{me and max}

relay for life 2008.

i missed it in 2009....i think we need to make a team.

who is in?

{thanks for the walk}

thanks for the walk roller girl!

{walkin' in a winter wonderland}

zac left about a half hour ago to walk with meg.

john and madison just walked out the door.

i love the snow.

{new sunday tradition}

happy sunday morning.

madison and i walked down to starbucks this morning. about a mile and a half one way.....had a coffee and split a pastry. then we went to albertson's to grab a can of chili for lunch later.

we decided that if the weather is cooperating this will be our new sunday morning tradition.

{don't try this at home}

omg....my poor bff. we just got back from a walk and she bit it off of a curb.

it's really not all that funny.....she has rocks and crap stuck in her hands.

that is a real pisser.

we had just watched a character on their new wii fall flat on their ass before we left and missy said just before we left, "watch....that will be me."

holy poo.

{visit from the vegas hodson's}

had a great visit with the hodson's from vegas this week.

here are 3 of our 4 boys walking to the track at south albany. where is uncle grant?

{let me introduce you.....}

to the very best.....

relay for life crew......

in the entire city of a-town.

{relay for life}

the morning after.

relay for life was a blast.

thanks to everyone on our team.

more pictures to come very soon!!

{last week of school}

seriously.

my son is never available for pictures and when i do want to take one he is never very happy about it. i had to dig this one out of the "archives" just to prove we do have a son, as well as a daughter.

spring football camp started today. he is in heaven. nice that he can drive himself to and from practice. half rack next week - wosu camp the week after that.

last week of school. i have a feeling i will be seeing a lot of this crew at my house this summer.

madison cleaned her whole room for me last night without even being asked. it was such a nice treat. she is such a sweet girl. and a little ocd like her mom.

i think madison is looking foward to a well deserved break and a chance to not be the youngest at school next year.

6th grade is hard....don't let anyone tell you it isn't.

grandma pat fell again tonight. we were in the e.r. for 3 hours. all is well....i suppose.

walked 2 miles with my bff.....it's 8:30 pm and i am just now sitting down to take a break.

why can't adults have a summer vacation too?

{walk it out}

had a little pizzamore freak out.

walked home.

needed to walk and my bff had already gone without me.

ya gots to do what ya gots to do.

i would use our newest phrase here, but it might be inappropriate for visiting guests.

i will abbreviate.....

_uckity, _uck, _uck.

walk it out.

{diet pepsi lime}

i have discovered the best drink in the world. you have to try this.

i am so obsessed...

missy and i walked last night and when we came home we each had one with a huge glass of crushed ice.

heaven.

.....and, i just have to say that i was so grateful last night to have an air conditioned house and a fridge with an ice maker.

i have been married for 19 years and this will be the first summer with either....

so thankful.

{back on track}

finally got back on track and went on a walk with my best bizzle.

seriously....

i think that everybody needs to go on a walk with us.

it is the funniest thing you have ever done. we laugh the entire 3 miles.

i think i will start blogging our {daily discussion}.

if anyone wants to walk the prerequisite is that you have to be able to get ready in

{5 minutes flat}

when it's time to walk...it's time to walk...or we will talk ourselves out of it.

check back for walking updates.
