Dreams to Reality

Yesterday Mike went to Metro to meet with an Aviation department counselor to discuss his goals and the classes he needs to take to get there. The counselor he met with was really nice and helpful, and she was able to register him for four classes for the fall! He’s taking public speaking, english, and [...]

Let’s Play Ball!

Mike and I are joining a softball league that starts next Friday. We’ll be playing on a team with some of the friends we’ve made through church. I’m really looking forward to it! I haven’t played any team sports in forever and I think it’ll be a lot of fun. I’m a little nervous though [...]

Peep

Yes — I’m still alive. I know it’s been well over two months, and I really don’t have any great excuse for being MIA. I think the longer time passes, and the more I have to catch up on, the less I feel like doing it. Not to mention my workdays have become incredibly busy, [...]

Adventures in the Big City

I’ve been MIA for the last almost-month because we’ve been super busy. Plus, apparently I’ve used all my picture space on WordPress and blogs just aren’t as much fun without pictures. In my opinion at least. I think I can purchase some more space though so I’ll look into that. Meanwhile, here’s a pictureless update. [...]

Christmas, New Years, and Everything in Between

 Christmas Re-Cap
So now that Christmas is long over, it’s about time I write something on it. It feels like it was months ago already. Where to start? How about with Christmas Eve. Mike and I hosted Christmas Eve at our house this year. I didn’t have to work so I spent the day preparing food [...]

New Puppies!

I’m back! I was off work starting Dec. 24 up until this past Monday, Jan. 5. I pretty much stayed off the internet during that time since I have to be on it EVERY day, ALL day for work. It was such a nice break. I was only off for a week and a half [...]

The Dog Whisperer

Last weekend some friends of ours went out of town and we watched their dogs. They have two, or should I say 1.25 because the second can’t weigh more than a few pounds. Add that to our two dogs and we had a pack! It was hilarious though because all of the dogs loved to [...]

A Taste of the Big Apple

Yesterday Mike and I were driving to work and I heard a commercial on the radio that said all Southwest flights out of Denver are currently 50 percent off. I was half asleep so I wasn’t sure if I heard right, but when I got to work I checked out the website the commercial mentioned, www.southwest.com/denver, [...]

In the Spirit of Spontaneity

So yesterday I was talking to Alice, one of my bestest friends, on gchat. We were talking about our upcoming company-wide shutdowns (different companies) between Christmas and New Year’s and what we were going to do during that time. Neither of us had much planned, and the next thing I know she’s booking a flight to [...]

It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year

My favorite time of the year has finally arrived — Christmas season! I just love all the festive lights, music and decorations popping up all over. And the best part about living here in Denver? We get a white Christmas season! We’ve had so much snow lately and I love it!
I’m getting ahead of myself [...]
