5 Fab Days in Kansas City







We finally made it back to Philly yesterday morning after having our flight get cancelled on Monday due to mechanical issues. It was a bit scary because we aborted during takeoff-but we were glad to be safely on the ground! We had a blast in KC. It was great to kick it off with lunch with Mom, Patrick, Trish & baby Madelyn at Winsteads! Ohhh how I do miss Winsteads! Then it was off to family dinner at Larry & Marq's with sibs, cousins, aunt & uncles! Marq & Larry out did themselves with a great spread of food! Thanks again for having us all over! The night didn't end there...the next stop was Paddy's! Which was an absolute BLAST! It was great to see our friends all in one place! Thursday was spent recovering from Wednesday and then we got to have our Mexican food fix at Cactus Grill with Carol & Jimmy. It was so nice to have some one on one time with them! Friday started with a great lunch at Zest with Joie & Rich followed by my very yummy birthday dinner of homemade fried chicken, gravy, mashed potatoes, and veggie casserole! Thanks MOM-I know you hate making that meal! We then made our way to Waldo and hit up Lew's for a few beverages! It was also a great night with family and friends! Saturday began at Gwen's baby shower! It was so great to see her and her super cute baby belly! We can't wait til Baby Girl Gigous makes her way into the world! And thanks Emily for the lift to Topeka-it was great catching up on the drive! Saturday night was Matty's KU Graduation Party! What a great party full of family & friends! It was great to see AB & UM! The party just kept going and going and going with more and more people! It was a BLAST! Cousin Bryan was pure entertainment all night! Hopefully he has now recovered! Sunday was a fun day in L-Town! I miss Lawrence so much. It was great to be on campus and seeing all the graduates! CONGRATS to Matty & all his friends! It's official now that all 3 McCormack Kids have made the walk down the hill! Rock Chalk! After graduation we headed to the Wheel for a celebration drink and of course a piece of Wheel Pizza! We had so much fun with Matty & his friends! And V got me a great surprise...a official t-shirt from the Wheel! What a great hubby! After a few drinks we had to head back to KC for dinner at Hibachi! Yummy in all of our tummy's! Our final hours in KC ended with a great lunch at Spin with dad! I miss my daughter/dad lunches. And then the flight drama started-but it was ok because we had such a great trip that this hiccup was just par for the course! Miles was super excited to see us yesterday! He was very tired when we got back-so he spend the whole afternoon & evening snoozing! Now I need to start laundry and catch up on DVR!
