Here's my birthday balloon from my study mates at work: Andria, Jessica, and Andrea.

The other part of my birthday present.....it is a silly story!

A birthday gift for me from Kristin and Sierra! They also took me to the Brew Pub for dinner, just us girls!

Haha, good times with Margo!

Memories of me and Margo in 1977?

I'm going to see Margo in a few days so was looking for some old college photos. I took a quick pic of this one to send to her, must have been the year after she graduated.

Simple toys are the best!

Another happy day at the Siebenlist animal shelter!

Sagan playing.....

I crashed on my road bike on the way home from work. It was on a wet, freshly paved piece of asphalt. These bruises showed up although I didn't get hurt too bad.

Marian University wins again!

I love watching Collegiate National Championships even though no one in the family is still in college! I'm glad they were in Indianapolis again this year.

I've always been a bicyclist but now that I ride in the city to and from work, this fits.....

I think this is very funny!

Sagan and Cadel gave one Kristin and Sierra each one of these mugs!

The earliest I've ever seen this in the stores, crazy!

Guess I'm buying a new lawn mower...

Here's the great group of ladies that I raced with this weekend. Lisa, Mary, Kittie, Carrie, Jackie, and Maggie. I hope to see them again soon!

The second day of Bluegrass Nationals brought me another 1st place with my precious friend Maggie right behind me! I am thankful for all the wonderful friends I saw this weekend who offered me encouragement and kind words for the future. I hope everyone has a great day of racing tomorrow, I'll be at home studying!

Today was my first BMX race in a year! It was great to see wonderful friends from all over the country. Special thanks for my result to Marian Cycling and the Power Booster class I just finished yesterday!

Fun weekend ahead!! I am excited about racing this weekend!

Finally watched this movie since it was out at Red Box, it was great! Of course, I liked the book better...

I love this painting that I found today at TJ Maxx!

Unfortunately, Einstein Bros is conveniently located in our new building at work. We usually choose one day a week to have a bagel!

Sure, help yourself.........but could you clean up your mess? You also dropped some on the ground. What? Oh sorry, you don't like the skin........me neither!

Cody woke up to a broken window this morning. The thieves probably thought they were going to get some electronic equipment when they stole his bag. Thanks goodness they left his bike!

Quite a fascinating machine, this stump grinder... Two of the neighbors got him to grind out their old tree stumps while he was here! He was a happy guy, got more business and didn't have to drive anywhere.

Kristin is going to the Gala Celebration for the opening of the Neuroscience Building at IU Health.

Finally, that pesky tree gone - what a difference! Next project - windows!

Andrea taking a little lunch time nap before we head off for our clinical rotation today!

Kristin couldn't make it to Power Booster class today, so I took a pic of the workout for her!

The kittens are growing so fast! Sagan is enjoying one of their toys.

Sierra won the Fountain Square Criterium today! I had the time to ride down to the race and back, wonderful! Sierra and I had lunch together at the Mexican cafe after her race.

Another win for Sierra on Fast Friday at MTV!

Who does this new toy belong to? I thought it was a kitten toy...

Another rough day for Cadel here at the Siebenlist shelter!

What is there to say about this photo of Sagan? hmmmm, rag doll cat?

I was always asking Matt the Wrench if I could stand near his tent to take photos, so he made me this press pass!

Here's Kristin winning a prime yesterday at the Mass Ave Crit, she got a 5th place finish!

Sierra won the Mass Ave Crit today!

We moved into the new building today!

Sierra and friends photo shoot for the cover of Nuvo Magazine with an article about women's cycling.

I went to help at the West Hospital today and saw this beautiful cloud forming as I left for home.

Mother sent me this photo, Jeanice and Brenda were visiting for a week from South Carolina.

Another beautiful sunset on Lake Kahola, sent to me by Kahola Joyce herself!

Women Indiana State Road Race Champions...

For some reason, Cadel likes to sleep behind the blinds...

Fast Friday at MTV!

Guess who benefited from my $$ certificates from TJX rewards?

Forgot I had these, looks like I will need to go shopping!
