Thankful Thursdays

I'm thankful for:

• the amazing thunderstorms we've had the last few days. God is amazing.
• the fact that a three day weekend is just two weeks away.
• my husband who keeps me laughing and smiling when I need it most.

One of my Favorite Things

Thunderstorms

Happy Mother's Day!

Love you, Mom!

This Should Be Interesting

The weathermen are predicting some nasty storms here tomorrow... it'll be interesting and I'm excited for what could be the first significant storm of the season. (If you spent any significant amount of time growing up in "Tornado Alley" you'd understand why storms can be rather intriguing. You spend so much time in the basement hiding from them that you get to a point you're more interested than scared.)

Dear Heavenly Father, I am humbled by awesome power but ask that if this storm is as big as our small minds can anticipate and comprehend, that you keep everyone safe. In Your name, Amen.

Thankful Thursdays

I'm thankful for:

• a weekend with no big plans
• friends that got to come visit
• bike rides with Mike

Cruisin'

Mike and I FINALLY got bikes.

This is mine, a Diamondback Serene:

Mike put a basket on the front of it for me so that we can pick up milk on a ride if we want to and so that Lily can come with us every so often.

This is Mike's (the Lamborghini Urbano):

Mike put a pedometer thing on his so we know how fast "we" are going, how far we've ridden, etc.

If the bikes and mentioned accessories don't give you an idea of how we feel about biking, I don't know what does. At least we're having fun riding bikes together. :-)

Long Time No Post

Hello, blog world!

I took a little blogging hiatus, somewhat intentional and somewhat not, but much needed either way.

I don't have any pictures of anything but some highlights of the last few weeks have been:

• Mike's Mom visiting
• Successfully completing a big shin-dig for work
• the end of AWANA for the summer
• getting the basement bathroom fixed - FINALLY!
• my dear friend, Bev, coming to visit with her fiance (and we found my bridesmaid dress)

Maybe I'll get better at blogging again soon...
