Day 212: 5/22/2011
I've been so blessed with such a beautiful baby sister.
Today we celebrated all of her accomplishments 
and the many many more that lie ahead of her. 

Day 211: 5/21/2011 Evening
 My first U2 Concert. Pretty amazing. 
Although, I am glad I was not squished with thousands of other people
in front of the stage for hours like Jeff was. 

 Day 211: 5/21/2011 Afternoon
Catherine is a Registered Nurse!!!
Not only did I get to congratulate Cath, I took time to
realize how amazing it is that I have 3 women who
NO MATTER WHAT, 
will always be a part of my life. 
They give new meaning to the phrase "friends forever".  
P.S. Bobby- Thanks for the great picture. 
You truly captured the moment!


Day 210: 5/20/2011
The above sign reads
 "STADIUM CONCERT SATURDAY - PLAN AHEAD"
Well, we all know Jeff planned ahead.
Not only was he in line at 6:30AM for the show, but the night before 
we scoped out the scene at Invesco Field
and even got a free preview of U2 rehearsing.
This was our first U2 experience together- 
and it might be the only one, since I'm not sure G.A. is for me...

Day 209: 5/19/2011
Jeff loves his brownies.
He can often be found "baking" this favorite late at night,
but he always makes sure to leave me some batter.

Day 208: 5/18/2011
For some reason, our tree is the only one 
in the neighborhood that hasn't bloomed yet. 
I'm starting to get impatient! 

Day 207: 5/17/2011
Miss Susan Marie Strait, 
Honors Graduate of Arapahoe High School Class of 2011. 
Now onto Trinity Western in Vancouver, BC!

Day 206: 5/16/2011
Dinner Jeff, really?
I'm not sure if you should count on me 
making this for you anytime soon.

Day 205: 5/15/2011
Jeff ran his 6.2 miles in just under 50 minutes today 
at the Colfax Team Marathon.
I was so proud!

Day 204: 5/14/2011
Turning 25 feels more like turning into a "real adult".
Not only am I half way to 50, but I'm married, out of school,
and starting to get wrinkles.

Day 203: 5/13/2011
Happy Birthday Eve.
Jeff surprised me with flowers and balloons at the office
and then took me out in Old Town, Fort Collins for dinner.

Day 202: 5/12/2011
It's funny how even though I only use one measuring utensil,
like the 1/2 cup or tablespoon, 
I always end up washing all of them just in case.

Day 201: 5/11/2011
This evening Jeff and I went to dinner with his 
Great Aunt Marilyn and Uncle Mike.  
Marilyn shared photographs from Estes Park in the early 1900's.
Her mother is in the picture above.
I found it so touching that she wanted to share her family history
with the new one in the family.
