Good News!

Here is some good news...

For those of you who don't know...... About 3 weeks ago, Zenon had an accident at work. He was borrowing some keys from a coworker. Long story short, his coworker threw the keys across the room. Just after throwing the keys, Zenon's coworker realized he wasn't looking. She called out his name to get his attention and when he turned and looked.... BAM! The keys went right into his eye. Eeewww!

So after having stitches in his eyeball, several doctor appointments and 3 weeks off of work, Zenon has finally gotten the "OK" that everything will be great! He can see just fine and his eye is healing quickly. Good thing too because I was starting to get tired of giving him back rubs. Wait a second .......

Family Weekend

Ok, ok, ok. I know it's been a week since I have written anything. It has been a crazy week! I had my twin brother in town. I was trying to squeeze in as much time as possible with him before he left for home (Colorado) on Sunday. It was so good to see him! He didn't bring his family with him... this time. I'll just have to make a trip up to see all of them.

Eric, Jason, Zenon and I went to see the movie "Vantage Point" on Thursday night. It was pretty good. It was like watching "Groundhog Day" but with more action. However, this movie was an award winner compared to the movie we saw on Friday. It was my younger brother's brilliant idea to see "10,000 B.C." (thanks Jay!) If any of you are considering watching this film, let me save you the money and a headache. DON'T! You'll thank me later!

However, we took lemons and made lemonade. About 40 minutes into the movie, we started to make jokes about the dialogue of the movie.... just to stay awake. Next thing we knew, we were laughing so hard we had forgotten about how bad the movie was. Oh, don't worry, we didn't disturb anyone else watching the movie. The theater was so empty that it was nearly impossible for anyone to hear us anyway. (This should have been our first clue about the movie when we walked in.) In any case, we had so much fun joking around that it was almost worth the $10.00 movie tickets.

Thanks, Eric, for such a great weekend! I love you!

Too Cute!

I took some pictures of my dog the other day. I realized I just didn't really have any of him. So, I feel better now that I have done it. Isn't he the most!

Spring Break

Although I didn’t get a full week off of work like Z for Spring Break, I still wanted to go on a small trip for the weekend. So, we packed our bags and were off.

We decided to go to Phoenix, AZ and visit Z’s best friend. We went to the Arizona Diamondbacks vs. Los Angeles Angels baseball game. It was great! Cool air, warm sun… it couldn’t get any better. Oh yeah, Rob Base (the person that sings “It Takes Two To Make A Thing Go Right”) was sitting about 4 rows in front of us. Sad… that is my claim to fame for the weekend. The Angels won the game in the bottom of the 10th inning by one! We also made a side trip to IKEA! LOVE that place! It is always a must.

We left Phoenix on Sunday and drove up to Flagstaff, AZ. It snowed almost the entire way up. I was excited because it was the only snow I got to be in for the entire winter season. We stopped at Oak Creek Canyon to take pics.

It was a relaxing trip. Just what I needed. I hope next year’s trip is longer than 3 days!

I'm A Blogger!

Well, I finally did it! I'm a blogger. I must admit... I have my extended family to thank for it. I have been reading their blog pages for the last year. I have been inspired! Not only have I been able to find out what has been going on in my family's lives, but they have been good examples for me to do the same for my family and friends.

Now, I will say that I don't believe my life is very interesting.... enough to keep the attention of everyone. Never fear, go and surf for something else on the web. You won't hurt my feelings. I'll never know.

So... ladies and gents... here we go!
