The Stauffers do Texas

Well, for 48 hours anyway.  The Stauffers are good friends of ours that live in KC.   Adam and David were roommates throughout college so when they get together, it's like they are right back in college again...but with wives and multiple kids ;).  They have 2 cute boys, Henry-2 and Charlie-6 months.
 You are looking at Friday night's dinner.  The boys went to the store and cooked up some incredible stuffed pork, original recipe inspiration from John McCormack :).  We had some friends over for dinner/drinks and to let the kids play like crazy.  Cooper and Henry went to bed at 11pm!
The next morning we headed down to The Stockyards, it's our obligatory "Texas must see" for new visitors.  Where else can you see a longhorn cattle drive down Main Street?

We usually stop by the old school candy store and
 ride a couple rides.
A natural ;)
 Boys and their boys.
 Crazy Laney and Sweet Charlie.  This boy was just along for the ride with the 3 wild and older ones.
 One of the main reasons the Stauffers visited this weekend....Kenny Chesney concert!  My incredible baby-sitter brought a friend and they kept the 4 kids from 4 in the afternoon until after midnight, great baby-sitters are priceless!!!
 The concert was at Cowboys Stadium and we had awesome seats.  This was the view straight above us...yikes!  The biggest screen in the world was hovering above us.  Yes, it's a stadium...they opened the roof up for the night, so fun!
We had a blast!  Eric Church was a great opening act, always liked him, but he just might be my new fave.  And who doesn't love Kenny Chesney?  He played for over 2 hours, high energy, full of entertainment.  The crowd also provided quite the entertainment...we saw multiple people arrested, the lady in front of us puked and peed herself, and people passed out in random places!!!  No joke people, it was crazy!
 The next morning was Mother's Day and unfortunately the Stauffers had to catch an early flight (11am is early when the night before is Kenny Chesney ;)).  Cooper and Charlie were ready for pics...we had to chase down and tackle the other two.
 Another awesome weekend of visitors!  Thanks Stauffers for coming down to see us, we loved having you here!  Next visit, Final Four 2014...rock chalk jayhawk!
