Disney Playhouse!!

Josh and Hailey painted the stairway/ hallway today a brick red color!! It actually looks really good, however, it is not completed!! What you see in the picture is only the base coat... Josh is planning on getting it done tomorrow with the hand rails back up!! (Mom and Nana that will make you happy) While the two of them were painting they decided that they were on a painting show and both of them were the hosts!! It was quite funny to hear the two of them going on and on about painting... Hailey decided that they were acutally on an episode of Disney Playhouse!! Where do these kids think of these things.... Yes I know that is a real show :) I will get more pictures up on our site as soon as it is ready!!!

Meet "Jax"

Josh and I were given a 6 year old Golden Retriever from a coworker of mine... His name is Jax and fits in perfectly with our family!! We are both so excited for Hailey to meet him tomorrow, we know that she is going to love him!! He loves to play fetch and I was outside earlier throwing snowballs and he was bringing them back to me.... On a couple of occasions he ate the ball of snow instead, then looked around everywhere trying to find it!! It was qutie comical!! I love watching him burry his head in the snow as if he had just found a treasure!! I am so proud of him, he was home all day today by himself and I did not find one mess to clean up!! Good Boy!! However, he was more than anxious to go out when he finally saw me!! He also enjoys giving hugs, high fives and shaking your hand!! I will certainly get a picture of Hailey and Jax together!!

Fashion Icon!

I was busy making dinner last Friday night when I checked in on Hailey in the other room and discovered that she was playing dressup!! She decided that it would be appropriate for her to wear her ensamble at the dinner table!! It reminded me of that McDonalds commercial.... Hopefully you know the one I am talking about!!!

First Snowman Of The Year!!

A couple of weeks ago while Hailey and I were waiting for her mom to pick her up we decided to build a snowman!! This is a very small one and he must of had a complex because by the end of the night he decided to take his life and fell down!!! May he rest in peace!! Hailey sure had a good time making him!!

Where Has Time Gone?!?!

I cannot believe how long it has been since I have posted to my blog!! I am such a slacker! Truth be told I have not been feeling up to speed the past several weeks and I all want to do is lay down when I get home from work!! Josh and I have been keeping ourselves quite busy with work and the holiday just around the cornor!! Can you believe it?!?! We have Hailey at noon on Christmas day and we are certainly looking forward to this... As it will be our first Christmas with Hailey as a family! I have so much to catch up on so if you will all bear with me I will post again soon!! Promise!! Hugs to all and a great weekend!!

Lions, Tigers and Bears.... Oh My!!

What a fun day Hailey and I had today!! I picked her up from Kindergarten and our adventure began!! Last night I was trying to think of somthing fun that I could do with Little Miss since it was going to be such a georgous day today!! 50 degrees on December 5th was perfect Zoo weather!! Hailey was most excited when I told her where we were going!! Josh started driving full time at FedEx so it was just the girls today! However, after the zoo I took Hailey down to where Josh's route was so that they could visit while he was on his break! She was so happy to see him! I was quite surprised to see that most of the animals were out today and that there was no crowd in sight!! Past experience has taught me not to go to the zoo on a weekend, a free day or when the Christmas lights are on!!

We loved watching the monkey's play and climb on their toys. One of the monkey's reached his hand out and was grabbing the bushes to get the twigs off of them.... Not sure if he was eating them or if it became a game! There were peacock's roaming free all around the zoo and a couple of times they walked up to us.... Hailey wanted them to spread their feathers out!

Hailey's favorite animal by far is the Giaraff! However, she did enjoy watching the seal and sea lion frolic in their pools!! She could have stood there for hours.

Hailey laughed so hard when I told her elephant poop was as big as rocks... She could not believe it... I could not believe it myself! These animals are huge!!I loved watching the bears... I could not believe that I was standing 10 feet from them watching in amazement and knew I was completely safe! I told Hailey how Grandpa Barber saw a black bear in the white mountains and he video taped it!! She giggled!! What a beautiful animal!!

We had such a fun time!! Thanks Hailey for being my date today! I had so much fun with you!

Family Fun Time!!!

Sunday after we got home from church we decided that it would be fun to decorate Gingerbread Houses with Hailey!! We had such a great time decorating the houses, snacking on graham crackers and eating frosting!! Hailey did not have a lot of luck building hers so dad helped get hers up and going!! She was so proud of it!! Dad's house took the cake.... He built a chimney on his and took cotton swab cotton to make it look like snow!! What an imagination!! We turned up the Christmas music and went to town!!

