Congrats Ryan!

We have been quite the travelers the past few weeks.  This last weekend we went to Oakland, California with Brandon's family for Brandon's brother's wedding.  It was a wonderful wedding.  We are excited to have Laurel be a new addition to family.





We were able to accomplish another one of Brandon's dreams this weekend.  He has always been a Raiders fan and we went to a game.  It was quite the experience.  We had to be body searched by security before entering the stadium.  I literally did not feel safe walking around the stadium by myself.  Even Brandon felt a little nervous.  It was so fun though.

Even though the Raiders lost, we still had a blast.

Seattle

A few weeks ago Brandon and I went up to Seattle to visit family, have fun, shop and......go to the Counting Crows concert!!!  It was such an awesome trip.  We love, love, love Seattle and if everything go as planned we will hopefully be living there in the next few years.  

These cute kids are Brandon's cousins Quinnlin and Gaia.  They have so much energy!  We loved to be able to see them.
Here we are at the boat locks.  

There is a semi new park called the Olympic Park in the city.  It is awesome!  It consists of people donating money to build crazy sculptures or donating their own crazy sculptures.  We loved it.
We didn't really know what these were supposed to be.
Here we are at the concert!  Brandon's favorite band has always been Counting Crows, but he had never seen them in concert so as soon as he found out they were going on tour, maybe for the last time, we took the opportunity to see them in our favorite city.  They played with Maroon 5 and Augustana opened for them.  It was one of the best concerts I have ever been to.  We both loved it.  Brandon was like a little kid in a candy store he was so excited.

Welcome Addy!

I hate that it has taken me so long to post this, but Brandon's sister Alicia had her baby a few weeks ago!  She is absolutely beautiful.  We are all so excited to have a baby on the Plewe side.  We love you Addy!

Monet to Picasso


Brandon and I went to the Monet to Picasso exhibit at the UMFA and it was awesome!  We highly recommend going to see it, but hurry because this is the last week it is here.
