Hotel Weekend

The first weekend of February our potluck group went to a hotel in Indy for a weekend. We went to Drury Inn on Shadeland Ave. A new and nice hotel. The greatest things about this hotel are 1. 3-10pm free popcorn and beverages 2. 5-7:30pm buffet of and not limited to, chicken strips, chili, baked potato, wings, carrots and celery, chips and salsa, salad etc. 3.hot free breakfast of waffles, eggs, bisquits and gravy, sausage, cereal, danish, yogurt, etc. 4. indoor/outdoor pool and hot tub. 5. a perk(if you like wine's and mixed drinks...) you also have 3 drinks per adult 21 years of age.
Here are a few random pictures from the weekend.
All the kids line up sunday morning(in the meeting room we rented for saturday/sunday morning) and sang us sunday school songs. It was fun.
Liam's REAL first time swimming in a pool at a hotel. He was frightful at first, but soon he was enjoying it so much he cried when we had to get out.

So like I said it has an indoor/outdoor pool. The pool really wasn't that cold, but the weekend we were there it was snowing and so it was fun for adults and kids to swim outside while it was snowing. Here I dared Elijah to make a snow angel and I did indeed bribe him...opps. I told him Id give him 2 dollars. So his uncle aj and him went out and made snow angels and yes, elijah got his 2 dollars when we got home. NUTTY BOYS!!


Liam and I getting use to the water at first.



In the lobby is where the kids would gather because they could watch a very large flat screen tv and watch cartoons. They did a good job being quiet in the lobby too, which was a surprise. I guess they were all glued to the tv.
What an enjoyable time we had. We always look forward to the once-a-year potluck weekend at a hotel.




Super Bowl Party

We had the honor of hosting our second annual Super Bowl Party. We really had a great turn out this year and hope to host again next year:). Here are a few pictures from the evening. As you can see most ladies sat around tables and talked, while the guys sat infront of the tv. Surprise, Surprise!!
Everyone brought yummy snacks and appetizers to share.
Even my little niece Liberty got in on the action!!




Bad picture, but this is AJ Gutwein, Phil Huber, Luke Furrer, and Andrew Huber watching the game:)
Thanks everyone for coming!! We had a great time.
