When I was in Boise I went shopping with Joelle and she got some plaid Bermuda shorts! wow. I know you all know that back in the day I wore plaid bermuda shorts- like all the time- with polo shirts of course. So once she got her's and a polo shirt I was thinking to myself now if only topsiders were around life would be perfect. I guess thinking back to 1984-87 had me longing for my own pair of bermudas and some topsiders. So on the 4th I went to Macys and found them! I was so gosh darn excited. I wore them to the BBQ and was asked by more than one person where I found them. Maybe they will get holey a rot off my feet like my old ones... LOL So I got this outfit but my shirt has sleeves and I wore it with my new topsiders. I even called mom to tell her I found them. I am getting so old that the things I grew up with are coming back. Wait till I find an espirt bag.....  Ok I don't know if anyone besides Tiff will understand this one.

So yesterday we saw Get Smart- too funny. It was just the girls. Jo, Dani, Sarah, Suzie and I. It was really good. I haven't laughed that hard in along time.  

My WWJE diet is going ok. Jackie do you think you could blog daily- you know just what you ate? I got myself a book to help keep me motivated. It is called Skinny Bitch and it is great. Such awesome advice as get off your fat ass and quit eating crap.  Such great little tidbits as Soda is liquid satan. Anyway I am hoping it combined with the WWJE the book will give me the verbal slap upside the head to keep me on track. If I could get a recording of Jackie saying Jen I didn't eat a brownie I would be in heaven.... lol  Today I am going to tiddy up a little and the Jo and I are going to bike to the gym. My game is at 8:20.... go underdogs.

It has been so long since I have blogged. It is not that I have been busy so much as I have been lazy. Boise was great and it was so fun to see everyone. It was great for everyone to see each other and for some family members to get to know Mitch better. 

Joelle's team took second place in the tournament. She played a lot- which surprised me since she had missed practice. She even started in the Sunday games. In the top photo you can see Joelle getting ready to stop the ball. Sh e has been working really hard with balls in the air. In the final championship game her team played against the timbers. It was her friend Sarah's team and also the team Hans coaches now. HB lost but it was a good game and a good thing they lost. Otherwise they would have had huge egos going into our other tournaments. last week Joelle had Sarah and Dani sleep over. The girls had a blast swimming in the pool and playing our new video game. Wii rockband. They got pretty good at it. I had to sing a couple of the songs for them- they kept failing on Creep by Radiohead and then I had to give Roxanne a try. I did get 100% on Roxanne- shocking. For the fourth of July we went to a BBQ at some friend and Jo stayed over at Dani and Sarah's. Mitch helped Tom tear out some carpet in their living room. Their 16 yr old cat has kidney failure. It is a pretty sad situation. Yesterday we saw the movie wanted. It was like a combination of Fight Club, Matrix and Office Space. Kinda odd. but Mitch and I liked it. Them we went to Tom and Suzy's for dinner and picked up Joelle.  Today I am doing laundry and catching up on stuff. Not much going on. Starting tomorrow Jo and I will be doing the gym thing- she is going to start with a trainer for speed classes.  Not much else going on. I hope everyone is doing well. 

We are trying to plan a trip up to the san juans. It looks like the weekend of the 25th would be best for us- Mitch has vacation.  So Megs would that work? I know it is super close to your birthday. I was thinking just the four day weekend. Jo has three tournaments in August, so we will be pretty busy when that hits.
