Ultimate Frisbee through pics…

Here’s how I look most of the time.  The confused-look is typically plastered on my face…

e

Another Example… (Is it me, or do I look like a giant compared to the girl that’s guarding me?)

 c

I spend most of my time doing this… (Notice where the frisbee is!)

b

And this…

f

Sometimes I get lucky and look like this…

i

h

j

Then that makes me happy like this…

k

Then we do this… (I’m not the ‘go for the butt’ type of a gal–this type of hi-five suffices. 🙂

 AND sometimes, when I’m extremely luckly, I get fans, like this (some of my favorite people in the world)…

Happy Weekend!!!

the Bat’s ballgame

July 2, 2007 by Maren 7 Comments

Went to an Louisville Bats Game with some friends…

We had a great time.  Michael and I sang for a $10,000 Oreo Jingle Contest, and received two free t-shirts for participating.  The friends we met at the park came early and got 3 bobble heads.  One of the players on the opposing team threw a ball to us.  And between all of us, we caught 2 more promotional t-shirts!  That’s 8 free things at the ball park!  Score–I never get free things like that!  Maybe we’ll win the contest, too!

That’s all, folks.  Happy Monday.  (why did I feel like the above was a math word problem?!?!?! lol.)

A walk in the woods

June 25, 2007 by Maren 11 Comments

Michael and I took a walk on Sunday afternoon at a Forest in our area.  BEAUTIFUL!  It’s so fun to stop and enjoy the peaceful creation– Michael could testify, though, that nothing quite interrupts this serenity like my intermittant hysterical screams of being chased by horseflies.  (There are some creatures in this world that we must agree to disagree about their purpose in life, and horseflies are one of these types of creatures.)  These pictures remind me of the last verse of Psalm (150:6) that says, “Let everything that has breath praise the Lord. Praise the Lord.”

 

GRRRR… I can’t figure out how to lay out pictures on Xanga and make it look nice.  Whenever I try, it looks like a jumbled mess, so I have to go to the slideshow or spend way too much time.  Any ideas? And is there any way to preview a post before posting?  I always hit “save changes” then realize I’ve posted the thing… GRRR…

Also, on a different and random note, on Saturday, someone/something completely dug up a newly planted flower and placed it on our sidewalk (about 2 feet from where it was originally planted).  It’s baffling to me and a little unnerving.  I keep racking my brain trying to figure it all out… I don’t think a kid would be smart enough to do something like that.  If it’s a joke, it’s a dumb joke.  If it’s a window peeper, why on earth would he want us to know he’s there?? I was thinking that maybe I ran over someone’s flowers or something without knowing it, and it was retaliation.  But you’d think I would know if I had done something like that… I’m just hoping it was an animal of sorts.  It’s just too odd for me to think about…

Happy Monday!

Back from Birmingham

June 5, 2007 by Maren 12 Comments

We’re back from a great time in Birmingham, AL.  The wedding was beautiful, and weather, the same.  We first made a stop at the Birmingham Botanical Gardens.

Amazing Man on the Mandolin… Sorry couldn’t resist–Man/Mandolin… A little Alliteration never hurt anyone.

Fun program for an outdoor wedding–A FAN!  Great idea!

The happy couple

Then afterwards…

9c

Had dinner with a close friend (Sarah) from high school.

9d

Checked out Vulcan Park, home of the largest cast iron statue in the world (conveniently located in Birmingham).

9e

Tried jumping in the fountain to make a fun gif (the moving type of picture), but each time I jumped in, the camera stalled…This was all I got… SHAME.

9f

And perhaps the longest semi I’ve ever seen.  Whatta you say?  I think Oscar Mayer has missed an advertising opportunity!

Happy Tuesday!
