Happy New Years

New Years Eve we met Jason, Zelda & Harper in Iowa City for the weekend. On the way to Iowa City we had dinner at The Shed. It was great food and the waiter and waiters wore bib overalls. It was farm themed and I loved it.  


We got to the hotel around 8 and just hung out there. I took balloons, party hats and sparkling grape juice for the night. The balloons were a huge hit with Harper. 


Ringing in the New Year.  I haven't stayed up until midnight for years but had fun doing it this year. 

In the morning everyone humored me and went with me to the Dillard's New Years Day sale.  I always went to this sale in Columbia but had thought I wouldn't get to this year,  Little did I know I would be staying in a hotel within walking distance to Dillard's. After a little shopping in the mall we ate lunch and went Ice Skating. How fun to have an ice skating rink in the mall. 



The next day we went to the Children's Museum. It was geared toward kids Harper's age but everyone had a great time.

We found a local BBQ restaurant for lunch. My little guy loves his ribs. 

The balloons were a favorite activity all weekend. 

In the afternoon and evenings we hung out in our room, played cards and swam at the hotel.
