Vegas is a crazy place (as most know). We had such a great time taking in Vegas. We skipped from casino to casino, did a little gambling , did a little dancing, did a little drinking but most of all we enjoyed our time together. People seem to always come back with amazing, crazy stories but I don't have one of those stories, instead I just have a little extra cash in my pocket and a great memory of another lil vacation with the foo. The foo and Cesar. Laughing Buddha. The foo and I at dinner. Lots of yummy surf and turf! We had such a good time in Vegas but it's so nice to be back home with the lil one.

The foo and I are heading to Vegas for the weekend! woo- hoo !!!!

I've been trying to get my butt back into shape lately so I can start tri training in April. I have been on a detox program for a few days and after I get back from Vegas this weekend I am fasting for a few days. I've been eating ton of blueberries which are very high in antioxidants and great for detoxing. I only wish I could get my hands on some blueberries from the Gilman farm back in Massachusetts, those were the best blueberries in the world. I'll settle for what we've got here and cross my fingers that we make a trip back out there this summer! Hope everyone gets a chance to get out an enjoy the beautiful weather!!!

Each one of these hammers has a different purpose and each has it's own character. Most of them have names and the older and more beat up and used they get, the more beautiful they are. Can't wait for summer to come back around so I can start swingin my hammers again.

1. If my hands or my feet get too hot i start feeling claustrophobic . 2. I have always wanted to go to culinary school and thanks to "the foo" I am. 3. I could eat a whole jar of Nutella in one sitting if given the chance. 4. When I was a little kid (about 6 or 7) you couldn't tell if I was a little boy a a little girl. Definitely a tomboy. It killed me at that age to put on a dress. 5. I have to hit the snooze button at least 5 or 6 times before I get out of bed, but I love getting up early in the mornings. 6. I want to learn absolutely everything there is to know about flagstone. 7. I miss my grandmother and grandfather, I feel like I missed out on opportunities to really get to know them as a kid. They would spend some summers here and I would spend some time in Czech but I still feel void that will never be filled. 8. I think my little brother is one great kid. 9. I sometimes wish I could hop back into a slalom course and have the ability to shred through it lik...

Another beautiful weekend is slowly coming to a close. There is nothin better then having a lazy Sunday morning with Sponge Bob, pumpkin spice pancakes, a great cup of coffee and my two favorite people sitting next to me, a trip to the shoe store to buy some new shoes, a trip to the park to run around, and to top it all off a football party for a big football game. Ahhhhhh , Sunday fun days ROCK!!!! Happy Super Bowl Sunday!!

Up at the house they are EVERYWHERE! We've had six huge bull elk (I hear that's unusual) hanging out in the neighborhood . I keep sending Connor pictures of them as a tease. You see.....Connor this year didn't catch (kill) an elk. He and his buddy Mitch both had tags and neither one of them filled them. Poor guys hiked for days in the cold and not one shot. I (almost) feel bad sending them the pics every couple of days of these huge beast outside our door. I think they are even becoming friends with our chickens. :)
