Summer in KC

I know we have been huge slackers with the blog thingy so we decided to post one huge slide show of our summer so we wouldn't have to post 12 different ones and bore you to death. We have survived our first summer in Kansas City. We can officially say we are... official, living in every season that exists. Rumors are that Kansas city has the most rapid temperature spands in a year ranging from freezing your booty off to wanting to wear nothing. This summer we have done a ton (you will see below). We have discovered a couple of things here that we never had in Utah. 1) one word- chiggers! These are the most horrific creatures ever. I've never actually seen a chigger, just felt one. They are such as a mosquito, but 10 times more itchy and annoying. These creatures especially love biting parts of the body that have creases... not a good thing. 2) The humidity. When you are used to the dry heat, it can be a killer (literally, at one point there was a heat warning saying to keep pets and old people inside and away from the heat; it would suck to be an old dog) Sweat is a constant companion and I can't get away with not washing my hair as much... darn it! 3) The amazing BBQ's. Ok we knew before summer that KC was famous for BBQ, but we continued to delve into this heaven all summer long. For some reason it just tastes better here.
We have really enjoyed the summer, but are definitely looking forward to the Fall, they are beautiful here. Hope you enjoy the pics!

What? A new blog? I promise I was getting a little P.O.ed at the Milvis for not posting stuff. Anyway, looks like summer was great for you guys! When you coming to Utah? Try to make it before Halloween, so we can carve together. Matt made a pattern of my face, and I am going to do Zac Efron. Pumped.
