Denver was perfect on this Christmas eve, it had snowed the week before we drove thru so everything was Christmasy white but the roads were clear! First order of business was to go straight to our next Diner Drive Ins and Dives location which was Steuben's and it was worth the drive!
Don and I shared some fierce chicken and waffles. We also wanted our own dish as well but we had to order this as our appetizer.
He had a sandwich I couldn't pronounce and I had the lobster roll that was featured on the show. I would really recommend this place for lunch. The people were great and as luck would have it there were a lot of cute servers!
Christmas Day Don was driving I was the co-pilot. I do love the iPad for picture taking on the dash! The goal was to drive from Denver to Omaha we stopped at Starbucks and were on our way. It was a great drive not many cars on the road and a beautiful sunny day.
All I am going to say about Nebraska is brown and flat! Oh and it smells like cow poop. The tallest things in Nebraska are the on and off ramps. Not a gay bar in sight for miles.
When I was driving Don was in charge of the navigation easy said than done. It is all about the blue dot on the blue line! We decided nothing would be open in Omaha so we drove straight thru to De Witt Iowa my home town.
Christmas Day the only thing we found open was a Kum and Go (for real) gas station and I broke down and had the best wiener I have ever had. Don thought this would be a good blog photo titled
The best wiener I ever had was at the Kum and Go
We finally got to my mom's house at 10pm some family was still there so we opened some gifts and checked in to the Super 8 which we re-named the Satan 8.
It was great seeing all the family and catching up with everyone. My mom Sally wanted a haircut so she was the first cut I did
She loves getting her hair cut by me why? because I never get water in her ears! Not because I am good:) My nephew Phillip wanted a Beckham cut so I cut it and my nieces Ashley and Jessica styled him and took this pic of him giving us his best Zoolander