Walking In A Winter Wonderland!!

We looked out the window and what did we see.... Snow falling down from the apricot tree!! YEAH!! Finally it has snowed!! We love it!! Josh picked up Hailey today and she got to come and hang out with me at work for a couple of hours then we came home to play in the SNOW!!!! Our journey in the snow did not last long... It was FREEZING!!! We wanted to run inside and get really warm!!! Hailey was eating the snow and I told her that I loved mixing snow with Dr. Pepper and making yummy slushies!!! Her eyes lit up with the thought!! We had a good time out there!!! Hailey loves anything that has to do with being outdoors!!

What A Week!!

Can I just say that I am not looking forward to this week! We are extremely busy at work so I know it will go by fast but it stinks that we only have Thursday off!! I am completely bummed out! I cannot remember the last time I had to work the day after Thanksgiving!! UGH!!! At least traffic on Friday will not be bad, however, I know that most of the cars out on the road will be heading out with friends and family to various stores to fulfill a tradition many know as "Black Friday" To all my family in Arizona... I hope you all have a wonderful day!! Have fun at the stores, Breakfast and Lunch!! Beware of all the crazed moms in search of Tickle Me Elmo!!!

Kids Say The Darndest Things!!

Hailey informed Josh and I on Sunday that we have cracks in our forehead!! I informed Hailey that those were not cracks that they were merely wrinkles that you get as your grow older!! Is that how children really view things.... I guess I have asked some pretty crazy things myself to my elders... What are some random things your kids have said to you!!! I guess when they say "You crack me up... You really did"

Tea For Three!!

Saturday afternoon Hailey was outside playing with kids in the neighborhood!! Deja and Hailey have become pals over the past couple of months and whenever Deja comes over to the house she always informs me that she cannot come inside until her mom meets me!! That all changed on Saturday when we all rode bikes back to her house so I could formally meet her mom!! (All these parental things I am clueless about) I told her mom that we would be happy to have Deja over at our house and she said she would be by in an hour or so to pick her up!! Deja and Hailey were so excited to have their long over due tea party!! Little did I know they were upstairs playing dress up getting ready for the event! I was in the family room watching Mona Lisa Smile when Deja comes down the stairs to inform me that I have been invited to a "royal tea party" and that I was expected to wear something fancy!! Who could resist such and invitation!! I had so much fun at their tea party and I look forward to many more!!

"CHEERS"

Don't Ask!!!!

Apparently Josh and Hailey thought it would be fun to draw mustaches on their faces with washable markers... Trust me it was quite the sight!! The 2 of them are 2 peas in a pod!! Love to have fun with eachother!! Saturday night Josh took Hailey out for a date night!! I guess this was the perfect way to end the evening!! Luckily it came off that night so they did not look like two people still in their Halloween costumes for church!!

Puppies and Chipotle

Last Friday I met Josh at FedEx for a very important package!! That package would be Hailey!! Our most precious cargo!! I took Hailey back to my office where she entertained herself for a couple of hours on the Sesame Street web site! After leaving my office we decided that we would go to the Dumb Friends League to look at puppies up for adoption!! Hailey wants a puppy so bad!! Josh and I have decided that would be a great Christmas present! After we went to the DFL we went to Chipotle for a very yummy and a very well deserved burrito!! Actually Hailey and I shared a taco trio!! However, it was so good!! She was quite comical while eating her taco!! After we were done eating I had to go to the bathroom for the upteenth time that day!! Hailey and I earlier had to rush into a gas station bathroom to go... So here we were at Chipotle using their very large bathroom and Hailey proceeded to show me how her dad (Josh) dances.... She was so cute and so funny, I laughed so hard and she started giggling as well!! I love spending time with Hailey and I am so grateful that Josh allows me have so much one on one time with her!!

All About Me!!

I was tagged by Carley to list 6 things about myself!!

