Update...

Ok...I am trying to get this blog updated before I leave the country again...does Ames, IA count as out of country??? OK...Melbourne it is...

I will get the pictures of Singapore, KL, and South Africa from this spring up...

Great Weekend...

So we packed up on Friday and headed to Keyhole Lake in WY. The entire dirve up it rained on us...overcast, chilly...not a good start to the weekend. We arrived to a little drizzle, but not bad. That evening...it rained, the wind blew, and I was beginning to worry about the weather all weekend. But alas...the sun came out and what a day Saturday was. We fished inthe morning, tubed in the afternoon, and then fished some more in the evening.

Good time was had by all.

Sunday we packed up and decided instead of driving straight home...to detour over to Devil's tower. We took funny pictures and then made the 5 hour drive home.

Favorite Author...

My new favorite author is Laurie Notaro

I have read a couple of her books...ok maybe all of them.

The Idiot Girls' Action-Adventure Club
Autobiography of a Fat Bride
I Love Everybody (and other Atrocious Lies)
We Thought you would be Prettier
An Idiot Girl's Christmas
There's a (slight) Chance I Might Be Going to Hell

But the latest is by far the funniest...

An Idiot Girl and the Flaming Tantrum of Death - Reflections of Revenge, Germophobia, and Laser Hair Removal

Facebook

So there is a reason I have culled over 100 people as my "friends" on facebook...

If you have been culled...you have to ask yourself...Why?!?

Flying

I have to ask myself...

Why am I paying for Joel to get his pilot's licence?? Could he not think of this while he had a job?

Oh well...at least he is not playing rockband and Call of Duty all day anymore.

Great Quote

So I found this quote on facebook...

"Can't spell families without lies."

Pretty much sums it up.

Rain, Hail, and Tornados OH My

So what is the deal with the Colorado weather?? We have had rain at least once a day for about 3 weeks, I had 5 straight days of hail (not good for the garden), and what is up with the tornados?

Before I left for MN we had tornado warnings...and even a funnel cloud spotted in Severance (actually just SE from our house). Then I get to MN...and those little bastards followed me there.

I must admit...my yard looks great...I don't think I have ever seen it so green.
