Memorial Day Weekend

Hope you all enjoyed your weekend.....and hope you all took a moment to think about all the soldiers that have given up their lives for our country.....especially our Steve. I know that I can speak for a lot of us when I say that Memorial Day will always be looked at differently for us.

Colorado Fun

Just got back last night from a wonderful surprise visit to Denver, CO for my friend Patty's Graduation! Flew out with her Mom and totally surprised her! We had a great time and I am kind of sad since this will most likely be my last time out to Colorado in a very long time since my friend and her husband are moving to Philly this week. We had some really good times in Colorado, but look forward to more in Philly!

Great Home Safety Tip

For Car Owners with Car Alarms:


So I received a newsletter from my company's legal dept. which included the following tip:

Put your car keys beside your bed at night. If you hear a noise outside your home or someone trying to break in, just press the panic button for your car alarm. The alarm will be set off and the horn will continue to sound until you turn it off or your car battery dies. It's a security alarm that you already have, and requires no installation. Odds are that you will scare away the burglar and your neighbors will all be staring out their windows to see what is going on.
(This came from a Neighborhood Watch Coordinator)

I think this is a good idea when you are home alone and want some extra protection!

Weekend

So Michael's parents are coming down tonight to stay with us so we can celebrate Mother's Day. I am making Chicken Fettucini Alfredo. Then I still need to come up with some recipe for Brunch tomorrow. We may also take them to the Domes, or something....maybe the new Discovery World Museum. Sunday we'll be spending the day down in K-town with my Mom. Lots of fun!

Spring Cleaning

So yesterday I left work early......and started to clean our bedroom, which has been quite a mess for months now. I cleaned out our closet, so now we can actually walk in there now and got rid of 2 huge garbage bags of clothes that I never wear. I also cleaned my bathroom...and Michael helped me re-arrange the bedroom furniture. It feels so good to have everything so clean and organized. Yay for Spring Cleaning!!

Eventful Weekend

So the Brewer's game was a lot of fun on Friday....and they kicked the Pirate's Butts'!!! Go Brewer's!

Saturday we had some people over to celebrate Cinco de Mayo.....everyone brought in lots of tasty Mexican food....I really enjoyed Tam's Drunken Chicken!! We also had a lot of Margarita's and Mojito's to celebrate. Glad everyone had a great time.

Yesterday was awesome....michael and I went Mini golfing with Tam....also took a few swings in the Batting cages which was a lot of fun. Afterwards we went to see Spiderman at my company's new Theatre. Then we saw Kathleen Madigan perform there as well, and she put on a really great show.

Fun times!

Go Brewers

So tomorrow night I am taking my Niece to her very first Brewer's Game!
I am also getting my legs waxed by my friend Karyn who is going to school at the Aveda Institute.....wish me luck! :-)
