Mark Your Calendars!!

As most of you know, I auditioned for this musical about 2 weeks ago on a whim. I heard about through a guy we know that is friends with the director. I figured I might as well try...

WELL!!! I got two parts and am really excited. It's a pretty cool musical and I hope everyone gets to come see it. There are 2 weekends in July to choose so hopefully this is giving everyone enough notice :)

Snowboarding.. take 3!

So we did it again, and this time we convinced Kristen and Will to come along. I can speak for Sean, and myself... we had an awesome time. Will hurt himself a lot from falling, Woody kept practicing but hurt his wrist, and Kristen didn't like it.
All in all... it was an interesting evening!
I think I only fell a few times and Sean and I went at least 4 or 5 times down the mtn/hill. We took a different lift this time. I'm not as impressed with this lift. It throws you off of the lift. you'd think it'd be a little more gentle, but no! The first time we went up, Sean got a great view of Woody and I on our attempt at getting off of the lift. We both got thrown off of the lift and I fell onto Woody's snowboard. In case you don't know - snowboards are NOT very soft! On my right arm just above my armpit I have a pretty nasty black and blue bruise. The first night it was cute - part of it was in a heart shape. Then it just turned into a long ugly thing. Oh well. I'll still be going back for more!!! I think this next week we have to take a Saturday off, but after that, we'll be up on the mtn/hill trying to get even better :)

Snowboarding!

I know it sounds crazy coming from me, but Sean and I have fallen in love with snowboarding! We went yesterday with Woody and had a great time. We plan to go again next Saturday... hope Will and Kristen come!!! :)

Now you can get your baby's SUPER SIZE too!!!

Imagine this happening...



"Honey, I think we should have child."

"Sure... can we get it super size?"



LOL!



Well I guess down in Mexico this young 23 year old mom is proud of her new super size baby!!! (Not that they necessarily planned it, but I like to imagine they did... just because it sounds funny)

Happy sunday with two bluejays

I took P-nut out this afternoon and heard a peculiar sound... a bluejay! So after I got P-nut back inside I tried to get a few close-ups of the bird. Then I saw there were two! So I thought I'd share with you all these. They are not anything too special but I love blue birds... enjoy!

Play with fire - and you MIGHT get burned...

So most of you know that I'm getting into fire dancing. It's my new hobby - when I have time for that. Between reading, learning to swing with my poi (that's what you use to do fire dancing), line dancing, friends, and most important... Sean :), it's amazing I have time for sleep!

So I went to go into my e-mail today and there was link that I thought you guys would enjoy...

It's Frozen Outside!!!

So I was planning to go shopping today with Kristen. That isn't happening now. The roads seem fine, but my car is frozen shut and I don't feel like scraping it for a half hour. Plus I like to stay inside and stay warm when it gets like this. I took a few pictures to share with those who can't be here to see. I think Frozen trees are beautiful!

p.s. I have a flickr account too!!!

The "Ashley Treatment"

I think this is something that is really interesting. I can honestly say I do not know what I would do if this was me... but I understand both sides. Having experience with children and adults with developmental disabilities has really shown me a lot. Take some time to read about Ashley's story.

I'm interested to hear other people's opinion. I'll give more of an opinion once you read this!
