Andrew and Holly's Monogram


Here is Andrew and Holly's Monogram. We have been busy with work and Fantasy Draft. HA HA HA. I am currently trying to learn how to create web pages with XHTML. Computer talk make head hurt. It is going pretty good so far. We are heading out of state this weekend to Wisconsin to see Brian and Carol Orth for the 3 day weekend. And if anyone is interested in going to the ISU vs. UNI game in Sept. let me know cause Crystal and I plan on going.

Quick Ride

Just got back from a quick bike ride around town. Going to relax for the rest of the night. Work has been busy which made this week go by real fast. I probably should get some gas for the mower tomorrow, the lawn is looking pretty hairy. Bowling starts next Monday and Lukas and I will be out at the lanes tomorrow night to get the rust out.

Not Much

Can't say there has been a whole happening lately. I got Crystal's palm pilot to sync up with the mac and tonite I will be working on Andrew and Holly's monogram. I will get 2 miles in tonite still and relax the rest of the night doing some designing. Hope everyone else's day is more exciting than mine.

Driving and Driving and more Driving

This past weekend was a blast but was a lot of driving. Saturday we started with helping Wade move to Ames. Then drove to the new Iowa Speedway in Newton to watch Dustin ride along Nascar experience in the #8 car. How cool was that?! It was a blast because the whole family was there to watch Dustin go 130mph. We gave Mom and Dad their early 15 year wedding anniversary which were 2 Harley Crystal Glasses and booze. Afterwards we went to the Anderson's Birthday Party and then spent the night at Andrew's place. Sunday we slept in and then went to Ames to see where Wade will be living at ISU and then went back to Des Moines to see Kara. Crystal drove home and I slept.

Traveling Weekend

Tonite we went to Crystal's work picnic. It was lots of fun and the food was good. This weekend we are heading to Des Moines. We will help Wade move to Ames, then go to Newton to see Dustin ride along in NASCAR, and then go to Raelyn's 1 year birthday party at Bart and Tonya's. All on Saturday. Then Sunday we will see Kara and then go home. Oh did I mention washing the truck really early Saturday morning before the road trip.

Nite Rider

Riding our bikes at nite with only one bike with a light sucks. Crystal and I went on the 400th Wabash Ride today and decided to ride at night for the first time on the trails. I was following Crystal who had the light on her bike and when she got too far ahead I was completely blinded by the darkness of the woods. It was still a lot of fun and we are going to invest in some bike lights now. So 21 miles on the bike tonite and I am ready for bed.

Football Camp

Days like these when it is hot and muggy make me glad I am not in high school football camp. I didn't get a chance to go outside and run but I was able to get on the Tony Little Gazelle and get 2 miles in. Hopefully tomorrow will be better because Crystal and I are planning on riding our bikes on the Wabash Trail for their 400th ride. So no rain or heat tomorrow evening would be nice.

Weekends are For Rest?

I thought that the weekends are for relaxing. I thought WRONG. We were so busy that I sure would have liked Monday off. Not much else exciting happening after the weekend. Work is going well and busy as usual and Crystal is all signed up and ready to take her nurses test October 12th (I think it is the 12th).
I was able to get another mile in over the weekend and started running 2 miles yesterday and today. Which makes it 8 miles running and 20 miles biking. Hope you are keeping up Dustin.

Long Bike Ride for me

I rode 20 miles today which I haven't done in a long time. My legs are burning right now. But it was fun riding the trail. Thank goodness it's Friday tomorrow and hopefully the weekend will go by super slow. Crystal and I are going out tomorrow night for her birthday because we will be busy this Sunday going to a wedding. And Saturday night Crystal will be at bachelorette party.

Then there were 2

Well I guess Andrew is passing the torch to Dustin. The oldest vs. the youngest. I have already put in my 2 days of running and planning on biking the Wabash Trail (20 miles) tomorrow cause the weather is so much better now that the humidity is gone. I am feeling the burn and I like it so watch out. Don't let an old man beat you Dustin.
For anyone who wants to join a fantasy football league for free this year let me know and I will get you in.
3 miles in 2 days.

Sweat Burns in Your Eyes

Well I finished my mile and a half today. I was dripping when I got home. Thank goodness for ceiling fans and air conditioning. Hooray Technology. Everyone is at work tonite so nothing for me to do but relax and watch t.v. and stretch out my legs cause I know they will hurt tomorrow.
