Christmas 2008

Spending time with good friends of 15+ years is always good times. We didn't take our "group" picture this Christmas like we always do but here are two...As you can see with the shoe picture I was trying to learn my new camera...

I also took two videos of Chris and Nicole playing Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games...

I think it was the javelin throw:

HOW DOES IT GO HIGH?

Anyway, it was good times.
Merry Christmas 2008!!!

The Return?

So i had to return a star tree topper I bought for my beautiful Christmas tree because it was too heavy. I find the receipt and bring it to the customer service area. "I would like to return this please" and hand her the receipt. She looked it over and said "you bought this at Wal-Mart?" I was thinking to myself...the receipt clearly has the Wal-Mart logo on top of the receipt but I said "yes". Now she is looking at me funny and doesn't know what to do...then we look at each other and it hits me...I'M IN K-MART!!! How embrassing. I said "Well I guess I'm in the wrong place then", then I grabbed the star and left, faster then I've ever moved before. LOL...good times

Sue's Birthday Dinner

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SUE!!!
First i have to tell you that the Birthday boy or girl usually picks the place where they want to celebrate their birthday. Until this time...

Well it all started when i was talking to Nicole. We wanted to go to a place that we don't usually go to. Nicole suggested Chilis. So we said
"Sue doesn't get to pick this year, we've decided for her...WE'RE GOING TO CHILIS?"
and she broke out in song so i could practice "the commercial" and here it is:



As always we had a blast and it's always a good time seeing my very good friends of 15+ years:

This last picture needs a caption:

"you know people stop me everywhere i go
and tell me how BEAUTIFUL my hair is"

This last video is the Chilis people doing their version of "happy birthday"

thanks to Nicole for telling our waitress---good job!!!



It was a great night and i look forward to spending time with you again!!!

Happy Birthday Miss Q

Love ya

Wii Night...08.07.08

So my friends and I decided to have a Wii Party at my house to celebrate the Olympics. A pre Olympics the night before the opening ceremonies (08.08.08)

It was Sue, Gina Marie, Nicole and her two boys Anthony and Andrew. Everyone brought something to eat and then we got into our competition. First we played bowling (I'm now at pro level after this night) and then we played Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games. This game sure gives you a work out with arms flaying all over. Here are some examples:

Sorry about the last video, I took it from my camera phone the wrong way so it's sideways and I don't know how to fix that. Anyway, it was a great night and it's always great to spend time with such close friends. I've known these girls for 15 to 20 years now so it's nice to spend time together when we can.

LET'S DO IT AGAIN!!!
