Photo Friday: Won a Pair of Converse

Posted by Brenna Malmberg

Back in January, I entered a contest to win a pair of custom Big Boi sneakers from Converse. I was one of 10 lucky winners! Yesterday, I got them in the mail and quickly laced them up.

These are the first high-tops I have owned; my other couple of Converse were all low-top and purple, of course. . . .

Overblessified Thursday: Valentine Yumminess

Posted by Brenna Malmberg

Papa John's goodness.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Tonight we celebrated our second married Valentine's Day with heart-shaped pizza and a cinnapie. So yummy! It isn't a fancy dinner, but I am not a fancy fan, so it was perfect. I like quality time more. :) Plus, we watched Brave. I definitely recommend it. . . .

Dancing Jayhawks

Posted by Brenna Malmberg

A big win is followed by a bazillon stories, videos, posts and tweets. KU destroying K-State last night didn't fail and led to some more great dance moves like the ones above.

Please enjoy and watch all the way to the end. You won't be disappointed, unless you don't like Jayhawks. In that case, I am sorry. Truly sorry.

Appomattox Court House

Posted by Brenna Malmberg

On April 9, 1865, history took place in the small village of Appomattox Court House.

Things happen in history and you learn key phrases and buzz words. (If you remember it all, props to you.) For me, Appomattox Court House was the end of the Civil War. Thanks to an hour and a half drive, the National Park Service and guide, I learned more about that last sentence. . . .
