More Aquarium

Really? You want MORE pictures of the aquarium?? Ok......whatever you want. I would be bored with them, but I guess you really like it. You're weird.

This is the far away look with the plants around it. It's hard to tell but Alex brought a lot of fish home last night. They are all guppies, which we had already, but these are females and we only had males. So far, we haven't killed one fish. It's a miracle.

Alex also added some plants in to the aquarium. The thought is, it might be good for the fish. We have no clue if this is true. But it's what we are going with.



Close up trying to catch some of the fish. Not a good job, but pretend you can see them.

Aquarium.....aquarium....

Do you get the title??? Get it?? You know, sung to the tune of that old song Aquarius??? Either I am too old, or you are too young.

Moving on.

Alex got an aquarium from a co-worker. He cleaned it out and put it together and got some guppies. This is the far away look. The candles on the sides are gone and we have put plants there.


This is the close up. Can you see the guppies? We have 3 of them, white, purple and red. They are our tester fish. If they survive we will get more, just not sure what kind.

Oh yeah, I'm a brunette now.

School Pictures

Amber and Allie brought their school pictures home yesterday. :) I'm not sure what happened to the pictures when I scanned them. But you get the idea.

Amber...


And Allie...

Are they cute or what??? :)

Pinata Time!

Alex and the girls are working on making a pinata.

We'll probably fill it with left over Halloween candy and let the girls go for it and smash it to bits. I'll post those pictures when it happens.

Halloween - Part 2

Bwahahahaha....HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

Please don't be scared. Yes, this is a witch, but it's a PURPLE witch which means she is a nice witch.


Note the earrings...Allie was very proud of them.

We've got spirits yes we do, we've got spirits how about you? Amber is a cheerleader for Pacific University. Go Boxers!!! (Thank you Aunt Dawn for your old uniform)

Muahahaha....I will get you my pretty! And your pom-poms too!!!

OK, we'll play nice now, or Mom says "NO CANDY!!!"

THE HAUL!!!!

I'm not sure they got enough candy. Hehehehe!!! Hope you all had a happy and safe Halloween!!!

Halloween - Part 1

We totally suck because we did not carve pumpkins this year. Why? I'm tired. That's why. Ok, Ok, you can yell all you want. I know it was a mistake, but there isn't anything to do about it now. Next year we'll make up for it. OK, maybe not make up for it, but we will carve pumpkins. Don't worry, my head is hung in shame....

Anyway, this is Dave one of the guys in my area at work. How funny is this??? He is a funny guy. :)


I'll post pictures of the girls next week.

The Grinch

Nike has an admin trade show. (you intel people know what I'm talking about) For those of you that don't know what it is, it's where a TON of vendors - travel, hotel, transportation, wineries, etc - get together and give out brouchures, free food, wine tasting, candy, toys, and assorted other goodies. You rake in the stuff!!! :) The theme this year was Dr. Seuss - it was crazy cute and the vendors really enjoyed it and dressed up GREAT!!!

This year not only did I get the items mentioned above, but I also got an umbrella, a plant, awesome fingernail polish, an orange colored condom (i know, but seriously they were handing them out, I had to get one), t-shirt, and some pictures.

This is a picture of me, Kari - another admin - and the Grinch!!

Are you jealous?? Oh, you totally should be. :) It was fun. It was crazy hot, but still fun. And I wished I hadn't eaten breakfast because the food was amazing and I didn't get to try hardly any of it because I was so full!! Next year I'll know not to eat. Hehehe...
