Dancin' in the rain...





My little sis had a run in with some Kings of Leon tickets last minute. She asked me to go with go so of course I was on board. We got out of town as soon as I got out of work, came home took a quick shower and got dressed. It was still extremely hot here in Pueblo so I thought I would wear a comfy sundress. We hit the road and headed north for Denver and of course hit a major rainstorm on the way. This Colorado weather is insane not to mention I was not really wearing rain friendly attire. I knew I should have wore my rain boots!!!! So it pretty much continued to rain the entire time. The drive up, through dinner at “Gunther Toody’s” ( a 50’s themed diner in Denver) , and through the whole concert. Luckily I never leave home un-prepared and I packed some extra clothes which I changed into at the diner.
At the show we danced in rain to some awesome tunes and got totally soaked! “Built to Spill” opened up for K-O-L and they were pretty great too.
So I failed to mention that we parked about two blocks away from the venue in a “free” parking lot - which consisted of weeds and dirt. We left the show prior to the encore because we wanted to beat the insane traffic that would be sure to follow. I drive a 1998 Volkswagen GTI…NOT the best to drive up a dirt hill after it has been raining for hours and has now turned into mud. So yea we drove half way up the little hill and pretty much slid right back down, after a couple more failed and scary attempts I backed it up and took a different route. We finally made it! I was pretty scary, I had no idea driving on mud was worse than driving on ice. My car just went pretty much wherever it wanted and luckily we didn’t hit any parked cars when sliding because we came VERY close! The ride home was smooth and seemed pretty short which I was thankful for since I was a little tired.

Here are some pics from the day:

So a year has passed since my last blog. Many changes have happened and mostly positive ones! I quit my job at Express Scripts last April and was a stay at home mom throughout the summer. It was awesome. I worked through the holidays then recently started a new job at an appraisal agency as an office manager. I enjoy the fact that I have a schedule that works for Poesy and I. My mom is babysitting Poe while I work which is awesome, I don't know what I would do without her. Right now my sister is here visiting and we have had so much fun so far doing lots of stuff and trying to keep the kids busy and happy. So far we have done a lot of swimming, Pueblo West splash pad, colored the older girls hair, henna, nails, Finding Dory at the Drive-In, shopping, Manitou Springs, BBQ's, and lots of laughing. I love when we are all together and when the kids get to play together. Later this week will be going to Walsenburg's little water park. Until next time....

Happy New Year!! I'm only a few weeks late. This month seems likes it has gone by with the blink of an eye. I have so many new projects going on I can't keep my days straight half of the time. I started hosting cardsome fun card classes where I put kits together and a bunch of crafty ladies get together and assemble them.I have Poesy's 2nd birthday coming up to plan. This year we are having it at a tumbling place since I will have a two year old who loves to jump and climb on EVERYTHING. I think it's going to be a blast! Then we have we have our October wedding to plan! We couldn't decide if we were going to to do an actual wedding for sure or not but we decided to go ahead and have one. We want to celebrate each other and it is sure to be alots of fun. The colors will be mainly black with grey and orange accents and a shabby chic Halloweenie theme. The date is set for 10.30.15 After Poesy's party I want to get started on the decor since I want it to be pr

Good Morning! I am just loving this fall weather we are having these days. I love being able to have all the windows open in the house and have a cool breeze come through. We are pretty much ready for Halloween as far as decorating the house goes. I didn't get as crazy as I normally like to because Poesy likes to grab, pull, and destroy pretty much anything she can get her little mitts on. What can I expect though really when there are cool shiny things within her reach! She is growing so fast and is so smart. She makes me just want to sit and watch her all day. She likes to sing and dance. Her favorite song is "Happy Birthday". Her list of words is getting longer each day and so is her wild and crazy hair. She wears size 18 months clothes, size 4 shoes, and size 3 diapers. Teething is not as bad as it once was but still bugs her sometimes at night. We are still co-sleeping - we were going to try to get her into her own crib but it was harder on us than her I thin
