Steve and I bought our 1st home!!! We are so excited :)

outings with the girls

Courtney is getting married!!! Last night her sisters put on a personal shower for her. It was great, and so fun to catch up with her and Sandy. Courtney and I were princesses together for the Minneapolis Aquatennial...and she is going to be the first one to get HITCHED!!!!

A few weekends ago Ang, Brooke and I decided to go to a Twins game. We wanted to get out and do something different. As we were driving downtown to the game, Ang thought it would have been fun to bring Trish and Alec with us, two of her friends from a special ed camp. As we were already downtown it didn't seem possible to catch up with them. BUT to our surprise as we are walking through the Metrodome who do we see....TRISH, ALEC and 18 more of there friends. Needless to say I am not sure who won the game, or even what went on down on the field...but we were all pretty entertained!!!

Sandy and I got the hook up with John the other weekend...we were able to sit club level at the Minnesota Gopher hockey game. It was such a great time!!! Being royalty still has its perks!!!A beautiful Saturday plus a Jamba Juice....WONDERFUL!
Megan came to visit from Nebraska!
HITS with Ang!
My girls!!!!

OK OK OK :)

Yes Yes, I know that it has been quite sometime since I put up a post. So, after being bugged a bit I have decided to put up some recent pictures. I will also tell you that after 6 months of Steve being out in Utah, he is on the road TODAY...!!! He will be back in Minnesota today :) I am so excited. It will be so nice to have him back!

There you have it, a quick snap shot into one of my (good) days!!!

Hawaii bound...!!!

Off to Maui! Enjoy every moment...the sand between your toes, sitting on the beach sipping yummy drinks, listening to the birds chirpping, waking up to the waves crashing, long walks on the beach, nights by the ocean, the aroma of flowers everywhere, sunshinning all the time...and the list goes on and on and on...enjoy everything. I can't wait to see pictures and hear all about it! LOVE YOU TWO
