Not exactly a speedracer

When I went to watch Creig race the other weekend little did I know that I would be racing around the track myself! I thought Creig's dad was joking around when he asked if I would be able to stick around afterwards to get out on the track but he wasn't! Creig helped me get suited up with a jacket, helmet (in silver, my favorite color!) and neck brace. Then after a little seat adjusting we were off! I couldn't believe how bumpy the ride was compared to how smooth it looks when your watching a race. And yes, I got passed by Creig and his dad twice, but that's ok, I figure I will leave the racing career up to Creig!

And they're off!

So I drove to Cokato, Minnesota today to a place called Stockholm Motorsports Park. I had no clue what to expect and was I surprised! Creig owns a race car and keeps it in a garage at the park. The thing is fast and there isn't even a seat belt! While one race is going on the racers for the next race would move their cars into place, get on their gear and the next thing you know they're off! Headed down the hill into formation around the first two turns past the green flag and the race would begin! Creig didn't take home a trophy today but he won something much better, 4 new tires! Humm...he races car number 4 and he won 4 new tires?? I think someone needs to buy a lottery ticket!

Introducing Lola

Lola had her 11 week old pictures taken! My girlfriend Christina, sproutsphotography.com, did a fabulous job and provided the perfect backdrop, Tiffany's boxes! Lola and I both love, love LOVE the pictures! Thanks again Christina!

Wall Art

I was surfing on the net and came across the most fabulous wall art for my guest bedroom and guest bathroom! I am absolutely in LOVE with these black chandeliers. I found them on www.whatisblik.com and they were so easy to put up! If you get the chance check out their site...I could see a lot of their wall art on my walls in the furture!

Spinning, Twirling, Whirling!

Saturday night was Lauren and Hanna's Dance Recital. They were the stars of the stage! Lauren was in two performances which required a costume change, "Tomorrow" and "Sea Cruise", and Hannah's "Me and My Teddy Bear" dance was just adorable! Congratulations girls! You did such a wonderful job!
