Weekend Snapshots

Weekend Snapshots
Happy Monday everyone! I've been pretty quiet on here since the election. I needed some time to process and, honestly, grieve. My heart still hurts but I'm done wallowing. Love will trump hate. So expect a full blog calendar this week! :D I celebrated getting out of my funk with a packed weekend. It was just what I needed. Don't forget to link up to your weekend snapshots at the bottom of this post! Fashion Gala Events Omaha Her Heartland Soul Friday after work I met up with these lovely ladies for a runway show hosted by Fashion Gala Events. Wine and time with girlfriends were just what the doctor ordered. Fashion Gala Events Omaha Her Heartland Soul The event was a lot of fun. There was some great fashion. Fashion Gala Events Omaha Her Heartland Soul And fabulous music. Jocelyn is an Omaha native and performed a song between each runway set. This girl is going places! Fashion Gala Events Omaha Her Heartland Soul We said hi to her after the show and got a picture together. Definitely check out her music. She has such a range it is unreal. Made Omaha Event Her Heartland Soul Saturday morning Josh and I ventured downtown to MADE, a local Omaha craft market. There are so many talented artists in the area. It's fun to check out all their work! Made Omaha Event Her Heartland Soul We picked up lunch at The Dire Lion, a new-to-us English foodtruck parked outside the event. Made Omaha Event Her Heartland Soul I'm not even sure what all of it was, but it was delicious. And now I'm randomly wanting to plan a trip to the UK. Funkfest Farnam House Omaha Nebraska Her Heartland Soul After the craft market Josh and I popped over to Farnam House so Josh could check out their brews. They were having a special Funk Fest, so while he got funky with a flight, I sipped on my favorite Glacial Till Cider. Kaneko AIGA Show Omaha Nebraska Her Heartland Soul That evening we headed to KANEKO for their AIGA design event. We listened to a panel discussion with three top designers from across the country. They talked about their work for companies like Nike, Google, Netflix, Apple, MIT, and so much more. I wish I had that kind of creativity. Kaneko AIGA Show Omaha Nebraska Her Heartland Soul We then checked out the exhibit that was created by students. Art galleries are always so calming to me. Punkin Her Heartland Soul Sunday mornings are for Punky snuggles! When I saw him sitting like this I just burst out laughing. He looks like a meme waiting to happen. Turkey Bingo Council Bluffs Her Heartland Soul Later that day while scrolling Facebook I saw there was a Bingo event happening at a bar in Council Bluffs. Because I am secretly a 75 year old woman, I asked Josh if he wanted to spend the afternoon playing Bingo with me. We had a blast and Josh won two games! Panera Her Heartland Soul Before heading home for the night we picked up Panera for dinner. I will never get tired of their autumn squash soup.
