Best News I've Gotten Lately....

Today our friend, Josh, and his girlfriend (I forget her name now but she works for PRACS) came over to our house to check out the diggs. Their big news is that they're thinking of moving out here. By "out here" I mean to the state, but not this city. They're thinking about Ft. Collins. It doesn't matter-that's only an hour away and would be completely AWESOME! I wish we could transplant all of our friends to Colorado!

Today is also the wedding day of Justin and Terisa. I wish we could be there, but we couldn't. I hope she realized that if we could have worked it out, we'd have been there in a heartbeat. I also hope she knows how regretufl I am and how hard it is that we couldn't go. A persoons greatest friend only gets married once (right, terisa!)

We Have Friends.....?????

This weekend is firming up to be a busy one. It's Memorial Day weekend and the BBQ's invitations are out. Greg is off work tonight at 4:30-that's when the craziness begins. So here is what things look like:

Thursday Night-Relax, try to plan this next weeks meals and attend to our Netflix.
Friday-Groceries, errands etc. Clean this pigstye of a house.
Saturday-Josh is coming from Fargo to visit and Emily is playing with Camden for their bdays.
Sunday-Either BBQ party at Greg's receptionists place or do something with The Glowans.
Monday-Cul Du Sac Memorial Day party. This will prove to be real fun!

I actually think this is the first time in the (close to) two years of living here, that we have actually had a busy weekend with Friends. I mean, we've had visitors from ND/MN but that was mainly Family. This is different, this is all plans with Friends. Very exciting for me and I, for the first time in two years, feel like we are growing roots here.....

A Good Egg...

The past month, Greg and I finally made dental appointments for cleanings here in Denver. We have wonderful neighbors who referred us to a Dentist. This practitioner is someone who we really like and is caring, gentle and actually follows up with us. Unfortunately, I've got 3 cavities to be filled. Two were filled today and one appointment remains. Today I had two filled and had to go back later to have the fillings sanded as I was having trouble with the texture or something. Anyhow, this evening, the dentist called our house just making sure I was doing alright and was not in pain. I think he is a good egg.

Why is it that clothing these days is so ugly. I am an "average" sized, slightly on the short size and 28 years old. I shop online a lot. I rarely see anything which I feel is apperoperiate for a woman my size, age and is still practical for my day to day needs. Mostly, I get away with wearing jeans and a cardigan. It's begining to get hot in Colorado, and this outfit is no longer comfortable. What on earth am I going to do and why is everything made out of polyester? Go ahead and comment me if any of you people have found simple, neat and good looking clothes made out of natural fiber.

Motivation

It's been a REALLY long time since I've written in this blog. Call it Lack of Motivation. Emily is about to be Two years old and Drew has been crawling....need I say more, folks. I am thankful for my busy life and happy I get to watch my kids all day.

Next week we are going to Fargo. My little brother (not so little, really) is Graduating from MSUM. I am really so proud of him! We are also looking forward to seeing some friends and getting out for a night on the town. Woo-hoo! It's real funny how a person really starts missing Fargo.

Not a lot else going on around this place. This weekend I plan to do some shopping at Kohls and get some flowers for planters and so on. It's good to keep busy :)