1. I would rather take a shower than a bath!

2. I hit the snooze button at least twice every morning... Or I will change the alarm time!!

3. I do not like to be home alone.... I am scared of the dark (a little, ok a lot)

4. I love a clean house!! (Mom aren't you glad)

5. I love to play in the leaves and I love playing in the snow!!

6. I love spending time with Josh, my family and friends!!

6 1/2. I miss my family

Trick-Or-Treat!!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!! We hope everybody had a safe and great Halloween!! Hailey was able to spend Halloween with us this year and she had a great time Trick-Or-Treating!! The first picture was taken at my coworker Jess's house!! Hailey was Snow White and I was a Black Cat!! Not so scary though!! We had so much fun out tonight going to different houses!! I had to run some errands earlier today and Hailey wore her costume while we were out and about!! Good thing because she was able to trick-or-treat at the mall!! She got so much candy and got much much more this evening... To bad most of it will be laid to rest in the garbage can!!! Did anyone do anything fun and exciting?!?! Anyone make it to the 13th floor of a haunted house!! Some of the houses we went to tonight were a little intense!! A couple of them Hailey decided that she did not want to go up to the door... I do not blame her!! She was still talking about it on the way home, I hope that she is able to sleep good tonight!! I cannot believe that October has come and gone and another Halloween is over!! This year has gone by entirely way to fast!! I am not ready for 2008!! But I know it is coming so bring it on!! Again HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!! MEOW!

I Lo Lo Lo Lo Love......

Call me crazy, call me weird, call me whatever floats your boat but I am in love with Febrezes new line of "Limited Edition" scents!! Our home can go from smelling like nothing to "Autum Spice and Crisp" or their newest "Mountain Pine and Snow" all in the slow click of a trigger!!! I love it!! I am using the Mountain Pine and Snow right now and it smells like I am up in the mountains in some cozy little cabin... I can close my eyes and just imagine I am in front of a warm crackling fireplace snuggled up on the couch reading a great book without a care in the world!!! Awwww... Heaven!! If anyone wants to come visit me in my little cabin, just close your eyes and drop on by!!

Just Around The Cornor!!

After dinner tonight I was debating what to do with my time... Since the house was all clean and the last of the laundry was in the washer and dryer I was racking my brain! I decided that tonight would be a perfect night for homemade chocolate chip cookies!! YUMMY!!! As I was getting all of the ingredients out and onto the counter I wanted nothing more than to listen to Christmas carols! Much to my surprise I have no holiday cds! Bummer!! Here we are not even to Halloween and I want to listen to Christmas music!! Maybe it is because the stores are already starting to play games with my mind! I cannot believe that holiday decorations are already out! Every year they seem to come out earlier and earlier... I bet in about 5 years they will just be left out year round!! Needless to say I made my cookies and I rocked out to Enya... Okay I did not rock out but it was up pretty loud!! I love having a house that enables me to listen to my music loud and dance around the floor without neighbors banging broom stick handles on the ceiling!! I am so ready for the holiday season!!! Less than 2 months!!!

Welcome Home!!

Josh, Hailey and I got home from South Dakota yesterday around 3:00!! All 3 of us had such a great time visiting Grandma and Grandpa!! Josh's parents have a lot of land surrounding thier home and it makes for a great playground!! Hailey had so much fun riding the John Deer Gator around the house, flying kites, petting and feeding the horses, running around with the dog, swinging on the swings and hiking up and down the hills! She kept herself very busy!! My nephew Chance spends the weekends at Grandma and Grandpa's so it was great for the 2 of them to play together!! Chance showed Hailey the ropes!! Hailey fell in love with his parents dog!! She is quite the skeptic when it comes to big dogs and was shy around Kennedy at first but completely warmed up to him!! She was thrilled when Grandma and Grandpa said it could sleep with her at night!! I was quite shocked at how much she loved playing with him!! Hailey said that Kennedy was her bestest bestest friend!!

A couple of months ago Josh's parents home got hammered with softball sized hail so they have had quite a project on their hands!! They have been reroofing their home for the past 3 weeks and Josh jumped right in to help out!! I am amazed at how much they accomplised in the 4 days we were there!! Hopefully it will get done in the next couple of days! They got pretty lucky that the rain and snow never came as predicted.. However, the wind was out of control!! I had so much fun playing with Hailey and Chance, I have not flown a kite in quite awhile and it made me feel like a kid again!! We also had a great time with Vance and Jenny (Josh's brother and wife) and their 2 kids! We were able to go over to their house for awhile the last night we were there and visit with them!! Thanks Jenny for the glow braceletts!! Hailey loves them!!

