Out of SHAPE!!!

Driving down main street there is almost more traffic with the runners and bikers then there are cars!! Alpine is stuffed with fit little people trying to look their best in their new yellow polka-dot bikini! So naturally i thought i would jump on that! The work out videos do no justice when its sunny outside! This last tuesday i thought it would be nice to take a little jog outside, Harmless right? Wrong, i thought i was going to die! I got to the end of my driveway and my ipod dies, i should have known to stop right there....This running business is not my thing! Yet i decide to keep on, keepin on! So i get one block north and see the cemetery hill, I see people run up hills all the time and they look just fine! So i attempt it, and failed! I NOW realize you need to either walk up STEEP hills or at least work up to it. I was so tired after that i ended up walking around the creepy cemetery and jog/walk/look pathetic as i worked my way home! So today i planned on redeeming myself with biking instead of running! Which went a little better, but i think its only because on my way home it was all down hill and i just sat there and enjoyed the ride! You got to give me credit for trying right! Moral of the story is....i need to get my lazy butt out of the house more!! Plus get some sun on these stems of mine! I think people were blinded by my white legs! That's a whole other story! And now i want to go boating.... any takers?

Is this real life?

Watch this.....you will die!!

LUCK?

Luck LuckLuck...... Is a funny word!! One day you have it and the next day... its gone!!! All of it! So we are all aware of our flood, Well that is all cleared up and dandy! That was just an adventure in our eyes, everyone goes through it hopefully only once. Little did i know that was just the beginning of a real eye opener! So we went to AZ this past weekend with Tara and Wyatt! We have been planning this little get-a-way for a few weeks, it was kinda a nice break from school, work, pretty much life!! Tara was down there for work so Cory, Wyatt and i drove down wed night at 8. We drove all night ....well they did, no one wants me driving at night i don't have great depth perception at night, we wanted to get there in one piece! So we got there really early in the morning! We saw the sun set and rise! So we just played all day, i brought down my new NIKON D3000 (remember my baby?) so i could play around with it and learn how to really use it! Well that night as we were walking back to the hotel Cory and i decide to take up a bike ride offer of one of those guys riding around pulling people on a little two seater benches. It was only five dollars so we hoped on...Purse and all. We got close to the end of our ride..... keep in mind it was only about ten minutes long when i realize my purse is gone, (we think it fell off the back). It had my life in it, i know that's lame to say but really.... My new camera, My snap shot camera, New phone Cory got me for valentines day, My new pink ipod Cory had just gotten me to replace my last one that was stolen, planner, wallet, about 150 bucks and all of my cards, The keys to the car...and all these things were nicely placed in my Juicy bag i got for my birthday last year...not even one year old, it was just a baby! Once i realized it was gone we back tracked and called my phone, it was already turned off and my purse was no where to be found. That ...Blank-etty-blank person who stole my purse got well over 1000 dollars worth of crap that probably didn't even mean anything to them. The worst part about it, is knowing someone out there has my identity and could really do damage one day.

Word of advice....don't caring things worth any value in your purse! haha
But lets look on the bright side...we got a $10 ride for only $5!!! What a deal!

The rest of the trip was fine, it was just hard to be on vacation when you don't have any money!! The weather was AWESOME!!! 95 degrees ...who can complain! Great food and company! So moral of the story is...if you see someone with a Nikon D3000 camera and they are not truly appreciating its beauty and splendidness, let me know cuz it could be mine. That is the item i will miss the most!! We will just have to start from scratch and save up again! Hey second times a charm right? RIGHT?

Excuse the grammar or spelling....(Carly) Cory is not here to correct and i really don't want to fix it!!

We are going to be GREAT PARENTS one day!

So i really want to learn how to edit a photo....like a champ! I want to be able to pop a color with out screwing up the whole picture. Also i want to learn how to just sharpen the eyes so the eyes stand out.... I NEED HELP!!! Got any good tips?

New Employee

Hi My name is Roy. I have recently been hired by coryandkatie.blogspot.com as their new editor in chief... Apparently one of their few followers (we'll call her midge)... would like a professional error free blog... I was around when the uproar came about, so I volunteered. They hired me on the spot. I don't have much of a resume, no credentials, references, or experience, but I hope you'll enjoy my twist on things... I would like to dedicate this post to the aforementioned "Midge."

Dear Midge
Don't like how they spell on their blog Midge? Maybe I'll misspell stuff on your tall fridge...
Those magnetic letters get you all uptight Cuz misspelin' stuf doesn't make you feal write.
Does that make you cringe, seein' those letters mixed up? Does your hair start to singe, cause your face is burnin' up?
Are your fists in the air, cursin' me for writin' this? If so... I gotta say... mission accomplished.

Well that's my post, life is going good back at the ranch. Katie is feelin' good about her new employee (I just showed her my draft of this post). I hope I get a raise.
Roy-out

The Flood!

Pictures say a thousand words.....

Cory and i were planning on coming home for lunch around 1:30 on Friday the 9th......So around that time Cory calls wondering if i could come pick him up and said that i needed to hurry. I was thinking he was sick or something so i hurried over there and he looked and acted fine!! As i got to the four way stop right by our house Cory turns to me and asks...."are you ready for an adventure?" So here i am thinking he is going to make something really good for lunch....and as we turn on to our street he breaks it to me that our house is flooding!!! He was so calm i didn't really believe him! But sure enough the renter above us was running around outside our house trying to figure out where the water was generating from. He had called Cory at work to inform him that our walk out basement was half way full of water and he didn't know where it was coming from! So as i walk in to our house the only damage i could really tell was that the whole kitchen was underwater and running into the laundry room. But as I walked into the cold storage there was water coming down the walls! We shut off the outside water but the water was still pouring in our house because it was coming mainly from the front door where the water was a foot above the base. Surprise Surprise our sprinkler system was not winterized properly and the pipe was SHATTERED in more then one spot! Oh the joys of being a home owner!!! Within minutes we had both of our parents and wyatt helping us get the water out! We caught it in time so nothing was really ruined! We ripped up the carpets that day just got that back down, we now are just waiting for one more spot to dry out and then we can get our kitchen floor fixed!!!! It really has been a adventure!!!
