were going to get fair food!!! (It was the only day it was free to go to the fair...and we weren't about to go the other days and pay 8 bucks a piece to get in to the fair). But...let me just tell you about the AMAZING assortment of food we ate. First, from a recommendation by our friend Mindy we headed straight for the steak tips! Words can't describe....tips of medium cooked juicy steak topped with mashed potatoes, camelized onions, and mushrooms. ohhh yeaaa. Then after walking that off for a bit we were ready for round two: Mozzarella FINGERS! Just check out the picture! Lastly, I had to get a red barn elephant ear to satisfy my sweet tooth. After eating we walked home and ZONKED out for the rest of the evening....wonderful night!

Neal has another softball game tonight and I'm outtie to watch him play. They are playing in the "play-in" game just to make the tournament...if that tells you anything about how "good" they are! haha
