Ski Beach

Mark and I went with the youth group kids to Ski Beach on Tuesday night. There were a couple of ski boats and wave runners, food, volleyball and lawn bowling. Mark and I battled it out on the volleyball court and are happy to say that the leaders beat the kids in the last game...whew! The best part about that was when someone asked me what side I was playing on! 30 year old women LOVE to be asked that :)

Mark forgot to bring a sweatshirt, so here he is trying to stay warm with a towel.


BTW...did you know they sell Snickerdoodles at Costco now? I believe Mark had two at the beach. They are pretty tasty, but still don't compare to his mom's homemade Snickerdoodles. :)

Pacific Crest Trail



Mark and I were invited to hike with a woman from church up in Big Bear. She has a goal to hike all 2650 miles of the Pacific Crest Trail which extends from Mexico to Canada crossing 3 US states. We did a 15 mile leg with her on Saturday. [Actually, only I did the hike with her. We got all the way up there and then Mark realized he left his hiking boots at home. Luckily one of the other husbands was able to entertain him in Big Bear for the day, so it wasn't an entirely wasted trip for him.]

So, the hike ended up being me and these 3 ladies. It was pretty fun and I would definitely do it again. Eventhough I am so sore today!!

I'm a Target-Addict Addict

I just found this new (to me) blog and I love it! Its called Target Addict. She writes about great finds, rants about annoying Targetisms and allows me to shop vicariously through her Target experiences. Give it a whirl for yourself.


P.S. The Target mascot's name is Bullseye. You all know how much Mark is opposed to our pets wearing costumes, but maybe he'd let me paint Pige white with a red bullseye for Halloween this year?
