A long pause...

Well I guess it seems like that anyways... I've just found myself so busy with work, home and other stuff that I haven't really had time to write anything, upload pics... All that good stuff. But from catching up with everyone elses blogs today, it seems like that's what's going on with everyone else too. So I don't feel too guilty. Just a little bit. :)~

Let's see... The last time I wrote I was going to meet my friend Kimmy's new hunny, Jeremy. I am so happy for her.... I did end up meeting him and he was just so sweet to her and loving!!! What an upgrade from her last man!!! I hope they last a very long time. He seems to make her happy. Time to get married and have some kiddos!!! LOL, just kidding.... too soon for that. But they're well on their way to happily ever after. Here's their first official couple pic.

Next up is Noah's new school pic. These pics turned out looking so mature. We all freaked out over them!!! My little guy is getting to be so grown up these days!! I underestimate how fast he's growing up. It's amazing!!! My big second grader!!!
He is on Honor Roll again for second trimester, and only has one B on his report card. Last trimester he had 2 B's. So we told him that if he brought home a report card with straight A's, he could pick one friend to take to Johns Incredible Pizza Co.(like Chuck E Cheese on crack!!!!)with him. So he is hell bent on getting that last B up to an A by the end of the school year. I hope he does it, I know he can!!! Well, here is his second grade spring pic.

Moving on... Our family walks... My walks alone and with Noah and Obi have been so successful that Mark has decided to join in... The last few Sundays we have been taking family walks, around 4 to 5 miles each time. Uphill mostly so we can get the cardio pumping!!!! This last weekend we hiked a little bit into the back mountains here in Moval and we even saw one of those wild burros try to come over the top of the hill... (That's where my running began!!!!) I freaked when I saw this burro bring a friend over the top of the mountain and start coming down. Mark was laughing at me but I didn't want to find out if it was friendly or not so I ran!!! Hahahah... Here's a terrible pic of me (no makeup!!! ARgh) But a great memory pic of the family!!!!

Last Friday night a few of the girls from work, Kimmy and myself decided to have a girls night out. We got dressed up, and headed south to Pechanga resort and casino for some dinner and dancing!!!! (Not in that order...ha) We hung out till nearly 2 am THEN had dinner!!!!! What a great time!!! I think we got home around 330!!! And I had to be at work at 645!!! OHHHHH was I tired!!!

That first pic was me doing "fashion show" with the outfit I ended up wearing. (Mark calls it "fashion show" when I change my clothes a bunch of times before I figure out what I am going to wear)
This next pic is of me and my friends from work. Kimmy was off doing her own thing during this pic. You know Kimmy!!!!

Good times... That's my girl Christi and my other friend Veronica, by the way... I love these girls!! They are awesome!!!

Well, it's 10 pm already and I have to be at work by 630 am, so I better get some sleep. Tomorrow is work as usual, and the same for Saturday. Sunday is Easter and we'll be going to my moms house for Easter breakfast and then to Marks brothers house for Easter dinner and family time. I think I heard that we are bringing our Rock Band game over to have a family band night!!! It'll definitely be interesting!!!!

Well, till next time kids, behave as always!!!! And don't do anything I wouldn't do... :)~

Love,

Bliggidy Bloggin....

Man, is March flying by or what??? I can't believe it's almost half way done!!! Next thing you know it's St. Paddys Day, then Easter, then April!!!!


Life is good out here in the IE (Inland Empire as we call it....) Weather has been pretty awesome!!! Cool in the mornings and at night, and nice and warm during the days. This time change has brought me a wider range of time to go walking, which is great because we usually have to cut our walks down shorter due to it getting dark so early.


This last Sunday Mark, Noah, Obi and I took a 5 mile walk!!! It was so awesome!!! We counted the walk I usually do and it measured up to about 2 1/4 miles...I do that one Tuesdays and Thursdays... On Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, I probably walk almost 2 miles.. Whats great about these walks is that I've found uphills and downhills so it's actually a pretty good cardio workout!!! I'm loving these walks... Here are some pics from a park we stopped at during our looooooonnnnnngggggg walk....






Last week, we went karting like usual except Mark came with us too!!! I bought him a membership so he could race with us too!!! He did great!!! He even got some ping pong in with a couple of the guys. Great times!!!

So there's a few things that are developing that I need to ask for support with. Some good, some not so great... but either way please keep me in your thoughts. I know things will work out the way they are supposed to, I just hope it's all in a positive way. I know I'll never be dealt anything I can't get through, but getting through things is sometimes very difficult. Thanks for your prayers in advance.

I may get back on here tomorrow night... We'll see. I am going to meet Kimmy's new boyfriend tomorrow night. We're going to meet for dinner. So I'm going to get some pics and hopefully put them up asap!!!! They're so cute and sappy!!! Awww....new found love!!!! I am so happy for my friend!!! She's finally herself again!!!! And even better than that... She's still losing weight and exercising too!!! Atta girl!!!

K well, goodnight everyone.

The New Layout...

Man, my blog layout had been a wreck for a while there and I couldn't figure it out, so I decided to go to try the classic templates and just happened to find this one on a cool site. So after a lot of tweaking I finally got my pics on here but decided to make my links private... Or just keep them on my favorites on my home computer....

Oh and by the way, welcome to blogging Ann!!!! I'm so glad you're on here now!!!!

Well, I hope everyone had a great weekend.... I had a great one... Went to my friends b-day party on Friday, worked Saturday, went to a bbq that night.... And on Sunday, we hung out at home then had dinner @ my sisters house and came home to play some ROCKBAND!!!! I am so in love with that game!!!!

Well, I better get going...

Love,

Me
