Shortly after we returned from the beach, my little brother, Patrick, came to visit us. He is beginning his college search and wanted to visit one in Omaha, Nebraska - not too far from us. Patrick is always a fun guest to have and Sam adores him! During the day Patrick hung out with Sam and I doing our usual routine but the evenings we tried to take him to all the fun places in Aggieville/Manhattan. These trips usually included a stop at the world's best gourmet donut shop, Varsity Donuts, where he joined Justin in his goal to eat his way through all the flavors before we leave Fort Riley.

| Trying to sit as close as possible to Uncle Patrick! |
 |
| In Aggieville, getting some coffee grounds from our favorite local shop, Radina's. |
 |
| Sam has begun imitating many things we do, such as using a coaster for his drink. Very cute! |
 |
| The only show Sam ever watched was Curious George, just last week he suddenly decided he loves trains! This opened up Thomas the Tank Engine as a whole new world of excitement for him on Netflix. His interest in the shows usually lasts 5 minutes then he is back to playing, which is just fine since we would like to keep his TV time as low as possible, |
 |
| Justin has been dying to take Sam to Waffle House to get one of these snazzy hats and begin instilling love for this southern staple. In Georgia I passed 23 Waffle Houses during my 25 minute commute to work (not exaggerating), but here in Kansas we had to drive almost two hours to find one. |
 |
| Who doesn't love WH waffles? They taste better when wearing the hat. |
 |
| At our last Starbucks trip before dropping Patrick off for his flight. |
I love the bottle on the coaster--too funny!
