Ok so as I stated in my first blog, I wasn't sure how this was going to work. And as you can see so far I've dropped the ball completely!!! I could use the excuse that I've been too busy, but we all know that there are those nights that I've gotten absorbed into some crazy show or reading a book (yes I read, sometimes.) and so I haven't blogged. I also am not sure what to put out there. Life here has been pretty boring. Work, kids, work, kids, sleep, visit family, work and sleep, kids. I think you get the picture.
This weekend we'll be in Montgomery, MN for the annual Kolacky Days festivities. The boys are looking forward to seeing grandma and grandpa and the rest of the fam, and so am I. It has been quite a change to not have everyone close by to visit when we pleased. Anyways for those of you that don't know, a kolacky is basically a bun with filling...like apricot, raspberry, poppy seed, prune (yuck..sorry for those that enjoy them), apple, etc. They originated from Czechoslovakia and started out open faced. In time the wives discovered that if they folded the corners in and baked them that way, then the filling didn't get all over the husbands lunch pail. They do not sound like a great treat, but they are quite tasty, and sort of expensive. Therefore we will only eat a few. It amazed me my first year at Kolacky Days that the town celebration focused on a bun with filling, but it is a huge deal. The town doubles and some years triples in size and there is a full weekend of festivities. It is great time, especially the beer garden and dances Friday and Sat night. Will be lonely without Andy, but I will make the best of it! There will be enough people there to keep me company, especially since I have a bachelorette party to attend!!!?
OK so I feel like I've bored you enough so I'll call it night. Until next time....God Bless!
