My first Blog...

Well, this is my family! Love of my life Dan and our two "boys", Milo and Otis. I thought that since this was my first blog, I would tell you a little about our lives in Hicksville, NE...
I guess saying Hicksville isn't really ALL that true. We really live in a village surrounded by rolling hills of farmland and it's actually quite peaceful. We have a little Cape-cod style house with a large backyard and peonie bushes up front. We've lived in our house for about 2 years and have remodeled it from top to bottom. (we're working on finishing the basement right now!) We tore out the ceilings, floors, walls, EVERYTHING and started all over again. It took us a little over 6 months to finish the upstairs and it consisted of grueling hours and endless evenings. The work would have never gotten done without the help of our parents and friends. We are now blessed with a fabulous house and continue working on it all the time. (I'll upload photos from the renovation later...)
Dan is a computer genious who's true forte' is helping people work through problems on their PC's and fixing all the problems I create on our own computer. :) He loves his job and enjoys tinkering around the house and remodeling furniture. He also enjoys playing with the boys and running with Milo on the treadmill. Trust me, it's quite the sight!
I enjoy burning my candle at both ends. Just kidding, but it's really what I seem to do best. Not only do I go to school full time, I work at an animal clinic three days a week, train three Holsteiner horses for a man, have my OWN two horses to ride during the week, go to bible study, scrapbook, make jewelry, paint, and do photography. (this is really just the tip of the iceburg.) My life seems to go at a hundred miles a minute but I don't know what I'd do if it ever slowed down...maybe scrapbook more?? OK, I think that's about all for now... Auf Wiedersehen!

10 Strange/Random/Weird things about me...

OK, I know that I'm weird, but I think it DEFINITELY runs in the family! :) She's just as goofy as me! Even my best friends are strange! Sorry Sarah! Couldn't resist! :) OK, so Sarah Mast tagged me in one of her blogs and now I have to list 10 random or strange things about me. Well if you know me well enough, you know that I'm just WEIRD/RANDOM period. Oh well, I'll do it anyways! :) This is for you Sarah! 1. I don't like watermelon or pickles. Which I know are American classics and it's weird, but I can't STAND the texture of them! Therefore, no go. 2. I HATE clowns. They terrify me. 3. I'm scared to death of chickens and think they only should be allowed to live to be able to eat them later. ( I was attacked multiple times as a kid by chickens, ask my sister!) 4. I LOVE to go hunting and shoot blue rock. I can't shoot anything besides birds though cause there's no way I could shoot Bambi. 5. I also love smoking cigars. Swisher sweets ar

Last Beautiful days of Summer break...

Image
Well! I've really been enjoying my vaca from school (hence the no blog postings lately..Sorry!) and i'm really bummed to have to go back on Monday. I've been enjoying my horse-time every day and NOT having to study! Oh well, it'll all be over in about 8 months... yeay ! :-) Here's a few pictures of our " shinanigans " over the last few weeks... That's right...I'M REALLY HOLDING MY OWN FISH!!! but Damon was so kind as to take it off the hook for me! ;-) And please notice that Dan's fish is MUCH smaller than mine! (Actually, Damon and Greg told me how to hold my fish to make it look bigger in the picture...it's really about the same size as Dan's it just looks much bigger :-) Ha! Anyway, hope everyone is having a great summer thus far, Adio's for now!
