Our Wedding

<p style="text-align: left;">Our story starts with Derek stealing Elizabeth’s smoothie.   A few of us were walking up to third floor at work to get a beverage from the coffee shop and Elizabeth was talking up their smoothies. She was so needing a strawberry mango smoothie that day. When they got there, Elizabeth let Derek cut in line ahead of her. He orders a peach smoothie. Elizabeth’s turn! She orders her drink. They’re out of yogurt to make anymore smoothies!!   It couldn’t have been timed any better. Derek was just taking his first suck on the straw and realizing the magic of the smoothie to simultaneously see Elizabeth semi- fake death glaring him and saying “You...”. The barista felt so bad, she gave Elizabeth a Dixie cup of what didn’t fit in Derek’s cup.  And that’s the story of how Elizabeth discovered their frozen lemonade was actually pretty tasty.   This ended up being the initial foundation of our relationship including how Derek asked Elizabeth for a date... sort of? (See image 1 about smoothie science)<br />From there it lead to only more debauchery including a wonderful April Fools joke about us breaking up. Several people called us on it, but we managed to redirect them into believing it was real.</p>

Our Story

GrandStay Hotel

The casino is a few miles out of town. It’s also in a dry county (sorry, boys, there’s no bar).

Seven Clans Casino

C'mon Inn

Accommodations

A little smaller bar and grill in the back of Quality Inn with great food and friendly service! We recommend the salads and the western burger!

Sundance Dining

Arctic Cat-themed bar and grill. Staff can be iffy, but the food is good with some unique takes on burgers including an EMT burger with eggs and a Goober burger with peanut butter!

Black Cat Sports Bar & Grill

Yep, another bar and grill lol. The staff is friendly and the food is good here as well with different takes on burgers including the queso burger ( yes, it is a burger patty in a tortilla. So yummy!). Also the baked potato burger is one of our favs!

The Hive Bar & Grill

The staff is indifferent to everything (the truth hurts), but the food is pretty tasty. We recommend the chorri pollo for a little spice or the arroz con pollo if spice isn’t your thing. So yummy!

Las Ranitas

We’ve only eaten here a few times as it’s a newer restaurant, but the food has all been very good.

El Loro

A little pricey, but the food and staff are great. We recommend the war wonton soup and the egg rolls. All of the entrees have been delicious so far!

China King

A very friendly family owns and works the place. Good food for a good price. Be sure to say “hi” to their cute and artistic little daughter!
