I bought a house!!

I bought a house!! After all that time spent looking at houses making several offers and being out-bid...I finally got one! I'm sooooooooooo excited! I should be able to close in about 2-3 weeks if everything goes right! The house is in Woods Cross and it has a large yard, 0.25 acre, with a huge patio and deck...and a hot tub! I'll have to do some minor upgrades. The previous owners took all of the light fixtures and switches, stove/oven and fridge...those must have been some awesome light switches! This picture was taken in early spring by the realtor; now, all of the trees are filled with leaves (that will be so much fun in the fall). I'm just so excited!

5K...more like 5000K!

I did it! I totally "RALKED" it...meaning I'm totally awesome and I ran/walked it, all 5K of it! The run was on Saturday and I started getting a cold/allergies on Friday. So, Friday night I took some Nightquil before going to bed to help me sleep. I only got 3 hours of sleep, the cold medicine did not wear off before the run. Needless to say, I was not feeling SUPER! And the run seemed to just keep going...and going...and going. BUT, I did it! It was a fun experience...and I think I'll start training for a triathalon now...maybe...

Time Flew

Well, I guess I've just been having so much fun I forgot to blog. Okay, that's not the entire truth. I've been really busy with work and life in general. Things are going great; life is great! I promise to post soon with new pics and life updates!

twice baked potato

Do you know what a twice baked potato is?

My brother is certain that a twice baked potato is when you bake a potato in the oven until it is cooked. Then you cut it open put bacon and cheese on it, and put in the microwave to heat it back up until the cheese melts. It is cooked twice, thus, twice baked potato.

So, I made twice baked potatoes and showed him...he still doesn't believe me!
