One Year Down 17 to go....

Miss K's party was a huge success. I guess the weather could have been a bit better but other than that the turnout was great. I have to remind myself I can't believe a year has gone by so fast. Within the past few days she has already started attempting to take her first few steps and tried standingup on her own. Each day she begins to be more confident.

It is all too often that we forget how short life can be sometimes. We get caught up in our daily activities our daily schedules are Monday through Friday jobs. We forget about those who struggle. Forget about those who are dealing with emotional struggles. We forget about those who are dealing with things bigger than any of us could ever understand. Getting through the first your life is a miracle which is a time to be celebrated which is why the first birthday is so special. So I take this opportunity to thank those who took time out of their busy lives and their busy schedules to spend some time with our family and our special daughter on her special day.  We hope you'll get to spend many more special birthdays with us.

True Happiness

If I actually had real followers on here I might get some feedback on what truly makes you happy? Think about it......how many people can honestly say they are TRULY happy. And if you say, "Yes" I want to know your secret. Everyone has a bad day or two or a shitty situation that they wished they hadn't had to go through. But I do believe there are really, actual happy people out there, And I used to be one of them, Or maybe I was just young and naive at the time as well. The paths we take, the experiences we make, and the people we meet will all contribute to happiness. But I also think that there are too many people out there who aren't happy but aren't willing to take the steps to find out what it is that is making them unhappy and then make the change. For my instance, I have been jumping from job to job thinking that I was missing out on utilizing my creativity that I love so much.  I didn't like the daily task of data entry and poor work environment...

How's My Wave?

As I was driving back from Minneapolis after picking up friends from the airport at 6AM, I was trying to stay awake and read the billboards as I was making the treck up to wonderful Moorhead Minnesota. There really isn't anything amazing to look at besides words on signs after Fergus Falls. However, as I neared Barnsville, and noting (only 30 more miles) a sign on the left side of the I-94 caught my attention. There was Cenex sign, with a 3-D Cenex man waving at those passing by with a speech bubble " How's my waving?" And then a number followed 1-877-CHAT. Now, I have no idea what the purpose of this billboard is. I have been contemplating this for the entire weekend. Is it brand recognition? A friendly hello? The billboard itself isn't selling anything, but it does catch the drivers eye. Whoever designed this billboard was creative, but I'm still confused as to what the object of this billboard is. Do they really want people to call and 'chat...
