MLK Day

John, Peaches and I had the day off so we decided to do something fun. We went to Frankie's Fun Park and had a blast. John and Peaches rode the go carts in the freezing cold and each time they rode past me, Peaches had the biggest smile on her face. They both loved it. We then headed to the mall for lunch and called it a day. Now I am left to blog while the "kids" play Mario Kart on the Wii.

Not that Exciting

This is my first post ever on this blog........as you can see, it's not very exciting. I just don't think I can dedicate myself to this blog. It is too much pressure. I won't be able to keep up with the demands of friends and family to post everyday. Listen Folks, my life is just not that exciting to be able to post every day. I can't keep any promises that there will be a post every month. But, I will try or should I say, we will try. Laura

Busy, busy!

Just signed up for LiveJournal. I'll be posting there for all one of the persons who read my blog. Here's the link: http://el-rakeman.livejournal.com/?s2id=24623901

We'll see how that goes...maybe I'll be ambitious and post at both.

Finally online!

Whoohooo! We finally got high speed internet at the house! No more searching for wireless hotspots to update the blog. As you can probably tell, I don't find them very much. Look for multiple postings soon!
