I Heart USA

I Heart USA for many reasons, one, my new mode of transportation. Check out these babies! They bring a smile to my face every time they even cross my mind. I've had this obsession with 'blades probably since elementary school. They are so hard core, right? Anyway, my friend graciously bought me these lovelies at a yard sale and I've been in heaven since. I've decided to become a "Sonic Housewife" (at least until school starts) because I can roll down my tile close to every room in my house! Dinner will be so much more exciting now! (Side note: I wear this shirt ALL of the time...even though 4th of July is a gonner. I guess it just adds to the rollerblade ensamble)

I also heart USA, even if I don't have that shirt on in this picture, because yellow corvettes exist. Obsession #2:I love this! Now I just need to actually drive one, because let's get serious, I'm not going to own one until I'm.....fifty something years old...and by then the passion may have faded....or not.......

This is just an added bonus picture to the post: CHECK IT! This is the sky, right after church in front of my house. Welcome to Kansas, people! Craziness.

Random Random Thoughts

I'm hoping my new blog design will give me at least a little motivation to actually do something with the resources I brought home from school. I have had stuff laying around since the beginning of the summer and.... yeah....haven't touched a thing. Can a blog design even be a form of motivation? Sounds sort of weak sauce....maybe I should bribe myself with ice cream on top of that.

HOWEVER, I have had an amazing summer vacation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (posts to come)

Typical....

Typical Day:
6:30 a.m. Mark -ready to leave for work, smile on his face, trying to communicate with his wife.
6:30 a.m. Lacey-asleep, having the mind battle between "just 5 more minutes" and "get up and be a good wife, make Mark breakfast and pack his lunch" not realizing that it's already time for him to leave.

I'm glad Mark decided to document our typical day, even though it does show me being a lazy wife. The truth hurts sometimes.

Sweet Home...

Alabama!!!!!!!!!!!
This was such a fun trip! The hubby had a training so I decided to go along with him and visit our friends. We did a lot of fun things and met up with quite a few different people.....the only problem is that most of these memories are only recorded in our minds. I was pretty lame and didn't really take any pictures! It's annoying when I get home from a trip, just to realize that I took 2 pictures and Mark took 3, and I'm in every single one of them, many without anyone else in the picture. Lame. What was I thinking?

At least I was able to get a picture with the most handsome little man in Alabama! We were such good pals by the end of our stay. I miss you Mr. M!

Jenga was a top thriller while we were there. If you look closely, you can see evidence of my friend Heidi to the right of me....glad we got a picture of you! :)

We appreciate and loved our visits and stays with all y'all southerners! THANKS!