It was great to get out of Denver for a few days and regroup before the crazy buzz of the holidays!! I cannot believe that next week is Halloween!! Hailey will be at our house that night so we will be able to take her trick-or-treating!! She is really excited!! We are happy to be home and we were welcomed with a blanket of snow in our backyard!! Looks like the cold weather is on its way!!

On Vacation!!

Josh, Hailey and I are here in good ol' Rapid City, SD... We are having a great time and we are enjoying spending time with Grandma and Grandpa aka papa!! I have taken a lot of pictures, however, I am unable to upload them here at their house!! We are leaving here on Tuesday so I will certainly have a lot to brag, I mean, blog about!! It has been quite chilly!! We left Denver at 8:30 on Friday night... It was nice for Hailey because she was able to sleep about 5 of the 6 hours we were driving!! What a trooper!! I hope everyone is doing well!!

I Love My Husband!!

As I walked into the kitchen after I got home tonight I noticed a vase full of beautiful red roses on the counter!! Certainly brought a big smile to my face!! I could not wait to find the perfect home for them... Right on the coffee table!! I think it adds a little something extra, don't you think?!?! Thank you Josh..... MU WAH!!!

Pee Into This Cup!

Nobody likes to pee in a cup!! However, I probably would not mind so much if I were at my doctors office taking a pregnancy test... That was not the case today!! After contemplating for quite sometime I have decided to get a part time job at Target!! Yes I will be sporting the sweet khakis and the red shirt with the cool target nametag!! I will be working there as a "Seasonal" employee!! Apparently I am a little bland and they think seasoning me for 90 days is going to spice me up a little!!

With this new adventure in my life I needed to take a drug test to make sure that I am not a crack case. I had 24 hours from noon today to complete this amazing test!! I could hardly contain myself!! I drove my little self to the medical plaza where we do our patient surgeries... Oh how I wish I was scrubbing up to go into the O.R. instead!

First of all I get lost trying to find this place.... How hard could it be you ask.. Let me tell you!! I get in the elevator and take it to the 2nd floor... I am on a mission to find suite 234c! I turn to my right and go down a hallway, cross an inclosed bridge and somehow I am now on the 3rd floor! Hmmm!! I wonder around walking through a maze of hallways and nothing! I finally go into an OBGYN office (Not for a pregnancy test) to ask where in the world is 234c!!! I felt like saying "Where in the world is Carmen San Diego?" Much to my surprise I have walked through a door and somehow ended up in Japan... The lady at the front desk was on the phone and did not even look up to see who had come in.... She was jabbering on the phone to someone in what I could only explain to be Japanese! I look at the name plate on the desk and I will just call the doctor, Dr. Ching Chong Wing Wong!! The receptionist finally gets off the phone and tells me how to get to my destination!! Go out the hall, across the bridge and down to the 2nd floor.... Holy Hanna!! I finally get to the lab!! ICKY!!! The ladies at the front desk were everything but friendly... I am sure they were happy because they were chowing down on Wendy's and talking on the cell phone. What a hard job!! I look around at the other people in the waiting room, which was the size of a midgets closet and realize I am a little out of my element! Finally it is my turn to go back... At least I think it is... I hear my name being called from the back of the office!! She might as well have gotten a blow horn!!

When I get to the back the unfriendly lady instantly tells me to lock my purse in this little ice box looking thing!! She gives me my little clear plastic cup and tells me that when the gentleman in front of me finishes I need to go in there and pee and I have 4 min!! Never have I ever been timed on my ability to urinate!! The only person I know who can pee that long is Tom Hanks in a League of Their Own! The bathroom is a little frightening!! There is tape all along the cabinets and signs that read.... "Do not flush unless told to" and "Do not wash your hands, hands must be washed in the lab" Ew ew ew ew GROSS!!! So not only have just pee'd into a cup I now have to put my hand on the door knob and take the germ infested cup back to the unfriendly lady.. I realize I am holding the key to my icebox and others before who used the same key did not wash their hands till the end!! Now I have a germ infested cup and a germ infested key! I give my specimen to the lady, wash my hands and run for the exit!! Hopefully I will not be doing that again anytime soon!! Next time I will bring my little travel toilet seat covers and hand sanitizer!!

Rocktober Is Well Under Way!!!

