The Cincy Adventure

Sunday was quite the day! We drove up to Cincinnati and spent the day exploring...first by petting sharks at the Newport Aquarium and then peering at every vein, artery, and vital organ in the body at the Body Exibition. Here are our best shots.

Cincinnati is such a pretty city! We wished we had more time to stay and play. There seemed to be a lot of fun things to do!
We got to see Nemo!

Just chillin at the Bayou...can you see the American Alligator?

The scary sharks...



And the not-so-scary sharks...


The cute penguins

M.I.C...K.E.Y...MOUSE...

So it's been awhile since the last post...I have a pretty boring life with nothing to show for it. My bad. This last weekend was spent with my babysitter Celeste. Some definite good times were had scouting out a new read, eating, Wii-ing, and puzzle-ing. Celeste was in search of a new puzzle to pass the time and I insisted in this Mickey Mouse one. Bad choice on my part...I mean it's been fun peering at nearly all-black minute-sized photos for hours on end and not finding the one piece you are in need of. Fun, I swear it. It has helped pass many hours, approximately 10 of them, which is exactly its purpose. This is as far as we've gotten. Wish us luck.

The Blackberry Bold

So a few months ago my very favorite phone ever purchased DIED...It was a very sad day. Somehow it acquired some water damage and the screen goes all skee-wumpis whenever you try to do anything. So my very kind and favorite brother-in-law has been letting me use his old SLVR. Motorola is not my favorite but it has definitely been a lifesaver so I wouldn't have to purchase a new phone yet. My next upgrade isn't until September 10 (don't worry I've been counting down the days). I look at all the new phones almost daily and stop in the AT&T stores close by when I have a free minute to see what they have and to maybe play with their iPhones for a bit. I finally found one I think I'm in love with. It hasn't been released yet but I'm hoping this will be my September purchase.

Fireflies!!

I had never seen a firefly before I moved out to Kentucky. I never knew how deprived of a life I was living. They are beautiful! There are so many trees and so many fireflies it's almost like they are lit like Christmas trees. Well last night we were walking up to the apartment after a Tuesday dinner at BW's and there was a little firefly on the wall. I must say that for how pretty their little bums are, they are not very attractive little bugs but I still thought it was cool to see it light up. Here's a little video I caught of the insect. You kind of have to watch closely...
