water slide

2011-11-28T06:37:00.001-08:00

This is our favorite slide. You drop straight down for a bit and then the speed shoots you inside this big cone and the speed makes you travel high up and back and forth on the sides of the walls like skate boarders do but higher.We try for above the white line.Up to four can ride together not exceeding 700 lbs.It's a blast, my favorite ever.

Spring time and love

2010-03-31T14:08:00.000-07:00

It's so funny how every year we get so excited about spring and 70 degree weather.This year with all the snow we all are especially excited.It is almost like getting gifts of beautiful warm days.Why does it make me so happy and so content.
This is the first spring I am working full-time but I have arranged to be off by four everyday so I believe I am going to be able to stay on at my new job with happiness.
These last couple months have been the happiest I have been in about 14 years when I first met my husband. I feel like I am in love like that all over again. Springtime and fresh love,ah, there is nothing like it.

Snowed in

2010-01-30T07:13:00.000-08:00

Got off work at 11:00 pm last night and try to make my way home in the snow storm and I started laughing because on the way to my car the snow was so aggressive, large and swift that I was truly in my first snow storm experience.I have driven in lots of snow before but have never experienced the way it was coming down.It was a blizzard and it made me laugh.There was no cars on the road in the path I had to take to get home and I was thankful.Except when I was out in the country I lost the road completely.That was a new experience too and very nerve racking.The snow they say fell 2 inches in an half an hour so buy 11 no one had driven on this new blanket of snow that I was trucking through.It was weird, no tracks anywhere.
So I gave my self a pep talk and luckily made it home.Well almost, I slid off the road on a hill by my house and landed in our neighbors parking spots that were made along side the county road.They were parked on the other side by there house so I just rested there and put on my snow boots and walked on in.
We ended up so far with 6 inches and a snow day for me off work.I was scheduled to be back at 6:30 am this morning, oh shucks:)snowed in.
