Check it out!

Hi everyone. I just watched Barack Obama's acceptance speech, and I just want to urge everyone who didn't get a chance to watch it to check it out on his website or youtube or wherever you can find it online. I've been watching the DNC all week and I'll say this because I am not running for office and don't fear backlash from you guys, but this week was the first time I've felt patriotic in my adult life. We've seen how bad leadership in this country can quickly destroy everything ] that America was built to represent and I think it's important for all us to know that it really is up to us to not let that continue to happen or we may not be able to fix it. Not to be dramatic, it's just what I've been thinking about this week while watching the DNC. Now I have to decompress, maybe I will eat some ice cream and watch the hills or something :) In other news I'm looking forward to testie toss and ribs this Sunday! Woohoo!

Dakota passed!

Dakota and Fritz went for their evaluations at the Doggie Day Care place we want to leave them at when we are in Maine. Somehow they passed the test and will be spending 6 nights at Doggie Camp! They were so well behaved!

Who's who

Fun picture taking, is it Mark's photo or mine? And seriously, look at the hot-as-can-be bride!

Dave's Visit to Chicago

A good time was had by all! Looking forward to the next time we can all get together!

Jeff Koons at the MCA

Final plan: Saturday late morning around 10-11am... Meet at Brent's? I hope that works for everyone.

Up North: Mmmm... Doh-nuts

Brent and I were in the Land of Cheese Curds this weekend and we had a great time. I copied the link to my Picasa album below. Hopefully it works... I just started using it.

Fire game this Saturday? Jeff Koons exhibit at the MCA Saturday or Sunday? I think it'll be a good one.

US WNT Played Like Crap

I really don't think we could've played any worse. The whole time I was thinking, "I got up at 6:30am to watch THIS?" The stupid long balls to no one... the crappy passes to the other team... the miscommunication (more like lack of communication) between Hope Solo and her defenders... the wild shots from way outside the 18... WE SUCKED!

Just needed to vent, thanks. I was embarrassed for the women's game in general, as stupid pig-headed chauvinist male footballers are going to watch the highlights and say the same thing they've been saying for decades..... "See?! I told you... women can't play football."

AARGH!!!

i am doula!

Yeah! I am officially a doula! Please refer me to your pregnant bosses and neighbors!
