Ken & Tawinee

Kurt’s Blog: Cher, Cubbies, and Wine

Had a blast Saturday morning with the Fort Des Moines Hot Rods Little League team. They were the winners of our “Big Ken & Colleen I-Cubs to the Rescue Contest”…

Here’s a video from the practice

Big thanks to the Iowa Cubs…and Pitchers Dallas Beeler & Kyle Hendricks. They were incredible with the kids, and all involved had a great time.

Even better, we beat Saturday’s monsoon by 2 minutes.

Good times as well was had at Sips in the City on Friday night. Loved the State Historical Building as the location…thought it was much easier to get around, and just seemed better (that’s great marketing right there…”Kurt, your thoughts please?” “It was better.”)

Wanted to give a shout out to Brad as well for the picture he took Friday night…this should be the new Winefest logo from now on.

Although this will only provide more ammunition for my friends to use against me…I’m very much looking forward to the Cher/Cyndi Lauper concert tonight.

Listen, I’m not going to lie…if you see me during “I Found Someone”, you will see me belting it out…and my wife looking quite embarrassed….but I’ll have my revenge when I catch her yelling out “Believe”.
