Bike Rally

Park City was the scene of a Harley Davidson bike rally today. Oh my gosh, cycles everywhere! They closed the northbound I-135 exits at 53rd and 61st streets, and we saw 100's of bikes! Poor Kaitlin had to work the rally. Leeker's had their concession stand set up to provide food for the bikers. They served hundreds of meals and she is a tired young lady tonight!

In between the bike rally, we did our normal Saturday running: Sam's, Walmart, Leeker's, a visit with mom, etc. I also went to my sister-in-law's Party Lite show tonight.

Now we're settling down for a movie. Brandon wants to watch Mr. Brooks with Kevin Costner. We'll see if his choice wins out.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY NIECE LENORE! She called me from Germany today to tell me she'd won another contest and was getting 5 free books. She wanted to know if I'd like her to have them sent to me so I could read them first! Isn't that nice? She'll be home the first part of July - after spending the 4th in Washington, DC with some friends - so she can get the books from me then. We are looking forward to her visit.

Today's quote: "Feelings of worth can flourish only in an atmosphere where individual differences are appreciated, mistakes are tolerated, communication is open and rules are flexible - the kind of atmosphere that is found in a nurturing family." -- Virginia Satir

Fun times with Lenore

While Lenore and Daniel were here, she had a library book panel at the Johnson County Library in Overland Park. So, on Tuesday afternoon, November 27th, Lenore, her friend Rachelle and I took off for KC. We had a great time visiting on the way up and back, and I didn't get tired at all driving! We stopped for a quick bite to eat at Arby's and filled up with gas at QT before heading to the library. It was an interesting panel featuring Bethany Hagen, author of Landry Park, which comes out next year; Gennifer Albin, author of Crewel, which was released a few months ago; and Lenore, whose book will be released on January 15. Here's the panel: Me & Lenore: Lenore & Rachelle: Gennifer, Bethany and Lenore

K-STATE WINS!

K-STATE beat KU! AWESOME! It was a tense game. Corby is a huge KU fan, and even having a son at K-State hasn't changed that. I am happy when any Kansas team does well; but I had to root for K-State tonight. If the Jayhawks had to lose, I'm glad it was to K-State. Michael Beasley is a great player, and my only concern is that he will leave after his freshman year and go pro. WAY TO GO CATS!
