Greg used to be in a band with Chris and another guy there, Eric, called <em>Breakfast with Erasmus<\/em>.  It was a short-lived band, but I am glad that I was able to go to their one concert in Lincoln, NE.  \ud83d\ude42  Greg and Eric were also in another band together during college for several years before Greg and I began dating called <em>Springfield<\/em>.  I did attend some of their concerts too, and especially liked the cat song, which is a &#8220;true&#8221; story about how girls would visit their apartment just to see their cat and could care less about the guys who lived there too.<\/p>\n<p>Anyways, we both had a really good time.  I enjoyed getting to know Chris&#8217; wife, Anja, better.  It was so good to see friends from college that we haven&#8217;t seen in so long.  Chad Isely was there, which I totally was not expecting.  I was glad to see him.  I remember Sally and I used to covet the &#8220;encouragement notes&#8221; and drawings we would receive from him during our time at Grace.  I also had a lot of fun playing with Chris and Anja&#8217;s 15 month old daughter Keelyn.  That has really made me start looking even more forward to having a kid of our own soon!<\/p>\n<p>We then headed back to Omaha where we of course stayed with Shad and Lynette.  As always, the dogs made a lot of noise running all over their place while we kept busy with some Mario Kart DoubleDash.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last weekend, Greg and I attended a surprise birthday party in Iowa for one of Greg&#8217;s old college friends, Chris, that we have only seen once since leaving Omaha 4 years ago.
