A Gift For Myself

I have posted about the fabulous Jen, and promised to return to that post. Well above is her custom stationary creation of my Rye dog. I am just in love with it and can't wait to get my hot little hands on the delivery in the mail. I highly recommend anyone who is in need of a custom card, stationary, invite, etc to reach out to her. And one of my favorite things about her company Lavish Design Studio is the following remark on their site: "We work directly with eco-friendly companies and all of our products are printed on Green e-certified paper. We remain committed to providing lovely paper goods that don't tread on the Earth."

Blogging

I wrote a blog entry for our company's blog - feel free to check it out!

Another Great Weekend

This weekend was supposed to be spent camping, however the weather had other plans as it snowed in the mountains on Thursday, and the temps were cooler than we had hoped. So, instead we spent Sunday in Boulder hiking, shopping and having a picnic lunch.

Sunday I took a 3+ hour nap, and tested my new bike. I didn't get as much house cleaning done as I would have liked, but sometimes that is the way life needs to be lived.

The fabulous Jen sent me my image of Rye dog she had been working on (more to be posted about that later). Needless to say I am so excited with the way it turned out!

Congrats to Dan and Amanda who were married this weekend, wishing you a house full of sunshine, hearts full of cheer, love that grows deeper each day of the year.

Glad to report that Max has returned from a very very very long trip to the sandbox. I'm glad that he made it home safely from Iraq - and I can't wait to get together with him when he returns to Colorado in July for some much needed R&R while on leave.

All is Quiet on the Home Front

Last night we had our first kickball game of the season. Swift Kick in the Grass faced off against Multiple Scorgasms. We tried to hold our own but ended up losing by 1 point in the final inning.

Fun site of the day: Design your own Kleenex box

Ever thine. Ever mine. Ever ours.

Thanks Lauren for the photo!

OMG! I had such a great time at the movies on Friday night with the girls. We started out at Corridor 44 with drinks and some food. The movie lived up to all my hopes and I really enjoyed it.

Saturday started with a couple of quick errands to get some food and such for an afternoon of grilling and volleyball at Wash Park with some of Jason's coworkers. I also dropped Rye dog off at the groomers (or Doggie Spa as I tell her). The summer sun was shining and being at the park just made me remember how much I enjoy just relaxing and spending time lounging.

Sunday we headed up to The Norgren's for a big family BBQ. I enjoyed a few margs sitting on the back patio in the sun. It was such a nice afternoon.

On the way home Jason and I stopped at Target (and gasp) I bought a bike. I know there are few readers from work who will make fun of the purchase as they are hard-core bike junkies (as noted in a previous post regarding Yeti Fest). However, I think that I will enjoy my cheap bike this year (since I ended up saving a lot of money on it - however that should be a post of its own after I had a horrible experience with Target and in the end it worked out ok and I got a cheap bike). Anyway it is cute for this summer and then next summer I hope to get the one I have been keeping my eye on at REI.
