Pictures from the MS Walk

This is my desk lst week with all my To-Do piles.

This is early registration/bib pick up on Thursday night.

Today is the day. Diana is giving the volunteers some last minute instructions.

Directing parking while "The Great One" looks on.

Setting up the Coca-Cola trailer.

Shuttling the walkers to the starting line. What a BEAUTIFUL day for a Walk.

These are our Money Runners from Wells Fargo

These girls did a GREAT job as the "Big, Wild Animals"

Registration table at the Millenium Hotel

Hanging banners at the starting line

Outside the hotel

Subway Sandwich guy.

Waiting for the start

And They're off!!!

Coming around the bend...

Our first runner is on his way in.

Cheerleaders bring them in

The guy in the front has already finished twice, but he would go back and meet his teammates and run them in.

Pretty good time for running with a stroller.

The line for the hotdogs

Selling the old walk tee shirts so we can buy tables

This is Gene, Diana's husband, at the grill

This one is for me. You cant put me in a location like this, with a camera in my hand and thing I wont get some scenery shots!

These are my favorite team sirts. Their team name was "Wilder Women" and this is the back (obviously)

And yes, I was there too.

The Walk

The walk went so well today. The weather couldnt have been better. Around 50 degrees and sunny. My face got a bit sunburnt. Anyway I dont have the exact numbers of participants or money, but I think it went very well. I will post pictures later. I am pretty worn out now. It was a really long day, but I had a lot of fun. If we are around next year I will totally do it again. oh, I do have one picture for you today though. I call it "Thank God, its over. And I survived!" LOL.

Baby Fever.

Someone in our house has caught a major case of baby fever (and its not me) but it seems to be catching. But we agreed that we woulkd wait till we came back home, but Matthew really wants to be a daddy. He says he watchs the people walk in front of the UPS store and he sees the guys holding the little hands while they try to walk... And he wants that. Awwww. Which just makes me so happy and so sad that I said he would have to wait. I dont want to wait, but I do cuz I want to be close to mom and dad and Matt's family too. And we are planning on going to Disney World in November with mom and dad. And I dont want to risk not being able to go so we would have to wait till after then. So we are kinda bummed. See what Baby Fever run rampant will do within a household?

Update....

The doctor called. Marcus has a fracture.

Boys will be boys

After we watched the playoff game at Marcus and Amelia's house last night the four of us went over to Load Barn so the boys could play hockey.

And it was all fun and games. And for some reason Matt starts beating up an orange cone. I dont know why.

All of a sudden Marcus goes RACING over and jumps over that rope. Needless to say he couldnt land. These boys arent professional bladers! Next thing we know he's on his back. Not gettin up. What an idiot.

Matthew talked him into going to the hospital today. There wasnt an Xray tech to look at the xrays, but there wasnt an obvious break. What an idiot, prolly would have been better off if he did break it.

Running out of time

The walk is a week from Saturday! Already! I am kinda freakin out. This week is gonna suck!

Easter

This is the Easter basket my Alaska mom got me. I would post a picture of the Easter box mom sent me, but we ate all the candy before I had a chance to do it!

Our award winning icicle. Okay, so the award and the contest were in my head, but we still won

Watchin hockey

Diana got me this minature rose plant as a thank you for my hard work

Sunrise

Valentine's

I couldnt remember if I posted this. Diana gave me this for Valentine's.

Grizzly's new collar

Before

Break up!

So do you remember the waist high snow and the snow hat on our grill? This is all thats left!

After

And then this is AFTER a week of almost 50 degrees

My baby is so little...

Look how adorable she is. She was so small.

Bitches

And one of the downsides of MySpace. I have so far loved it because I have been able to keep in touch with people I wouldnt have otherwise. Which is now both a good thing, and a bad thing. Here's why:

Sunday we went to Outback for supper with Marcuz and Amelia and when we were waiting for our check one of the "girls" (I say girls instead of Bitch) from L.A. Style came in with her husband. I literally wanted to vomit. Not because of her, but because of the situation. I told this to Carrie (posted it in her comments on MySpace) (Carrie worked at the spa and quit after what they did to me) Anyway this girl saw the comment. Well, Carrie knows how I meant it, the situation not the girl part. Well thats not what the girl saw. So she messages me (which I dont know how cuz my profile is private so only my accepted friends can see my comments) and says that she "thinks its funny that stupid fat bitches stick together". And the part that makes me giggle a little about all this, is how absurd she has just become cuz she always goes on about the "haters" and how they are jusat jealous the success of the LA Style "brand" and blah, blah, blah. Which I find to be humorous cuz I NEVER said anything against HER, just about the situation that I am drowning in, but she comes back at me all defensive and insulting. Who's the hater now? This whole thing is just DRIPPING with irony (maybe not the right word, contradiction maybe works better than irony)! I think that it takes one to know one and she is in NO place to call anyone fat since she is quite over weight. No place to call anyone a bitch cuz she epitomizesthe word. And LEAST OF ALL should she be calling anyone stupid she she STILL WORKS FOR LORI!!! And calls Lori her hero and thanks her for all the good things that are happening in her life.

OMG, for being that stupid, you deserve whatever she does to you!

I am so sick of being sick. And I dont even really FEEL that bad but I do. Its wierd. I dont really have a voice, which I proceeded to ruin evenmore at the play off game last night, and will do again tonight... I just forget that I cant talk cuz my throat doesnt hur. It is just wierd. I cant wait till its over. It better be over soon, the Walk is a week from Saturday. There is a lot of stuff I need to do and I need to have my voice to do it!!! A week and a half... I cant believe its almost here. Soon I will have to go back to working at the commisary every day... Boo. At least its warming up so Its not so miserable. Boo again.

Wow, I was just atchin the news and some lady drove her car off a cliff at Earthquake Park and walked out into the Inlet. Those mudflats are suicide! I guess maybe that was her intent. I'm sure she died. If you get stuck in those flats and the tide comes in... you're dead. They cant get you out of that. Yeah, she died. Man, she had two kids. Thats really sad. Really sad.

Man, I need to watch the news more often. Anchorage is getting a new mall with.... TARGET!!! By Fall! OOOh, KOHL'S and OLIVE GARDEN!!!!!!! YES!!! I am SO happy!