Today was offically declared "Purple Tuesday" We are all very excited about the Rockies and their performace over the past month!!! I am sorry to all of the Arizona fans who read this blog... However, you know what it felt like when the Diamondbacks went to the series!! Let us have our moment!! It certainly is nice to finally see the stadium at full capicity!! It was quite sad going to the games and seeing so many empty seats!! I cannot believe how far they have come!!! Now, we just need the nuggets to pull through, then we have been to every major sports championship!! Super Bowl, Stanley Cup and the World Series!! GO ROCKIES!!!

PS- If anyone wants to come out for the games we have lots of room!!! HAHAHAHA!! I think going to a game would be so much fun.... However, tickets are out of control!!!

Do The Cocomotion With Me!!

I love this machine!! Greatest thing ever!! If you love hot chocolate at the perfect temperature this is your new best friend!! I have had this for a couple of years and I just brought it out becuase I was in the mood for some smooth hot chocolate running down my throat!! Mom and Bob have one also and I know that they love theirs as well!! However, they do not get to use theirs nearly as often as we do!! They sale these puppies at Wolly World... AKA Wal-Mart, I found a link if anyone wants more info!! http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=1894448 Well worth the investment, especially with little kiddos.... Their hot chocolate will never be to hot!! Enjoy!! I hope we all have a warm rest of the year!!

Fall, Fall, Fall!!

It's beginning to look a lot like Falllll everywhere we go!!! So I decided to change a few words to the Christmas song!! Brrrrrr....! I must say it is quite chilly outside!! I am sad to see our warm weather go into hiberantion over the next 7 months! I am not sure that I am ready for the snow!! However, I love fall!! I love the way the air smells, crisp, fresh, etc..... I love watching the leaves change colors and the way the trees outline the roads as if you were driving through a painting!! I get excited when I get to pull out my warmer clothes and find my cute scarves and ski hats! I wish fall lasted a little longer than a few short weeks... I am sure it is longer than that, it just seems that the snow comes much faster than anticipated!!

What The..... Hail!!!

I was laying on the couch after cleaning out the garage, I wanted to relax for a moment before conquering my next task!! I must have started dozing off because I had quite the wakening!! Thunder clapped so loud I am surprised that I did not roll right off the couch... I thought my heart was going to beat out of my chest!! The rain got louder and louder and then sounded like rocks were pelting the windows!! I opened the front door and saw white everywhere!!! It was so cool!! I scooped up a handful and brought it in to show Josh!! I went back outside and saw that the streets were flooding... I cannot believe how much rain fell in the 10 minutes it rained!! While outside Josh decided to come out and have a "Hailball" fight!! I was laughing really hard! I am so glad that I put the cars into the garage when I was done cleaning!! I am not ready for snow!!!

The 411!!!

I was on a serious mission this morning... CLEAN THE GARAGE OUT!! With winter sneaking upon us I really wanted to get our cars into it!! I was out thre forever it seemed like getting everything put away and thrown away... Josh bought a shop vac a couple of months ago and it became my new best friend!! I love it!! While cleaning out the garage I noticed some cars at the neighbors house... A woman walked outside and I asked them if they needed any boxes since I noticed them carrying some inside the house... The woman was Jen's mom. She told me what had happened... Apparently Jen (our neighbor) had been really sick for quite sometime... She had liver failure and that is what she died from... Not suicide!! I feel much better knowing that it was natural causes. They believe that she died on Monday night and it was not until the mom and sister went over on Wednesday that they found her! I just wanted to set it all straight as to what happened!! I guess I should not jump so quickly to conclusions!

New And Improved!!

As promised here is a much better picture!! I am so thrilled that the braces are finally off!! However, I still feel like a teeny bopper!! Sorry mom, I know our bed is messy.... Look past it :)

Just so all of you know I am doing much better... I slept well last night!! I am still a little jumpy at times but I am doing better!! I called the Aurora Police Department and it sounds like she did it to herself! I saw two women there tonight, I assume they were cleaning up the house... They had cleaning supplies, etc... One walked out wiping her eyes and I felt really bad for her!! I wanted to go over, but decided it may not be appropriate!!

I Wish I Would Have Walked Inside!!

I certainly have thought about this over and over again debating if I wanted to post this on my blog! However, blogs are about life and our experiences good or bad!!

