Hawkeyes visit the Huskers

This has been such a busy month for us! In early October, we were able to go visit our Husker friends in Nebraska. We have not seen Dan and KayCee's son Thomas since right after he turned one (He's 3 1/2 now) and they had new baby Sammie Jo over the summer so it was time to make the trip! It is always fun to see them as there is someone for everyone, especially now that Sammie was born. Roger has Dan, I have KayCee, S.Jessen has Thomas, Tate now has Sammie, and they even have a Shih tsu Farley for Dixon to play with!

We did have some priceless quotes that I have to share. Thomas, as well as most of us, have a very hard time understanding our sweetie Tate's stories. At one point Thomas screamed from the top of the steps, "What aw you saying?!" He was so serious. As Dan is apologizing, and I am laughing Thomas then says, "Tate speaks many spanish words!" Poor guy. He was so excited for his new friends to come play. S.Jessen was very infatuated with baby Sammie and Tate couldn't speak a lick of English :) All in all it was a terrific time and probably the easiest travelling experience we've had since Tate's been born. It's easier visiting friends who know what it's like to have two kids.


The Huskers and Hawkeyes both lost miserably, but Dan and Roger did rally pretty good :)
