Thankful Thursday




- today is my day off
- amazing grace of God (and the song to remind me of it too)
- my husband getting the song "I've got joy joy joy joy down in my heart" stuck in my head (it made me smile more throughout the day)

Thankful Thursday

TOMORROW: MY DAY OFF!!!!!

Wordless Wednesday

the zoo closed for the day... animals were safe though
on my way to work on 480... lets just say that the picture above would be a warning as to why not to end up in something stupid like the picture below.... obviously your car won't make it through that... why bother trying??

right down the road from my work... lets just say that I didn't get there until 11am
below is where I should've been... but the Cuyahoga County Fair closed for the day as well
To those faithful whom I've neglected because of my busy schedule... I've chosen to post 6 pictures since it has been at least that many week since I've last posted. So sorry. I will poast more of my busy-ness later today. Anyway... these photos are from today... well actually I mean yesterday since it is early in the morning Wednesday now. Flooding because of the storms on 8/7/07.

Cleveland Indians Game

Andy & I
Dad & Mom
Our row (Dad is hiding behind Mom & Bryan)
Slider starts the wave
the infamous scoreboard
We went to the game on this past Saturday. Bryan and I decided to go together and get Dad tickets for Father's Day. Also we put a message on the board at the game for Mom & Dad's 40th wedding anniversary (which was on July 8th for those of you who want to know). Before the game we got an interview with the pitcher Paul Byrd. After the game we got a Michael Tait concert up close and personal. It was an awesome time! Also I had my first experience hopping tracks. Some random guy was laying on the ground with parametics around him when we got off of the train from downtown. It was pouring rain and rather chilly as we stood with the massive crowd of people coming back from downtown. We had to cross the bridge to get to the other side of the tracks which lead to the station and parking lot. Unfortunately the guy (who looked very dead) was blocking the way with his rescuers. Of course, Andy suggested to hop the tracks after standing for two minutes being miserable as the weather was as it was. Yeah right I thought. So I managed to quickly blurt out that it is raining and there are probably electrical lines down there so it wouldn't be a good idea to jump down there. Bryan, unfortunately had to mention that the lines would be above and it shouldn't be a problem. We let this random other guy jump first and so the rest of us followed. Me, reluctantly as I was freaked out to jump into tracks. We then asked one of the firefighters what happened to the guy laying down as we reached safety inside the station. He said the guy was so drunk that he slipped and fell and hitt his head. I suppose that's what the city of Cleveland gets for hosting a Kenny Chesney concert downtown sponsored by a rum company. What a night!

New Additions to the Family

Kyia


Jay, Katie, & Nick

The weekend of the July 6th my brother's family came to town to visit. We went to the beach and made a couple of trips to get ice cream at local places. Also we got a round of putt-putt in. It was neat to see my new nephew Jay and my new niece Kyia for the weekend. We had a good visit.

Memorial Day Weekend

Andy and I went down south to visit my sister & family last weekend. It was almost 24 hours ago now that we returned back home. It was a lovely time! I can't wait to return almost 3 weeks from now.

a bit relaxed

This evening I finally redeemed my gift certificates for an hour long massage. It was soooooo nice. This past weekend Andy and I went to Illinois. We got a chance to visit my brother & his family in their new place (or more like new to us- cause they've been there almost a year now). It was such a lovely time. It was such a blessing to also be able to witness when my niece and nephew were baptized as well. Here are some photos from our trip:
