I went to watch the kids soccer games this morning.  Lainey’s team had a few players that were running late so Emery played til they got there.  She played goalie and you can see how she’s ready for action.

We watched the baby all weekend because Heather and David went to Mexico. He loved checking out the bunnies in the back yard.  All you had to say was, is there a bunny out there? And he’d run to the window to check.

Today was the Lost Dutchman 10k.  It was a rough one for me.  I’ve been hacking so much with this cold that I was out on the route and just couldn’t catch my breath.  So much so that I ended up throwing up.  I was only about a mile out so I turned around and went back to the start/finish.  I still got my medal but it was just my prize for showing up lol I’ll have to try again next year.

Today is my 63rd birthday.  The day started out with me finding a pretty bouquet of flowers on the counter when I woke up and then Kev buying me breakfast from Over Easy.  



Then I headed off to play softball.  There are three of us on the team that have birthdays all on February 3rd.  After our games we had some food and a delicious carrot cake our teammate Joyce made for us.

Spent the day at Mary’s playing cards.  Had a break in our game to go to Carambas for some day drinking. (actually for some yummy food, the margarita was an extra treat) Then they even got me some delicious Bundletts to celebrate my birthday.  




As of January 2009, I no longer have a job. It's not that I lost it, but after 26 1/2 years of working at the Post Office, I retired. According to everyone I know, I don't do anything all day, so I decided to start a blog. Now I can blog about what I don't do all day. I am married to Kevin, who is the most awesome husband I could ever have. It's because of him, that I do not go to work any more. I love that and I love him for that. Between the 2 of us we have 4 children. Hunter 31, Heather 29, Paul 28 and Alicia 26.
