February

The new layout and picture is to represnt a couple of things that will happen this month.!! One of course being Valentines Day.!! and the other will be... Mine and Rickys 1yr anniversary. Boy, has time flown by or what.!? In all actuality, I feel like Ricky and I have been married for like 5yrs or something.. It feels like it has actually been several years since being married, rather than 1 yr. Some people on the other hand reach their 1yr of marriage mark and feel as if it's only been a couple of months.!! But, I guess with all that we have gone through and experienced over the last year, including the birth of our amazing, handsome son Hyrum Jerrold, we have been kept pretty busy and occupied.! Any way, Other than that, we had a good weekend. We of course went bowling Friday night with our friends Ryan and Jessica, then on Saturday we went to their place to drop off a glider chair and stool for them and ended up going to down town Seattle and walked around at the Army Surplus store, then we went over to the malls and walked around. We went into Brookstone and all got amazing back and foot massages from the display machines then, played on this new and rather amusing, odd, workout machine type of thing called the I-Gallop. It aparently has been out for a couple of years, but this was our first time to see it..... If you ever have the chance to stop by one of their stores..... you MUST check it out.!!! I laughed so hard watching Ryan, Ricky, and Jessica try it out that it made me cry. I even got on and couldn't stop laughing and Hyrum started laughing at me when he saw me on it as well. Whoever created this machince should win an award for the most amusing work out machine to have ever been created.!! Genious.!! Any way, I could write a whole blog just on our adventure with the i-gallop, but it is simply something you must see for yourself.! After we were done at Brookstone we went to Barnes and Noble, then the boys went and retrieved the car while Jess and I fed Hyrum and changed his diaper. On our way back to Ryan and Jessica's home we stopped on the water front at Alki to see the view of Seattle from across the water. After getting back to Ryan and Jessica's the boys "Ricky and Ryan" took apart the glider chair and reassembled it correctly, because the previous owner had not done so, which i am sure is why they ended up not liking it, and passed it along. Any way, while they did they, Jessica and I looked up YouTube videos of the iGallop machine and laughed at it some more... yes, i know, immature maybe.? but we seriously think it's hillarious. Any way, I am going to end on that note. I hope everybody else had a great weekend.!!
