We are going to try one more time!

STILL TRAVELING!
and still trying to post this blog. . .
this is the third attempt and if i push send and it doesn't work. . .i guess you won't see this message or these photos! :-)
Thank God for FAMILY! We stayed with Dave and Lisa in KY last week and it was great. So so so appreciative. We were in luxury to have a "home" to come home to. To be able to eat there (not go out) and have our own rooms! WOW!
Some of the highlights below. Our visits were mainly in the late evening b/c we all worked so late, but I was grateful for the time we had.
L was being adventurous. . .wanted to do shots! Ray volunteered to participate. . .
Cheers!
Eeww. . .what did I just do?
Trivia on the WIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!! Really hard, and they cheat at that house :-)
D's Bday with Alex and L -- SUSHI! The best. . .
L's FIRST saki Bomb -- I was shocked! We had a tutorial.
Drunk in the walk in beer cooler at the gas station.
Tres Amigos
The REASON for the trip! They were amazing and we had a great week! Almost 70 people there! It was good to be back.

Two Months Later. . .


Our New Home
Almost 2 months later, here you go! The Blog Photo Tour. I know you are shocked that there have been so many posts in such little time! If you are just checking back, scroll down. There are a lot of new updates!

The View from the front porch

Front Door(obviously)
Living Room (you see this as you open front door)
To the right of the couches . . . wired for gas logs -- I'm saving up! McIvers love their fires!
Rob and Dave -- this shot is for you! I'm finally with the times!
Dining area

Kitchen views -- small, but I love it. The only thing it needs is more cab. space, and maybe not have the W/D in there! But I'm grateful to havae one!!

Master Bedroom and Bathroom

Bathroom view #2

Guest Bathroom - Guest Bedroom/Office not shown b/c it's a DISASTER area! All my disaster. George didn't believe I could fill a two bedroom apt by myself! :-)

There you have it! Come and VISIT!

Night Light has a new meaning

LAST NIGHT
This is what I was trying to sleep through. . .a new night light outside my bedroom window. Our place backs up to the freeway -- usually not an issue at all. It's pretty quiet (surprisingly), but now we have night time visitors . . . UNTIL 2011!!!
Not sure what they are doing, but it's BRIGHT!


Thismorning. . .a little clearer view. . .still not sure what's up!

Back to Panama City

Awhile back I wrote that I was in PC for KAR finals #2 (end of June), but left no update! SORRY! Here are some pics. . .we ended up having another harrowing set up experience, but. . .it allowed me to not work on my birthday! We just went to the beach and went to bed awaiting a wakeup call that didn't come until 2:30 am!!!! So we went in and did our J-O-B. I truly feel accomplished after I work for that company. No matter the obstacle, we are a TEAM and get it done!!! That's pretty RAD. :-) Beach below! We went swimming and wave jumping; I love the gulf beaches -- you can get in! Out here it's too cold :-(

See the thunderstorm in the distance??
The water was crystal blue; you could see your feet in the sand!
