New Years Weekend: Palm Springs

So... Updating my blog has been on my to do list for about a month now. I couldn't bring myself to put it on this weeks list again so here I am for just a quick little update on our new years extravaganza.

I didn't take that many pictures. I am going to work on that.

This year we brought in the new year out in Palm Springs. We rented this awesome house and after eating dinner in down town PS 20 of us spent the night playing "just dance", playing cards, playing hide and go seek in the dark, lets just say there was a lot of playing going on... There was also hot tubing, pizookie making, and conversationalizing (i know thats not a word but it just felt right).

Here are a few shots of the evening.









The next day we started the new years off right with a pancake breakfast made from pancake mix in a can.  They were surprisingly not half bad.  The day was spent playing tennis, hiking, walking, watching football, eating date shakes, playing more just dance and rock band, BBQing, hot tubing, and just having a merry ole time.  



It was a blast. 
I have a good feeling about this whole 2011 thing.

Someday...

- I will go to bed at a decent time.
- I will learn to keep my room neat and tidy.
- I will have a plant that I keep alive-maybe even a whole garden.
- I will graduate from grad school.
- I will actually train for a triathlon instead of doing them cold turkey.
- I will think about possibly running a marathon.
- I will fix up the fix it bike that I got for 15 dollars that is sitting in my garage.
- I will fit into my skinny jeans again.
- I will read 50 books in a year. 
- I will make a quilt.


Maybe that someday will be in 2011. Maybe not.
But I am sure going to give it a try.

Heart Breakers

I haven't had my heart broken in a while but I still loved this:  

 I'm going to keep that in mind for the next time. 
"In everything give thanks"
