Keethler Scrapbook

So I decided to create a new blog dedicated solely to my scrapbook pages. Mostly because they are large files and I don't have to take up file space on this blog. I uploaded all my old posts from this blog over there because at some point I will probably delete those posts. So if you are interested feel free to check it out. I have a link on the side bar too.

And that concludes this PSA. ;)

Go State!

{as a side memory--Leighton loves to match her brother when she gets dressed for some reason, so today is KSU day apparently and she requested this photo shoot. Pom poms and all! Singing the fight song all the way through. We are definitely K-State proud! :) }

KSU {A Walk Down Memory Lane}

After a long work week we decided to end spring break with a quick trip back to where it all started, the Story of Us that is; Manhappenin'. We met up with some of our "old" college friends who have recently moved back to KS!! Thus, making the trip down memory lane all the better.

We got there a bit early and just drove around taking in the town that is not even remotely the same college town we "grew up" in. So much has changed in 7 years. After that we meet up with the Lambs at Varneys were the kids terrorized the store, ok maybe that was only my kids, since theirs' can't walk yet...plus, it was the only place around with a changing table! I mean seriously are there no kids in Manhattan?! HA! After a lunch stop at the yummy Coco Bolos, we toured campus.

The customary sign picture:

I see future caps and gowns on them some day, standing in this very spot.

Evidently, this sculpture is called "the womb," according to Jon you have to curl up like a baby to fit...

Here is Lo with a little stick...when we went into Hale Library we told her it needed to stay outside. When we emerged from Hale she threw the stick overboard and said "daddy say I can get new stick..."

Here is her "new" stick! HAHAHA!

We are cool and have a nuclear reactor on campus...oh and I am pretty sure it is in full commission, if need be.

The Strong Complex. It was like living in a castle, compared to the other dorms on campus. They may or may not have been coveted rooms...either way this is where I met Chad, he lived in Putnam and I lived in Boyd. It is also were I met Jon and April who both lived in Putnam. Great memories made here. Maybe one day I will be dropping Lo off here...

Daddy in front of his hall with his girl.

This is pretty much sums up MW for the trip. Chillin' like a villain in his ride. He loves to be pushed.

Views of Campus: 1. The stadium 2. The Quad 3. The Old Stadium {where Chad abandon, my roommate Ginger and I after the homecoming pep rally...:) } 4. Hale Library {where I literally spent my entire junior year. I slept, ate, and study there hours upon hours that year.}

After our walk down memory lane, we headed over to a local coffee shop Radina's and grabed a cup of joe before hitting the road home.  Micah and CG {the Lamb's darling little girl} are both red heads! CG's momma is a red head, so it obvious where she gets it, our son not so much. I thought the looked like twins and people probably thought he belonged to them. :)

Micah is under the impression that sippy is a paci...it never left his mouth. Sigh...

Chad and I drove around town on the way home to see our old apartments. This was our FIRST married apartment. It was tiny and I have no idea how we lived there! HA!

The following year we moved across the street to here. Coincidentally, or not it was the same apartment April lived in before she graduated and moved back home. It was my favorite.

Then in December 2005 we said good bye and moved home ourselves. I really loved K-State. It is such a small quaint campus. It is where I came into my own and learned a lot about life. It is where I "grew up" and met almost all of my life long friends and of course where I met my hubby. Thus beginning our first chapter in the Story of Us.

Great trip, and a perfect end to a wet spring break! Thanks Lambs for coming up with the idea and re-living our "glory" days. HA!

Let's Go CATS!

Today the Kansas State Wildcats play to make the Final Four!
We've got our game gear and face on!

Let's Go CATS!!! Is it game time yet?!

note: I hate this outfit b/c it makes her look like a boy, :( but it is all we have currently, I am still on the look out for a cute cheer outfit at a reasonable price!!

K-S-UUUUUUUUUU WildCATS!

Mommy was a cheerleader, so she is teaching me young!

Here's hoping we end Butler's 23 game winning streak (or so I hear...I honestly have no idea...)
Fight you K-State Wildcats... for a Wildcat Victory. GO STATE!
