Shocking....just shocking

I know I shouldn't blog about this since I didn't vote but I have been watching and do have an opinion. So here goes. Kris...winning...really? He is okay...when I can understand what he is singing. He is kind of a mumbler singer. But really....clearly Adam is a much better performer/singer. I loved him singing with Kiss! CLASSIC! Danny was and is my favorite but I just knew Adam was going to win. WOW! I am shocked! It was a great season with many suprises. I loved Kara singing last night! That was AWESOME!

2009 Race for the Cure

We went to Helena for Race for the Cure last weekend & had a BLAST! I left work early on Friday so we could get to Helena early, relax, swim & visit with the Wilmas. I was meeting my parents in Bozeman for supper & then my Mom & I would be off. Well my Dad wanted to get home so he ate & left before we were finished. So as my Mom & I were almost finished, I asked my Mom where her bags were. 

Side note: Now you have to understand my Mom. She would be devistated to go somewhere without her curling iron & make up. There would be no borrowing that stuff for her.

She looked at me and said a couple choice words. She tried to my brother in Gardiner. No answer. She tried his girlfriend. No answer. She knew they would be at Kelly's shop. He answered. Gave the phone to Maaika and said, "It sounds important." My Mom asked her to try track down my Dad via the highway so we wouldn't have to go all the way back to Gardiner to get her bags. My Dad, of course, doesn't own a cell phone nor does he know how to use one. So I got on my phone called Town Pump knowing he would stop there for gas. I also knew he would go inside since he pays cash for gas. I told the gal on the phone, "My Dad will be coming in to pay for gas. He has glasses on and a Scheel's hat. Please tell him to wait for us. He has Moms' bags." So we ZOOM and I mean ZOOM to Livingston. No Dad at the Town Pump nor did he leave her bags there. So off we head to Gardiner. Maaika calls at Pray, about 20 minutes south of Livingston. She says, " THE BAGS HAVE BEEN SECURED. THE BAGS HAVE BEEN SECURED." We met her, got the bags and off we went. So we got to Helena about 9pm. We had a great time! It is always good to hang out with the Wilmas. It seems our outings get bigger & bigger. More kidos. More family. It is GREAT!! Then Keri & I headed to Gardiner after the race. So here are a few pictures from our wild adventure. 

This weekend we are off to camp & fish at Tongue River. I cannot wait! I am sure there will be some great pictures to post. Sounds like there might be about 30 people coming!

Randoms

Okay. So I haven't blogged lately but I thought I would write & say HI. So HI.

This weekend the Wilma's are going to Helena for Race for the Cure. I can't wait because we always have a great time, even if Ang & Jenn are not nice to the car following them. My Mom is coming for the first time this year. Maybe it will be a tradition for her to come now that she doesn't have the KBAR to tend to. Yes, the new owner did open last week so I can't wait to go there and see what he has done to the place.

Shane, TJ and I have been busy. We helped a friend brand 60 cows. We have been decorating and spring cleaning our house. Wow....putting 2 households together is such a chore but we are enjoying every minute of it! We are also planning a reception in Gardiner on June 13th. We are still deciding on a place to hold it but please if you can come, we would love to have you. We are going to BBQ a whole pig and just have a good ole time!

My Mom's talent

These are 3 of my Mom's paintings I had framed. I think they are beautiful! She doesn't thing she has talent. What is she thinking?

Branding

Just pictures of us branding. Well pictures of us during our breaks! We had a blast!

Today is Odd Day 5/7/09

Math Buffs Celebrate Rare 5/7/09, Also Known As Odd Day

By Associated PressStaff Writer

8:20 PM CDT, May 6, 2009

Prepare to be awed by Odd Day. For the mathematically challenged, Thursday's date, 5/7/09, is one of only six this century that will feature three consecutive odd numbers.

Numbers lovers say the rare occurrence is an excuse to celebrate.

"The previous stretch of six dates like this started with 1/3/1905 — 13 months after the Wright Brothers' flight," said Ron Gordon, the Redwood City teacher who enthusiastically promotes these numerical holidays, like Square Root Day on 3/3/09.

Gordon is offering a prize of $579 to those who celebrate the date with the most zeal or who get the most people involved in an Odd Celebration.
