Update in Anne's Face
Okay, so I finally retreived the camera from my car and downloaded the pictures so I could have a worthwhile blog.
We had a wonderful weekend at Fairmont Hotsprings two weeks ago (wow! it has been a while!) we got to spend half a day at Discovery skiing in wonderful conditions, blue sky, fresh snow, good beer :) and a lot of time in the hot springs. lucky for me i get to go back again this weekend. though, no skiing this time, just a road race and hotsprings.
Also, I have found out that I am going to Washington DC for work at the beginning of May, so Nick and I are turning it into a mini-vacation as well. We will be spending two days in Boston and two days in New York City. I am super psyched especially because we got Red Sox tickets for while we are in Boston!

wednesday - hump day
this weekend is the winter western here in gillette...which basically equates to a weekend of rodeo. also, nick and i are competing in a couples race. it is a three mile (each) relay celebrating valentine's day. i am super excited, but also very nervous. luckily nick is quite a good runner, so his time will only help me...and since it's kind of my thing, nick won't mind me dragging him down :).
it has been a busy week for me, which is unusal. last night i had a mary kay party tomorrow a lia sophia party. tonight was supposed to be yoga, but sadly it was canceled which was really unfortunate as i could have used the relaxation!

SME fun
Usually weekends we spend around Gillette are less than stellar, but this weekend was a pretty good one. We went to see "He's Just Not That into You" with some friends Friday night. It was a good movie, but one that made you think at the same time.
Since we are getting close to finishing the basement (Nick put up some of the ceiling, now if Home Depot would just get our flooring and paint, we'd really be getting somewhere) we went and did a little furniture shopping this weekend. We are looking for the perfect sectional...I'm sure we'll know it when we see it :). We found some okay sectionals, but nothing great. I guess we'll have to go to Rapid City or try our luck ordering without actually sitting/laying on it first.
This weekend we also had the social event of the winter...the SME (Society of Mining Engineers)dinner dance. It is always a great time, with good friends, good food and free booze. We had a great time as always! Everyone always mocks when they hear we're going to a engineers event, making sure we have our pocket protectors ready, and all that, but the engineers we know, know how to hage a good time! Though some of the dance moves show just how much of an engineer some of them really are :)

My first post!
we are in the process of finishing our basement and my wonderful husband is down there painting right now. hopefully soon i will have photos. we should be getting our flooring sometime next week so maybe next weekend we will lay that. then it's on to trim and the ceiling. we are very excited for the day to come when we don't have to spend every weekend working on the house...okay, nick is excited for that, and i'm excited to be ably to have fun on weekends :)
it's a beautiful day so i may have to take the dogs to the park, expecially since the weather is supposed to turn again tomorrow.
and since my sister always says posts are better with pictures...here's my little remy all dressed up for christmas!
