5K and Girls' Night!

Saturday mornings should not start before 9am. It should be a law. But alas, our work has sponsored an exercise program and paid for employees and spouses to enter the Rex E. Lee 5k/10k Run, so in an effort to participate and support the cause, we signed up for the 5k.

Our Goal: To Finish. 

With co-workers right before the race (Michael is behind me on the far right).

iMania!

For work, I was given an iPhone and it has been such a blessing. It provides an app with such an easy to follow format that those of us who are directionally inept, can get where we're going by simply following a little blinking dot. I can text my boss updates or reminders from anywhere and it remembers previous texts so that carrying on a conversation is a piece of cake. My Google calendar syncs with my phone so that I will never forget a meeting or event again. Typing and texting are such a breeze that I'm positive I'll never say "gone" instead of "home" again! The Pandora app gives me awesome music anytime I want and I couldn't be happier with all the extra free apps like weather, camera, calculator, amazon, youtube, safari, smurf's village, angry birds (lite), and a few paid ones like Michael's Financial Calculator and Fruit Ninja. So you'd think that we'd be set as far as apple products went, right?!

Married Life Rocks!

So, we have decided to jump on the bandwagon and create a blog. I guess it's the "cool" thing to do when you get married. Hopefully we can keep you updated and share lots of fun tidbits that we've discovered. I'm not going to try and cover the past, because that always overwhelms me. So if there's ever a significant gap between posts, call us and we'll fill you in. I will try to cover the last 6 months or so though, since we've been meaning to post honeymoon pics and affirm how amazing married life is. We are huge fans of being married and highly recommend it.


Blogging Class

It's time to learn! I dragged Michael along with me to the library tonight, mainly so that we could spend some time together today, because I wanted to go to the free Blogging class being offered. Tonight is Part 1 and they're going over the very basics of getting a blog. It's cute how many senior citizens want to get in on the new age technology and hip blogging trends. I'm just hoping to get a better handle on uploading pictures correctly and changing the template, etc. Oh, and more ideas about what exactly I plan to blog about.
