His & Her Weekends

For the first time that I can remember, both Karla and I had weekends out of town but not together.  Karla went to Iowa with all her sisters to play in a charity golf tournament.  Seeing as how I can't swing a golf club quite yet, I didn't go.  Instead I went to Chicago to see some friends and catch a Liverpool Soccer game.




had alot of fun with all her golfing family members, and even though she hadn't played in a bit hit them very well!  She also got to experience her hometown fair, including the ever popular RV race.  Lowell is going to try to enter next year (j/k).



I got to Chicago late Friday and got a nice run in Saturday morning before heading to the farmers market for some fresh cheese curds!  Then I met up with Patrick & Gil and started the day of bowtie festivities.  We were going to go to the Cubs game, but tickets were very expensive to watch a really bad baseball team.  So instead we picked up lunch at Xoco(of course) and went up to our friend Jason's new house in lakeview.  Holy hell that's a nice house.  We chilled on his rooftop day drinking until dinner.  We donned the bowties and headed to Chicago Firehouse for a nice steak dinner.  The rest of the night was a blur, but I remember not being served at the Trump, usually a sign its time to go home.

Sunday we were moving pretty slow, but the goal was to go see Liverpool vs Olympiakos at Soldier field.  As I'm a Liverpool fan, it was a real treat, and I had to get suited up appropriately.  Liverpool won 1-0 so it was a good day!

Headed back monday afternoon and concluded a nice weekend for both of us!
