Jumped on the bikes with b Tuesday night, trying to get a little of the B.o.B concert goodness at the whitecaps. Heard one song we knew, artist unknown and didn’t wait around for B.o.B. Instead headed back to Arlington and spent the next 2hrs being silly and making a fb album!

i [heart] meijers

as i stood in the line today at wal-mart reading on entire in touch magazine, while hearing many screaming kids around me. i thought to myself is this really worth saving the extra buck?? I am all about saving. spaving even! BUT why would i expect them to have more than four check lanes open. It only appeared like they were giving things away there were some many people with so much stuff! But i was patient enough and thought yes this was a good decision until i got home and checked my box of cereal that i thought was an AWESOME deal and realized i saved three cents. cheers to MONDAY!! :)

miles. miles. miles

0 miles to the Arlington home for birthday celebration of allyson and kim. It was a beautiful night to eat out on the deck. Menu: grilled pizza, salad, and cake balls!


46 miles out to Holland. To grill and boat ride with miss Raquel strik! [and others] again a beautiful summer night.


1.5 miles to the corner of Monroe and knapp. This was the spot of my trip. Right to the ground. phone in the road. Two scraped knees, mini scrape on the arm, little bruised on the hip and ego. What to do but finish out the 12.5! Ouch! [ps see the dirt. the ground is dirty!]


0.02 the location of my back door to my lounge chair. The place I sat for the rest of my Saturday! sun and reading. and maybe a few errands to target and dicks. oh and watched the movie remember me. i liked, its a good rent.

41 miles out to grand haven. For baptism of Jackson Lipinski. Great time out there with the family. Just beautiful sitting out on a chair watching people play in the water. Love love love it! Great company and food. Nice way to enjoy a Sunday!

Needed a battery recharge day and that is what was done. Walk, deck, nap. Then a this and that type of deal at the house…the house had not been attended to in a while and the piles had grown [clothes, bill, dirt!]….couldn’t remember the last time the sheets were changed. Gross. Couldn’t remember the last time the house was vacuumed. Gross. Laundry, kitchen, bathroom. All taken care of, just in time for another week of fun!

Heyo to a fun weekend with the bogo.
Bogo night number uno: Friday night started with a paparazzi deal and the way to the Winchester. Filming of the movie ’30 minutes or less’ at dinner we decided that the Winchester is made up of a very wide variety of people to people watch. Who did we see besides some cougars and awkward eye contact. JOEY from work! What a hoot…his mission was to find us a man. Unsuccessful. Who else did we see…two blast from the past from high school. After din din we head over to reeds lake for movie in the park. We picked up some ice cream on the way and found Lindsay to enjoy the movie with.




Bogo day/night number dos: Saturday picked b up at 11 hit the speedway for the 44oz and roadtripped it out to her cottage. Then it was bike time. Oh wait then it was hit the convince store for air….and that was fun! Then it was biking down to Holland state park beach [which do you have to pay to bike in…who knows but if you just act like you know what you are doing. No one questions you!] we enjoyed the beach for a while. And then headed out to captain Sundea! Sooo good! Biked back to the cottage. Round trip about 25 miles! Success! Back in gr…we hit up drive way bonfire! Smores….yummm! Lindsay partook in the giant marshmallow smore delicious creation!!
