The Caucus is Coming to Iowa!

Last night we had an incredible date night as a family. We started by going to the mall to use some of our gift cards. Cindy ended up the only one to get anything. The cool thing is that she DID get her ears pierced. She looks great in them! We left the mall and went to Outback for dinner. It was not very good this time. I ordered the medium prime rib and it was ice cold when I got it. I sent it back and they brought me a piece of meat that was 95% fat. I ended up with four bites of meat. 76 dollars later... We then went to the Mike Huckabee New Years party. It was great. There were nearly 2,000 people there. I was told it was going to be a private party, but it wasn't. It was a great time though. We were able to see both Huckabee and Chuck Norris. The boys and I were only about 10 feet or so from the stage. Cindy went and sat down. She was not into the crowd scene. I thought it was a great opportunity for the boys. Just the fact that we are in Iowa this year during the caucus is awesome. Every single presidential candidate has been in Boone at least once. I wanted the boys to get a chance to see a candidate up close.

It is also cool that we got to see Walker, Texas Ranger. This is one of our all-time favorite actors. I wish that we could have gotten an autograph, but that just wasn't possible. Chuck has got a looker for a wife too!

Fun time for all of us!
