About Me

I'm not really a superstar, except maybe to my husband, who I happen to be deeply in love with. My life: following Jesus, learning to live and love like Him. He is in the driver's seat, and I am on an adventure.

10 minute threshold



I just realized that I have about a 10 minute threshold for tolerating technological difficulties. Beyond 10 minutes, I throw my hands up and give up entirely on whatever I am trying to do. I just lack the problem solving skills in the technical arena.
I was attempting to throw a couple of photos on here of our FUN night on the town last night. But, for some reason, I can't get the photos to load. WHATEVER!
Let me just say, we had such a GREAT time. First we dropped the girls off and Grandma and Grandpa Carlson's, which was cool because they haven't stayed overnight with them in a long time and they were excited to do that...and go to a birthday party for their cousin too! Unfortunately we had to miss our nephew's party.
But, we headed down to Detroit for Timm's staff Christmas party. Snacks and dinner provided. And a DJ spinning some tunes. It was nice to meet the people Timm works with every day. From there, we ventured downtown to the Milner Hotel. We checked in, then promptly grabbed a cab and headed to the Motor City Casino to meet up with our friends the Bermans to celebrate Jim's birthday. They had a suite at the casino, which was just that....SWEET! We had a great time dancing, visiting, and even winning some money! Timm and Jim played some slots and split some winnings. We were able to do everything from dinner, drinks, hotel stay, cab, breakfast today, and we still ended up $25 ahead! That is factoring in the gift card Timm got from his work. So, of course, that made the evening all the more fun for me. Oh, I think I just figured out the pics. What would I do without my husband????
Did I mention we were out until 3:30am? Ugh. I'm tired.

That nephew comment was just for me, how funny! Like there was really any comparing a ten year old's "family" party: grown up fun time in D town. You are a sweet heart. How cool on the $$ for the weekend, but if you then figure in Andrew's gift you most likely break even.