Yesterday started out as any normal day... Actually no it did not! We usually do not see patients on Wednesday but we saw patients yesterday morning because we are off tomorrow!! It worked out perfectly because Josh was able to bring Little Miss to her first dental appointment!! She was such a trooper!! X-rays, cleaning, exam and all!! It certainly was fun to see her at work and to be able to clean her teeth!! On Wednesdays I work the afternoon because we have Hailey mid-morning, but since I had to work in the morning I ended up staying all day!! Jess called me as I was getting ready to head home to let me know that we would not be able to walk... I was happy about that becasue I was getting a little tired and wanted to go home and rest!! My drive home was pretty typical... Phone call to Mom and Kelli to catch up on the latest and greatest!

I pulled into our neighborhood around 5:45.... As I rounded the street I noticed something very alarming... Parked outside our home were 4 police vehicles... I thought thats a little odd!! I was not sure what had happened, but whatever it was, was not normal!! I got out of my car and walked next door to the neighbors on our left and asked what had happened... They were unsure, however, we were all curious!! The cops were at the house across the street from ours! As time went on undercover detectives showed up and the crime lab came and all went inside the house... I was beginning to feel as though I was in Hollywood on the set of Desperate Housewives!! It was beginning to really make me feel uncomfortable... At one point I went inside our house but my curiosity got the better of me.... I should know better by now that things like this do not sit well with me!! I wish I would have stayed inside and watched dancing with the stars!! I went back out and went a couple houses down and was talking with more neighbors... Actually we all congregated over there and we were watching what was unfolding!! I will not go into details of what I saw but I will say the lady who lived across from us is no longer living there and the for sale sign was taken down this morning! We are still unsure as to what happened to her, whether there was foul play or if she committed suicide... I am sure as days go on it will come out!! Finally when I went back inside I realized just how much it got to me to see it. Josh was working late so after I called and talked to him about it I called Jess.... I went over to her house for about an hour until Josh got home!! I did not want to be by myself... Last night was full of crazy dreams so I woke up very tired!! I was a little better today and driving home but again all the neighbors were outside and we got to talking!! I was still ok with it and then I was home alone again and I did not like it!! Hence, why I did not want to get on the computer... It is down in the basement!! If I hear anything I will certainly let you all know!! The cop informed us the "Everything is not ok, however, we are all ok" Meaning all the neighbors! I thought this kind of stuff only happened in the movies!! Quite disturbing!

I am so sorry if this made anyone uncomfortable!! I did not know my neighbor... I saw her occasionally coming and going! She lived in her house alone and it has been on the market for quite sometime!

And They Are Off!!

I wanted to take a better picture, however, this will have to do for right now! I have had such a crazy couple of days and I really have not been in the mood to be on the computer!! I promise to get a much better picture and get it up for all to see!!

Proud To Be a Woman!!

I do not think there are words to descibe what I had the privilage of doing this morning!! I had the opportunity to do the race for the cure 5K!! (Breast Cancer Walk/ Run) I did the race with my friend/co-worker Jess!! (You know the one who biffed it rollerblading) First of all it was the perfect day for a race!! It was a little chilly, however, all we needed to do is add the layers on!! I think it was in the low 50's by time we got downtown!! I was overwhelmed with many emotions throughout the morning, and I still cannot help thinking about it!! All the many surviors that were walking and those walking for loved ones that had passed on!! People were wearing little signs on their back that said who they were walking for!! Above the names it said "In Celebration of.... or In Memory of" I smiled when I saw those whose lives were being celebrated because they beat this horrible disease.... On the other hand my heart broke when I saw someones sign that said In memory of My Wife, or My Mom, My Sister, My Friend, etc.... I cannot believe how many people came out today to support such a great cause.... They estimated about 67,000 people came to walk!! Some were currently fighting for their life!! I met a woman who was diagnosed a couple of months ago who has recently lost her hair and is having a double mastectomy in December!! While walking with these women and men I could not help but think to myself how grateful I am to be a woman!!! I felt so close to all these women and I had no idea who they were.... However, the bond goes much deeper... If that makes any sense!! I could not help but think of those who I know personally who have been through this fight!!! Aunt Phyllis, Grandma Bair and I am sure there are many more women I know!! I encourage all of you if you have a race in your state to get out and do it!! I promise you it is so worth it, I promise no regrets!!

Even the dogs got into the spirit!! Your eyes are not playing tricks on you, this poodle was in fact pink!!!
