Saturday kicked off the start of our wedding season and it was in one of my favorite places: Iowa City baby! If you don’t know, I went to college at the University of Iowa in Iowa City in Iowa. Sorry if that was confusing, it’s pretty hard to follow, but it is actually located in Iowa. 🙂 Justin and I had a few hours to kill in between the ceremony and reception so we spent them eating at our favorite local spots, walking through campus, driving by our I-can’t-believe-we-lived-in-this dump of a house, reminiscing about the glory days, and taking these ridiculous pictures in front of Kinnick Stadium with the one and only Mr. Nile Kinnick. Let’s be clear…this is the first and only time I have EVER and will EVER wear heels in his presence. GO HAWKS! Is it football season yet?
