Happy Sunday everyone!

This morning I had to skip church in order to work ... so its 11 am and I have nothing to really do... SO you will get to hear about my somewhat interesting life....

This week has been busy... with work and other stuff... but it was good. This weekend was really fun ! Alex and I took his parents out to a really good steak house about 30 mins from Sioux Center. That was a good time. Then Sat. I went with some firemen and one of their wives to a firefighter water challenge about an hour away. It was fun to be in the sun and cheer Alex and the rest of the Sioux Center firefighters on. However, there was one instance in the final rounds that Alex won ( believe me.. i was right up there yelling to cheer him on ;) ) and they called it a tie and a re-do and the other team ended up winning... which made me really mad. I let it known that they made a bad call... but of course did not work :) But what amazed me was that Alex knew that he really won... but he did not make a big fuss out of it after it was called and done for. I asked him why he did not later and he said something that he would be seen for his good game than being a sore loser.... or something like that. it was really respectable that he did not make a big fuss out of something that really could not be changed.

Anyways.. my bed is calling.. hope everyone had a good weekend.. enjoy the sweet pictures!


Yea... that's Alex and I
Alex and the new firefighter he is training... he did really well for his first water fights!
This is a really neat picture :)
So this is how it works.... There are 3 people on a team.. ( you cant see the 3rd in the pic) but the first guy aims the hose at the barrel and the guy behind him helps carry the hose ( which I think is really heavy) and the 3rd guy in the back helps prevent the hose from kinking and helps make it easier to move forward.. or backward. Then the first team to the the barrel on the other side wins.
You just gotta think a guy in uniform is good looking ;)
