Something New

I just went rollerblading with Heather this morning. She talked me into it. I was just going to walk with her, but decided not to be a Nancy. And, although I mentioned it was morning, it was so blazing hot already. But, I have to say that the rollerblading was awesome. I haven't been since my senior year of high school. I went with some friends down at the Rio Rancho park and I remember it pretty vividly. It was a sight to behold. This time, however, I didn't fall at all. Pretty sure it was the double stroller holding me up. But, although it was a little tough, especially the uphill parts, it felt great. Props to John for giving me his old rollerblades! So, yahoo- I've found another way to work out and bring me closer to my goal. Thanks Heather!!

Father's Day

Ah-ha! I'm back. I'm looking out my window right now at solicitors walking up to my door. Boo. I hate those guys so much!! Sorry-harsh. But, seriously, why? Do companies really make that much on door-to-door sales? So, I'm just not answering the door, but I just realized that one of my kids left the front door cracked open a little bit. Crap. They have to know I'm home. Oh, well. I'm still now getting that door. OK, they're gone. So anyway, Father's Day. We had a pretty good one. We started out by making Ryan breakfast in bed. But, if any of you have any better ideas let me know, because I feel like the breakfast in bed thing is kinda dumb. We woke his trash up a little past nine with warm waffles, syrup, sausages, and juice. He was way excited. Then, we all gave him hugs, wished him Happy Father's Day, turned on Sports Center and then we all went downstairs and ate our breakfast. It was actually kinda funny. But, what else are you supposed to do? Within about 5 minutes Ry came down to join us. He kinda got lonely up there all by himself. Funny. And, darn it, we didn't surprise Ry with anything this year. I knew what he wanted, but I wanted him to pick it out. So, on Saturday we went to Lowe's and picked out a new BBQ. It's really nice. I'm excited to have some fun backyard BBQs. Do any of you have some really good BBQ recipes? I'd be very interested in those!! So, you saw the picture of at the top. Why am I having a hard time putting the picture down here? Why am I a blog idiot? But, the important thing is that I'm back. Yahoo!
