We work out

Something fun is that I had one of Vega's beginning Hip Hop teachers come and teach a dance to my class on an in-between routines week. We had so much fun. Photobucket

Memorial Day Weekend - part 1

We took off for a much needed 5 day weekend over Memorial Day. We landed in Pendleton for our first night away and then headed east to Vale, where we waited to follow John's mom to their new house.

We walked in to be greeted by this furry welcome wagon (waggin'?).

The Judy kids' senior pictures decorated the room we stayed in.

It's always fun to see what John's dad has in the old car department so I snapped my way around.

We had a great dinner with John's folks and then took off to explore the countryside from the very fun seats of the RTV.

Photo Challenge: Weekly Recap

Day 12 - something that makes you happy
A perfect Saturday. Laying in the sun with my ipod and a good book after a day of boot camp and a motorcycle ride. (PS: weird how my old broken rib is so much bigger than the non-broken one. I usually don't see it because my boobs obstruct the view)

Day 16 - what you're reading
Well, I started 50 Shades of Grey last week but since it is essentially porn, I don't feel comfortable reading it on the bus, so I switched books for commuting and will finish 50 Shades at home. Normally, I just like to read one at a time.

Day 17 - snack
Chow down, chipmunk.

Day 18 - something you made
These sweet Derby hats

Dance beers

After dance last night, a few students and I trotted over to the nearby bar and shared a couple pitchers of beer.  I hadn't realized how fancy I looked from behind until one of them point out my matching shorts and purse.

We had such a great time. I came home with sore abs and really wish I could have attributed them to my workout but honestly, it was from all the laughing afterwards. Photobucket
