Back

I've been pretty remiss in updating the blog the past...oh...over a week! 

That's because my parents were here...and I had a couple meetings in the evenings...

The blog just didn't fit in.

But I've been collecting post ideas, so I have an arsenal of things to share.  Yippee!

Away we go!

An anniversary

It's crazy to think Todd and I had our first date one year ago today!

How did the magic all begin?

My volleyball team played his, and separately our teams ended up at the same bar to have a beer. 

That sounds so...something-you-wouldn't-tell-your-kids-when-they-ask-how-you-and-dad-met, but it was innocent and fun - and we had already noticed each other across the court. 

He sat next to me and we hit it off, chatting and joking the night away.  He asked for my number, saying he would call the next day, and lo and behold - he did! 

I was impressed...what guy actually calls the next day?

Our first date?

Dinner at Burger King sushi, karaoke with my friends at Old Chicago, and a Bloody Mary at The Four Winds.  With much foresight my friend Brandon told me that night I was going to have to marry this guy because he actually sings! 

A year later we have a house, and a dog, and hopes of many more years together.

I really don't like volleyball, but am I sure glad I signed up (to be our team cheerleader) last year!

Wyoming wear

This just made my day!

My ol' friend Mike and his son sporting some Wyoming wear I sent them.  They live on the East Coast and have never visited the Cowboy State.  

They love their Wyoming gear though, just like all us Wyoming folks do here.


Oh, man...the bucking horse and rider!!
