Paducah Life with the Bohanons

God has blessed Andrew and me with great friendships! We have couple friends and develop stronger relationships with them as we get older. The Bohanons are just one of the few couples we are fortunate to have in our lives!

Andrew and Kent met in their college days at Murray State University. They were the computer nerds and just flat out know how to have a good time! In fact, Andrew often says that he could put a group of his buddies together and create a sitcom. They became best friends and remain close despite their living distances.

Then come along the tall, volleyball playing, blonde from Illinois…Tracy who just so happened to meet Kent while they were on their Disney World of adventures College Internship. They are truly a beautiful and compatible couple (inside and out). They’ve been married for 4 years on October 12!!! To be quite honest…no one could even tell what year they’re on with their newly-wed demeanor :) I remember meeting them for the first time hoping that Andrew and I could be like that after so many years…we’re working on it and hope it keeps burning ;-)

Kent and Tracy are admirable and now live in their new home, Paducah, KY – where Kent is originally from. Over the weekend we shared how blessed we are with our careers and our spouses who deeply care about us.

We had a BLAST experiencing their Paducah Life (a magazine they were recently featured in). Paducah is much like a historical town with brick roads, murals by the river, and swanky restaurants where all the locals hang. In addition, EVERYONE knows Kent and even his brother-n-law, Todd, who also spent time with us. By the way, Andrew built Todd’s computer back in the college days and he showed us the antique piece (which still works!!) in his office. Todd is an AWESOME magician (on the side) who pretty much hops and entertains around town! If you can only imagine (beyond these pictures) our Paducah Life experience with the Bohanons and Kent’s sister, and brother-n-law!


Wondering why there is Ketchup and Mustard in syringes - it's for your human burgers! We went to a "freaking" AWESOME haunted house - Talon Falls on a Full Moon night!!
We visited Superman's hometown, Metropolis, IL (just next to Paducah, KY) and checked out the Superman shop - for the serious collectors. Anyhow, Andrew and I can never get serious...

Kent & Tracy...the power couple!

Yes!! Finally have the body I've always wanted.

Of course, we can't get by without Andrew and Kent making fun of his "tighty-whities!"

The shop...a little scary. Might not be the place to bring the little ones ;-)

We got to devour into the Dip-n-Dots. Originated in Paducah, KY!

Enjoyed the hometown's local wine shop where we not only tasted the locals wine and beer but I also lit up when they told me about their organic, strawberry beer - so strawberry-licious that you have to pick the seeds out of your teeth. Seriously, is it even legal?! Tracy, the auditor, who made Kent go back in and double check the receipt...they accidentally charged them full price on an item 75% off!! In the end, everyone agreed it was worth the $26 back in the wallet!

Real women...smoke cigars ;-)
At Max's Brick Oven - scrumptious and an AWESOME place to hang with the locals!

All their desserts are homemade...so we couldn't decide on one and shared all 4!! Talk about going home with a full belly!
