Woot! Woot! For Vacations That Is...

Been here in Pittsburgh for a couple of days. The flights were good and Fritz did an awesome job on the long day journey. Will be here until next week with plenty of fun things planned. But soon to come will be something on my "Bucket List". Visiting Frank Lloyd Wright's masterpiece "Falling Waters". It has been a very long time dream of mine to visit here but I never realized it was only a little over an hour away from my sisters house!
=========
But first, I have to get through next Friday... turning 30. Ugh.

Sundays with Fritz-The Case of the "Na, Na, Boo, Boo"

This is my happy face. Happy because I'm going on vacation this week and you're not! Well, ok, I don't know if you are or not, just had to put it out there! I will be gone for a couple of weeks but I know I will have some great pictures to share when I get back!

Sundays with Fritz-The Case of My Crazy Mom

Let me tell ya folks, my Mommy has become CRAZY the past two days. She keeps yelling at the TV a lot and jumping up and down. Especially on last Saturday night when she said something about watching her "boyfriend" Apolo on the tube. I'm not too sure what Daddy thinks about that!

---------

Enjoy the Vancouver 2010 Olympics everybody!

Fritz.... signing off.

I Am A Freak.... Seriously

About the Winter Olympics! I am crazy, freaky, and just plain nuts when the games are on. Glued to the Tube, lets say. Especially when my boyfriend Apollo Anton Ohno is skating. Although, he is in denial about our relationship. Hmm... only because it is a one sided relationship. ;) But luckily enough, now I can drool tomorrow when I can see him win more medals.
-----------
When I was a little girl, watching the pretty girls in figure skating, they completely inspired me. I never thought I would go the skating route, as anybody who has been unlucky enough to see me skate knows I should never go near ice skates, but seeing the athletes in any sport and their dedication is truly amazing.
-----------
Good luck to all the athletes that are in Vancouver !

Woot! Woot! Vacation is Coming Soon!

Soon, Fritz and I will be off for a two week vacation to visit my sister and her family in Pittsburgh, PA. My 30th birthday is coming up in a couple of weeks, so my very wonderful, kind parents bought me a plane ticket for the journey. They will be coming with me as well, but will have a separate adventure for a few days in Virginia.
----------
It will be such a great time to catch up with my sister and to see how big my little nephew has gotten! Fritz is mostly excited that he will be able to play with my sisters step son as they are pretty close to the same age. The last time that the step son was here in MT, Fritz wasn't even born yet!
----------
And of course... my sister has BIG plans for the night of my 30th. Can we say bar time??

Sundays with Fritz-The Case of the Tasty Snow

What's this white stuff I got here in my hand??

I think I need to give it a taste just to make sure it's something fun to play with.

Ooooh burr! Whatever it is, it sure is cold!

Fritz... signing off. Have a nice day!

Just One Night

I stepped outside to breathe in some fresh winter air one evening last week, and was stopped short by the reflections surrounding me. Thousand upon thousands of tiny glittery diamonds were shouting at me leaving me completely mesmerized.
----------
Under the watchful moon, the snow dazzled with its simplicity in the full light of darkness. For those brief few moments, a calm peace surrounded me to know that beauty is still out there. It's just waiting for us to seek it out...

Sundays with Fritz...

I'm baaaackkkk!!!!!!! Hope you all have a great week!

xoxo

Fritz

Seriously...

Caldwell person ---- if this is not who I think it is I apologize, but I must do a bit of a rant now if it is.

If this is a particular person from my past, stop looking at my blog all the frickin' time. It's been six years dude... get over it.

Once again....

I'm hoping that with a little bit more time, the normal life will begin again... seems like I am at this post again.

Big questions in life.... on how to make my future right for me, not just my son, but me.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

P.S. Who is the Caldwell person? Leave a comment with your name, although I think I know who you are.

Happy Holidays To All

Getting Ready

This Christmas will be much different from last year. As the picture above shows, my little wee one was a teeny tiny babe at this time last year. Things were more quiet. A few coos here and there, smiles and attempts to roll over...

Now? Santa is a scaaaary man, and Fritz wants nothing to do with him. The tree seems to be missing ornaments occasionally throughout the day. Presents are safely stored in a closet until Christmas morning. And I'm sure the wrapping paper will be in many more pieces than last years.

But yes, I am excited for next Friday. Because I'm sure that next Christmas will be quiet again, right??

The Followers

I go downstairs, they come downstairs. I go back upstairs, they come back upstairs. Off to bed for a nap, snuggle, snuggle, snuggle. Living room couch for some reading, yep you guessed it. Especially Melba (pictured in the middle) she's the worst one of the bunch!

Of The Early Morning Dawn

Fritzy woke me up early one morning. I guess he got too much good sleep and decided it was time for play. Fuzzy darkness was still creeping around my bedroom, but one peek out the back porch window and my breath caught. Luckily for me this is quite unusual to have my son wake so early, and it has been quite some time for me to catch the morning light peeking slowly out. The shades of pink and later, orange, filled the entire sky. Usually it's the sunset that Fritz and I will see, but on this day it was extra special to break our fast at peaceful misty colors.
