Good Times with Good Friends

This weekend was jam-packed with friends and fun. Our good friend Clint graduated from college in New York City this summer, and everyone is so proud of him!! He finally found a college and a major that he loved and we couldn't be happier for him now that he has graduated and moved back home to Iowa. His grad party was Friday night, and the night would not have been the same without his brand new Fowling (like bowling, except with an F) set. It is a combination of football and bowling that he first heard of on his annual treks to the Indy 500. Jerod and I spent a couple days this past week constructing the fowling boards (which are 8'x42") and painting them, needless to say- we are not the most experienced carpenters!! Anyway, they turned out great, and the boys set up a tournament and had an awesome time, Jerod and his partner Matt won the tourney.....does this kid not lose anything?! Saturday night we went to an I-Cubs game where they had over 10 hits and they won- free tacos at Taco Bell!! Then we went to our friend Stacie's going away party. Stacie and her husband Ryan got engaged this spring and moved their wedding up to this past June so that Stacie would be able to live on the base in El Paso with him. We are so excited for the two of them and wish them the best and we can't wait until they can move back to Iowa in a couple of years. We are so lucky to have such awesome friends to spend time with, love you guys!
