Just for laughs

This post is dedicated to a specific good friend of mine.  Here it is; hardcore proof of my past dorkiness for his amusement.  This is a photo of myself, and my sister in our teenage years in the early '90's.  Yes, like I noted, it is a scary site; check out that big hair!  Ha, and note the glasses.  Those are the big pink ones that I told him the story about yesterday afternoon, that my cousin had to borrow.  So yes, proof to him; I wasn't kidding when I said I was a dork!  Ha!

So, maybe my dorkiness has tamed down quite a bit over the last 18 years....at least on the outside.  :)

Capture the Memories!

I. AM. BACK!!  I've been away for a while, and had forgotten about this page!  Amnesia; it's the strangest thing!  Ha! Reflecting back to some of my fondest years, I've captured the memories with a few classic photographs from email archives.  Until I can get up and running again with captured moments of the present ( and there have been some great ones in the new 2011! ), please enjoy my classics I've collected below.  Thanks and see you all soon!  :)


 Laura and I pose happily with the Mr. Jack Daniels statue at the Jack Daniels distillery in Lynchburg, TN.
 Yes.  I am at THE Jack Daniels distillery.  And yes, there is a full bottle of Jack in my hand.  Woot!
 A statue in front of the Parthanon in Nashville, Tennessee.
 Another booze-related destination point in Tennessee; Arrington Vineyards.  A winery that originated from Brooks and Dunn.  :)
 Ah, quenching our thirst in the hot July weather at Carlos State Park.  One of the great many camping trips with my sister and Andy, her former boyfriend.
 Andy and I at Carlos State Park... my "brother", who burned my face that year while sitting around the campfire. 
A night of bowling with the Dykema posse... me, my nephew Sebastian, and my sis, Laura. 

Our friend Gao, Laura, and I. Dancing the night away with robot and jack knife moves at our friends Michon & Mike's wedding reception.
