Been playing around....

with this.

Downloading apps.

Some for Nick.

And some for me.

Hipstamatic

Run Keeper

And thats what you do when you're sick. Lots of rest and iPhone apps.

I love my Hipstamatic though. What a great concept!

Just a few pictures from the first week.

(Buying more film and lenses for the Hipstamatic)

(Taking pictures to scrap)

I have SO much more to share.

Happy Anniversary

8 years. 8 LONG years. (Inside joke.)

12 years if you count the dating. 12 LONG years.

So not to overshadow my last post, because I'm still giddy over it but here are some pictures from the wedding. The sad thing is, I have nothing digital so it was all scanned. Yuck. I'm really not that color. The originals are pretty nice though!

So, on April 27th, 2002 we did the deed.

8 years ago. Really? It seems like only yesterday that I was paranoid over getting the reception hall on the same day we could book the church. And will the food be okay? What about colors? I loved the royal blue/silver combo with some stars maybe? Good luck finding ANYTHING at the time. Of course, wherever I go to day, I see that color combo with a big shooting star or group of stars. 8 years later.....

We were married at Rancho Capistrano.

My parents...

And because its my mothers favorite picture.....

In those 8 years, we've bought a house

Had a baby

Traveled the world

Changed jobs

Started my business

Experienced life together.

I know life throws challenges at us and I know we'll weather the storm. Because who else would put up with me for 8 (12) years?

I've got a new toy....

To keep me busy this summer.

The Crackberry broke this week. Well, its been dying a slow death. But it lasted 21 months which is apparently longer than Crackberry's should last. The roller ball usually dies within 6 months and needs to be replaced. Or the battery dies. Or the screen dies.

I've heard any number of common Crackberry deaths but mine, she lasted. For almost 2 years.

So when the pins on the charger bent, I took her in to get fixed. With it being so close to the contract renewal, they said I could buy a new one for just $99. It was going to be more than that to fix her.

So.... I made the tough decision to trade her in. Upgrade to the newest model.

And then the salesman (clever kid) slyly points out the iPhone. I can't afford that, I say to myself. See, I can't even look at something like this. I need to have it. I want it. I dream about it. I upgraded to a Mac desktop last year and its been the most amazing transition. I love everything Apple and I want it. I'm like that creepy thing in Lord of the Rings saying 'my pressshhhhussss'.

And thats when he dropped the bomb on me. I could get an iPhone for $99. I almost punched him in the face for messing with me. You don't mess with me when it comes to shiny electronics. He had some 'splainin' to do.

See, the new Crackberry was $199 with a $100 mail in rebate. The iPhone was $399 with an INSTANT rebate of $300. Really? No, really? Thats it? And all I have to do is sign up for another 2 years of service? Aw shucks.

So, baby.....

You had me at hello.

Time on my hands....

Now that the Kings are out of it, I have more time on my hands.

Disappointed in this guy:

He cost this guy his shot at the Norris Trophy:

Hoping my 'second' team can pull it out in Game 7 on Tuesday.

Working on some upgrades to the site and blog. Just cleaning a few things up and making it look prettier.

Finishing up the National Scrapbook Day plans I have for this weekend. (Which reminds me, I should start packing....)

Today was Day 1 of Clean Eating and Couch to 5k.

Some cool pictures from last nights game.....

Coming out of the Castle gate for the start of the game.

The Canucks scored first and early but the Kings came back hard and strong.

Luongo got pulled early.

And after controversial goals and penalties, the Kings came out on top.

If you can't handle trash talkin' don't look at this video.

For those of you who can't read lips, Doughty is saying:

"keep yappin buddy, keep yappin....I got all day, come down my come down here and i will ****in hipcheck the **** outta you"

Busy....

Cheering my boys on to victory!

Watching this kid to amazing things with a puck ....

And watching Vancouver fans jaws drop when he does them.

Trying to ignore men in tight green body suits and praying that they don't come down to Los Angeles.

Excited for the game on Wednesday - because I have tickets. The first playoff game in Los Angeles in 8 years. Been too long. Oh and I heard there are rally towels involved. You know I'm getting one!

So forgive the lack of creativity and layout posting. I'm busy trying to cheer loud enough for my team.

Wordle

I totally forgot about this. I tried a while back when I first started my blog and it was boring.

Now I have some substance to my Wordle.
