Happy St. Patty's Day...

So last weekend Nick and I went to the cities because I was going with Stacy to the bridal show. I took a half day on Friday so we could leave early and see the fam since we had other plans for Sat. and Sun. Adelyn now is crawling and loves to walk by holding your fingers. She even walks by herself when she's holding onto her buggy. I can't believe how big she's getting, Shan even bought her first birthday stuff (it was on super sale at the store!).

Saturday we woke up bright and ealry and went to John's (Nick's old roomate) house and met up with some people and went downtown St. Paul to celebrate St. Patty's Day. We started at 10:00 got down there around 11:00 (we took the light rail to the airport and took a bus from there) and went to the bars. We missed the parade (never went outside) but the bagpipes came through the beer tents and played so that was cool. After we had lunch there it got really packed and it'd take 15 min. to go from the restaurant to the beer tent, we finally left. I honestly didn't think I was going to make it all night for it was only 4:00pm. We rounded up the troops, hit the hot dog stands and walked to the next bar. We met up with Joey Jones (another Hib-town friend that was there for the Gopher's game). It was good catching up with him...and then we moved on at about 6:30. We rode the bus to another bar (my favorite one) where they had a guy from Ireland and some band members play live Irish music. It reminded me of Titanic when they were all in the basement dancing (except everyone dancing was not that good!). By this time I was hungry again so we walked across to McDonalds (mmm grease!). 11:00pm the guys were finally ready to leave and I jumped for joy!! I felt old, my knees were going to fall off from standing all day. Stacy came and picked us up and brought us back to John's house where we at pizza (I think I gained a few pounds!) and fell asleep! Thanks to Stacy for picking us up, I did not want to ride the bus again!!! Love you.

Bright and early Sunday we ate b-fast at the Bradley's and hung out (well played with Adelyn)! Stacy picked me up and we went to the bridal show....we spent a couple hours there, eating the most delicious desserts! We got some good ideas for her and it was fun just hanging out just the 2 of us since we never get to do that anymore! Twas a fun weekend, thanks to all!

My "Intelligence"

Mine is very funny, not all that true!

Your Dominant Intelligence is Bodily-Kinesthetic Intelligence


You are naturally athletic and coordinated, good at making your mind and body work together.
Sports are fun and easy for you, especially those requiring good hand - eye coordination.
There's also a good chance you're a great dancer, or good at expressing yourself through body language.
You learn best by doing, and you feel like you've always got to be moving (even if it's just your hands).

You would make a good athlete, physical education teaches, dancer, actor, firefighter, or artisan.

I'm Back....

Sorry for everyone that thought we fell of the Earth! You're all probably wondering why I've been MIA, well I blame it on Grey's Anatomy. I've been trying to find the right time to finally jump on the bandwagon and Holly (from work) gave me the 1st season and it all went down(up for me)from there! I was almost through season 1 when I bribed Nick to watch it with me by giving him backrubs. Well as most of you know he got sucked into it as well. We started watching season 2 then, we watched it when we got home from work until about 2:00 am everyday (with breaks to pee and eat of course!). We finished up season 2 and went to watch season 3 on abc.com only to find out they only offered the last 4 episodes, we were very sad. We sat and brainstormed thinking we were doomed...until it hit me, itunes! You can buy all the episodes on their and then burn them later! We celebrated and got right to work downloading (we definitely had/have issues, but we're ok with that). So all last week we watched season 3 and we are finally caught up!! We were so excited we were caught up with the rest of the world for Thrs. nights and then they go and show a repeat, boo. So now you know why we've been MIA!

Today is beautiful, Nick is fishing (probably one of his last times for the season) and I'm spring cleaning with the windows open and the music cranked!!

Our big news while we've been MIA is that we finally got grown-up furniture! It was time, our only piece of furniture (the garbage chair) was getting holes and well it was embarrassing having people over. *garbage chair: picked from a Bethel College dumpster by Shan and Brandi when they were in college and passed down to us when they graduated, soon it'll be passed onto Sis, haha. So that got moved to the bedroom and we got new stuff, mom helped pick it out! Perfect timing for our Grey's marathon. It's wonderful being able to sit together on the couch! So here are some pics..
