I DO NOT...

...HAVE ALLERGIES!!!!
Though, I have all the symptoms
and am taking allergy medicine
and Dr. Dustin is convinced that I do.
I will not accept that fate!
Never had them, never will!
No way! Uh-uh!! Absolutely Not! :)

Ok, Ok. I will admit the medicine
is finally starting to work.
The medicine that says it relieves
allergy symptoms
is, actually relieving my...
allergy....like...symptoms.

Fine! I have allergies!!! Yuck!!! :)

How did Springfieldians keep warm during the cold cold days?

















This past January, Springfield was hit by a huge ice storm. It destroyed trees and plant life and threw out power to almost the entire city for days. It was one of the craziest things I haver been through. I was out of power for two weeks. Luckily I was able to stay with Dustin's family (since they were only out of power a couple of days). I felt very grateful to have that luxury at a time like that and actually kind of enjoyed those two weeks. The ice was beautiful and since I don't own a home yet, I had nothing to worry about as far as property damage. I realized during those two weeks how much we rely on and take advantage of electricity.










The front page of our paper today had this news story. I had heard about this before, but still found it quite funny!

It's Racing Time!!

A couple of weekends ago, Dustin and I went to a Nascar Busch Series race. I was given free tickets from a co-worker and neither of us had ever been. So we packed ourselves up and took the 3 hour drive to the Kansas Speedway in Kansas City, Kansas. What an adventure!









We got there around 11:00 am. The main race started at 2:00 so we decided to use the time before to check out the merchandise and roam around the track. All the big-name racers had their trucks of clothes and stuff to sell. Being the huge M&M fan that I am, I had to get a picture with David Gilliland's truck( he drives the M&M car).

After shopping, we found our seats and made it in time to see the big name guys come out on the track and practice for their big race the next day. That was cool! We saw Dale Earnhardt, Jeff Gordon, David Gilliland, ...and a ton more. :)










Then the main race began! After donning our awesome fashionable earplugs, we were ready to enjoy the action! That race was, without a doubt, the loudest event I have ever attended! Other than the roar of the engines, you couldn't hear a single thing. Dustin and I found out that we do not communicate well without words. It was actually quite funny!!










And the winner was.....#5 Kyle Busch!! Not our first pick, but still exciting to see!

Meet Me In St. Louis!

A couple of weekends ago, we went with some good friends to St. Louis for the weekend. We had some great times! We started the weekend by watching a hot air balloon race. Over 50 balloons of all shapes and sizes took off from Forest Park in the city. Unfortunately, after we had taken 20 or 30 pictures, my camera decided to reformat the SD card and all of my pictures have been lost. Hopefully we can get some copies of pictures taken by our friends and we will post them later for your enjoyment. Later that day we went to the City Museum, which was pretty much just a huge 3-story jungle gym for adults!! It was awesome! Click on the link above to see a photo tour from the museum website.

Here's a description from the website, "Housed in the 600,000 square-foot former International Shoe Company, the museum is an eclectic mixture of children's playground, funhouse, surrealistic pavilion, and architectural marvel made out of unique, found objects...CITY MUSEUM boasts features such as old chimneys, salvaged bridges, construction cranes, miles of tile, and even two abandoned planes! "























Here are just a few pics of our fun!
