Nothingness

Beautiful tulips from Costco. I just couldn't get enough of them, so I took a picture. I love spring and tulips.



Kalie and I accidentally wearing matching outfits, white shirts, purple scarfs, brown hair, etc...
I miss my eyelashes!!!



Made this festive dessert. I'd give it a B for the first try. I probably ate my weight in raspberries and frosting during the decorating process.


Kalie being held by her boyfriend, me holding my boyfriend.... yeah, I know. (By the way, Tyson's pants are supposed to be that short)



Cute little Tyson golfing on a beautiful summer evening.



Maga actually IN THE POOL at the Johnson pool party at the Club.



In the next post you will hear about our little excursion to Richfield. I had to go down for work and I was presenting. This is the sign on my door. I had my own room for the presentation sessions.



This is me with all my presentation stuff (Mama Jessie was so proud of her little professional). I don't know if you know, but I'm a pretty big deal. It was terrifying. Playing teacher as a kid was WAY more fun.

Thank you Focus Features

I love a good chick-flick as much as the next broad, but even more, I love the real-life movies. The ones that never make the big blockbuster bucks or get the cardboard displays in the theaters, but resound with their audience in a way that is unique, realistic, and relate-able. The latest of these to receive my adoration is called Away We Go (not recommended for all, due to some un-savory parts). The movie is about an expecting couple and their journey to find a place they can call home. Everything about their life and story was mediocre, and none of it mattered because they loved each other. Jessica and I walked out of the movie LOVING mediocrity. It can be such a wonderfully simple and beautiful thing to be ordinary. To be totally un-exceptional. It was a great lesson to me, not to stop trying, but to relax and enjoy life, and above all, that love is the most important thing.

Away We Go (have a look-see if you'd like)

Also, Focus Features... THANK YOU for Pride and Prejudice.

One more thing:

Cute right?! I finally own it! I have been searching for a cruiser all summer. Hopefully I will soon have a photo of me actually riding the dang thing. It lives at my parents house, and any chance I get, I take it for a spin around the block, or at least around the circle.
