Alice's life in pictures...

Hi friends. Have you joined the revolution yet? If not, head over to The Postcard Experiment

I am horrible slacker lately. So instead of boring you with words, here are some pics:


Mom and I like to walk down our street and checkout the amazing gardens of our neighbors'!





Softball is a big part of this girl's life these days!


I love Jimmy Johns and their signs. It was nice they were open late last Thursday after my game. By the way: women's team undefeated; coed team winless. Weird.





Cool clouds on drive to Rhinelander from Wausau Thursday after ball.


I am sometimes a genealogy nerd! And I am quite proud of it!


Dinner with the family is always good!


My hair+humidity, not so much! And I really didn't want to post that pic but seriously that hair is amazing, isn't it? Horrible pic of me but great pic of the humid hair!

Hope all's well. I have hired a grammar sheriff, so watch out blog!

P.S. Alice is committing herself to being better at commening back on her own blog's comments. I am not guilting you into commenting but I really do feel it is a great way to stay in touch with all my peeps. (And I really don't know why I am using "peeps" these days. Weird!) Now off to run!

I am very tired lately. I should be out on my bike right now but I am sitting here doing this. I caught two fish this week. Here they are in glory:






And here I am in fishing glory:





I have done a whole lot of exciting things: Like moving my pictures from my computer to my flash drive. Doesn't it sounds exciting?

I did finish Kristin Chenoweth's book, A Little Bit Wicked: Life, Love, and Faith in Stages, today. It is hilariously creatively written. She has been added to my "I Want to Meet Them" list!  You would like the book. And why does blogger not have an underlining option? I do know books are underlined, just so you all know!

I have been on a Cheoweth kick and watched a few episodes of her series "Kristin" on YouTube. It is a very cute show. Too bad it didn't last more than a season. Kinda like it was too bad "Pushing Daisies" only lasted two. What do these networks know about good TV anyway?

Have a cheerful day. I am off to Walgreens and then to Wausau for ball. Let's hope I don't drive down and get a rain out!

Comments

I know some of you read this blog. I know this because I am an internet stalker. What has happened to all the commenting that used to go on here? Morgan...thank you for your undying commenting. The rest of you: shame! Just kidding, but it would be nice to hear from you guys on occasion and what you are thinking. Just sayin'!

Celebrate Good Times!!!

My whole family was in town for my parents 45th Wedding Anniversary. I am quite proud of their great accomplishment. We even had a dinner just like they had for their wedding: baked chicken, dressing, and potatoes and gravy. My sister also brought an amazing carrot cake. There was good food to eat all around. I like food. Here are some pictures from the festivities. One of my mom's friends took family pictures for us. I will post them some other time. I am too lazy to go get the cd and walk to the computer!







My brother, Erich, and I. I hadn't seen him in two years and was so glad to spend time with him and his wife, Carmen.






I did a 2.7 mile run in honor of my parents. Okay, it was because I knew there would be too much food! The doctor was right by the way. Two would have been better. 2.7 hurt.






One of many Rhinelander Hodags that were scattered downtown for a car show/art show. Read about the Hodag HERE






Mom, Carmen, and cars.






A nice oldie.






The family at the car show.






Carmen and I before family pics.

The dogs were worn out after all their playing. Buddy(White), and Divot.



Carmen and Buddy ready to head home on Sunday.

It was much too quiet after everybody had left. It was hard to say goodbye but it was so fun to see everybody.

Happy Anniversary Padres!

Summer is Moving right along.

Life is good. My brother and Sister-in-Law got here from Des Moines this afternoon. I have not seen them in two years and am very glad to have them here.

The past few days have been nice. Monday through Wednesday, it was bloody hot.
The weather here is bipolar because softball on Tuesday was too hot and then tonight I was playing in a hooded sweatshirt! Crazy. Tuesday we won 8-4. It was fun to play. I wore these rockin' socks:


Tonight, we lost by over ten but actually got to play all seven innings without the ten run rule stopping play. That's progress, right?

Wednesday was taco night again. Here are two pictures from the festivities:



They are as good as they look!!!



Cute kids, right? That Nathaniel in the front is one happy kid. He makes me smile and laugh lots.

Here is a sign of summer. The first painting of the toenails happened recently:



I like summer. I also like cool bumper stickers.



Well, off to read the end of Catching Firehopefully I will not fall asleep while attempting to finish it. Wish me luck!
