More Pictures

Here are some pics I snapped with my camera phone the last couple of weekends.

This one is Gixxer, asleep in the floorboard after spending the night with Sawyer and Lucy (the night of the Bachelorette party).  He didn’t even make it out of the neighborhood before he conked out.

This is Niagara Falls on 5/26/2008.  We drove briefly to the Canadian side of the falls on our way home back to Kentucky after Kelly’s wedding.  The last picture is one of the Maid of the Mist; the boat that takes tourists into the heart of the falls.

On our way home, both Jill and Gixxer decide the trip is most comfortable in Daddy’s lap while he’s driving.  :)

Kelly’s Wedding is OVER!!! Yay!

We got through the wedding, yay!  There was sooooo much planning and prepping, and I am so glad it’s finally done!  The wedding was beautiful, and Kelly looked amazing in her dress.  Here’s a pic of me (left), the groom, and the Maid of Honor.  Trust me, this dress looks much better than the one I made, hahaha.  (Click the pic for a larger view).

Fun Bachelorette Party!

Kelly, Kelley, and I stayed overnight at Caesar’s Indiana for Kelly’s Bachelorette party. Here we are, drunk off our asses, in the hotel room. I barely remember taking it, but I do remember Kelly telling me I looked ugly in the picture, hahahahaha. New Yorkers, LOL

Folded arms are an open invitation for a visit from Gixxer. Eric was OUT after the shower and didn’t even notice that little Gixxer had cozied up with him.

Mmmm sexy

I love it when hubby shows off his cute little butt, LMAO

Black Mulch

I bought a truckload of black mulch yesterday and spread it over the beds in front of the house.  My hands were black as well as my clothes by the time I stopped (it started raining).  It does wash off easily though.  I had never seen black mulch until we moved to Kentucky; maybe it’s supposed to match the black wood fences.

I’m shrinking…

I’m down a solid 20 lbs. It’s probably closer to 25, but I can’t really remember what my starting weight was. Argh, shrinking is such a sloooow process. I celebrated with french fries and candy, muhahahahaha. (That probably doesn’t help much with speeding things up!)

Tanning Update

Now up to 7 minutes without burning. Too funny. Should I try for 8 or not?

Oh Snap!

www.snapfitness.com

Jerry and I joined Snap Fitness last week. They have opened a new gym in Mount Sterling. It’s awesome! They have all brand-new equipment from Matrix Fitness. The ellipticals and treadmills all have Polar telemetry integrated into them, so I can wear my Polar chest strap and my heart rate will display on the equipment. So far there has never been a wait to get on the ellipticals (or any other machine for that matter). They have 4 TVs on the wall with the audio set to FM frequencies, so I can put on my headphones, dial in the FM station and tune everything else out as I watch TV. We also have free reign of the remote, so if I want to change the station I can. They use Dish Network, so I already know all of my favorite station’s channel numbers. :)
Here’s the best part: $25 per month, and I get $200 of it back from my employer. That’s like getting 8 months for free!
