Aidan's T-ball Antics

Aidan waiting for his coach to throw the ball.

Gauging the ball, trying to find his distance. Still not syncing up well with the ball yet.

Sisterhood of the traveling Pants II

Katie and I saw the movie last night. It was your typical teenie bobber show, but I loved it. Of course my favorite is Alexis Bledl. My goodness, could she be any more beautiful???!!! And, the fact that she's quite older than the ages that she plays is amazing. Of course, I think Katie is under the impression she can't take me anywhere as I almost tried to pick a 'disgruntling' with a group of about 6 teenagers who just couldn't shut the heck up. So as I nonchalantly 'shushed' them into behaviour I was the receiver of several childish stares. That's right kids, bring it on! :)

Gluteous Maximus

You know there are 3 major butt muscles. After working out for the past 2 weeks straight, I feel as if I've torn every single one of them. Especially the ones around the outer edges. How can they hurt so freakin' much??? Although to my credit, I still woke up this morning, hopped on the treadmill and ran for 1 mile. Afterwards it did feel quite a bit better. We'll see about tonight when we have to lift weights for our workout.

Clone Wars The Movie

Yes, I actually asked off of work early so I could surprise my boys by taking them to see the new clone wars movie that started today. Why.....because I'm a mom. Not that I don't like shoot them up, slash them, robots, robots, robots, weird things, and of course jabba the hut *sigh*..........but....... sometimes it's not my type of movie. And then of course to add to my degredation, the whole theatre (45 people for the 5:15 showing) clapped after it was done. I have to admit, my favorite part was the new girl jedi. At least I had somebody I could relate to in the movie.

Hawaii Pics Part 2

We snorkled at Hanauma Bay (wasn't very nice, the water was dirty, and not many fish. :() From left to right....my sister in law Lori, my brother David, Chris performing his Robinson Caruso look, and then me.

My mom and dad looking out at the Missourri battleship.

Taken from the Arizona looking up through the slots.

We saw dolphins!!! Yes, we took a catamaran out into the ocean and got to see a large pod tagging alongside the boat. Was very neat. When the motor was turned off and we started snorkling, they skeedaddled though. Although to take their place was a 3-4ft baby reef shark.

Hawaii Pics Part 1

This picture was taken at the Hale Koa, which was the first hotel we stayed at.

This picture and the one below were both taken at our condo resort we stayed at. The condo was 5 star all the way, called the Ko Olina. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.......

Did I mention Chris and I spent a wonderful week in Hawaii???? We got to go snorkling, visit the folks and my brother and sister-in-law and relax. Okay, so maybe relaxing wasn't really on the agenda. Attached are some pictures.

Almost a month!

It's been almost a month since I posted! How can that be???!!! Well...... Here are 5 reasons why
1. Zena suffered her horrible emergency. (Because I had too much money lying around)
2. We felt horrible and took the boys to the movies twice in one week
3. I'm still teaching lessons out at the barn (I love more students, and get a kick out of newbies!)
4. Chris tied me up (that's another post not for this forum)
5. We started p90x (2nd time is the charm!) two weeks ago and I can't lift my fingers
