got my new ipod today.

finally!

it was supposed to come last friday and it got lost and ...long story. but it's here finally so once it's done syncing i can use it!!

early christmas present from tony.
he got it for me because my old radio didn't let you play an ipod through it. :)

hans.

this was at his going away party. :(

we are gonna miss him.

but he has been a terrific friend to me for the past five years i've known him, and to tony for even longer.

safe travels to hans!

i am grateful for my marriage.

although some times it is trying
and things get rough
we love each other a ridiculous amount
and i couldn't ask for anything more.

today i am grateful for all of this amazing food!
(it was delicious!)

i know that it is thanksgiving and you are supposed to say what you are thankful/grateful for.
but i think it is something that everyone should incorporate into their lives on a daily basis.

it's just like valentines day...
why would you show someone love on one day just because it's a "holiday"?
show love everyday!

and show gratitude everyday as well!

i hope everyone had an amazing day!

oh home.

home sweet home.

i am so lucky to have you.

why yes, yes it is.
thanks for the reminder. :)

my new winter jacket.
(it's getting chilly out!)

the biker handshake!

being a fellow biker
*ahem* scooter rider
i appreciate the acknowledgment and solidarity you get from a simple wave.

this is the biggest cauliflower i have ever seen!
michigan grown, 2 for $5!
yum.
