On Friday we gave Amy & Brandon a tour of our house, as it was the first time they have seen it. Then we went to the Memorial Union to watch The Vagina Monologues. It was a different kind of play, but it was still very enjoyable. Basically it was a collection of different women's experiences (good and bad) as they relate to their lady parts. It also raised awareness for violence against women around the world. Then after the show we went out to eat at Oddfellow's Burger Kitchen here in town. Amy had the "Sunday Mornin' Burger" which among other toppings had a fried egg and bacon, Brandon had the "Ring of Fire Burger", and I had the Green Chile Burger. I'm not sure if Elizabeth had a burger or something else...
Then on Saturday I took Amy & Brandon to watch the ISU men's basketball game against the TCU Horned Frogs. The game itself was a laugher, as Iowa State won by a score of 87-53. This is TCU's first year in the Big 12, and they are definately the worst team in the conference (1-11 conference record currently).
Tip-off between ISU and TCU. The Cyclones controlled the tip. |

Later on Saturday we met back up with Elizabeth and went out for supper at Hickory Park. Needless to say, but we had plenty of good food there as well!! This weekend we also took a few family pictures at a nearby park, went out to sing karaoke (well, Elizabeth and Amy sang at anyways), and we played a board game called Settlers of Catan. All in all, it was a very fun weekend to share with family (and to find out more about our future family)!!
