Odin has won the random prize at Crossfire Digital. I'm not entirely sure what he's won, but I would guess that it's a gift certificate to Y.I.P's. Woo Hoo!

24 - 20 For The Steelers!

This past weekend was the football game that Jeremy and Anthony have been looking forward to since September (for Jeremy’s birthday, I bought him 2 tickets to see the Cleveland Browns play the Pittsburgh Steelers). The weekend started with Jeremy and Anthony having a contest to see who could keep their arm outside the car the longest.

When we arrived in Cleveland, we checked into our hotel and were pleasantly surprised by how nice it was. Here are a couple pictures.




In our hotel room there was a CD which had soothing sounds and it told us how to relax. There was also a small bag which contained ear plugs, eye mask, room spray, and a drape clip. The bathroom was huge and had the regular bottles of shampoo and conditioner, but it also had mouth wash, shower caps, and body lotion.

We made our way to the Hard Rock Café in Tower City for dinner. The food was good and the drinks were even better. Here are a couple of pictures from the Hard Rock Café.

Sunday morning, everyone headed to Tower City again so that Jeannette and I could shop and Anthony and Jeremy could look in the sports stores for any Steelers memorabilia. At around 11:00 a.m. the boys went back to the hotel to have some beer before the game while Jeannette and I continued to shop.

After Jeannette and I finished our shopping we returned to the hotel room to watch the rest of the game. Shortly after the end of the game, Jeremy and Anthony came into the room and started to tell us events that happened at the game. Here is a couple of pictures from the game.

Monday morning started with us getting up and out of the hotel around 7:00 a.m. We started on our way and we spotted an IHOP so we decided to get breakfast. I ordered a cinnamon raisin waffle filled with cream cheese and topped with blueberry and whipped topping. Yummmm!!! Anthony had a blast with all the different syrups for his pancakes.

After breakfast we made our way to Cabela’s and then off to Birch Run. Jeannette and I had a great time. We spent way too much money and filled my car to the top. The rest of the ride home wasn’t very fun, but well worth it.

The entire weekend was a blast and new year we’ll plan to go see the Packers, which is Anthony’s favorite team.

GIS Day!!!

Today, I hosted a GIS (Geographic Information System) Day for 190 highschools students in the Algoma region. Some students slept through the day's activities, some students listened, but for the most part most students became more familiar with what GIS is.

A couple news articles about the GIS day.

Cleveland Rocks!

Seeing as I'm going to Cleveland this weekend I decided to post this...

Hopefully, I'll be able to run and dance down this street with Jeannette while the boys are watching their football game.

JOKE:

Q: How many times will Odin eat a J-Cloth and throw it up?

A: 3 (so far) at least I think...I've lost count.

Yes, it happened again. I don't know how. I don't know when, but he got another one. After the second J-Cloth made its appearance, I decided to stop using them and to get rid of the rest of the package. Smart? Well, I thought so, but apparently not as smart as Odin.

When will he ever learn???

Second Annual Halloween Bash

Sorry for the latest of this post, I've been busy with work and haven't had a chance to update my blog.

This past weekend was the Second Annual Halloween Bash at Jeannette & Anthony’s place. It was a good time, even though I wasn’t drinking (stupid early work meeting). Jeremy and I dressed up as corpse bride and groom. Jeremy actually dressed up as a creature from Cedar Point’s Halloweekends, (Back Story: This creature scared Jeannette out of the park area and then found her later and scared her again) but looked like a corpse groom. Here is a picture of us.
















There was lots of good food, snacks and drinks. My favorite were the jell-o shooters (Goulish Grape, Fresh Blood, Bat Puree, and Peach Puss).

Jeannette and Anthony dressed up as a devil and a vampire. And I would like to mention that Jeannette actually stayed in costume until midnight. I was quite impressed. Eventhough, I'm sure she would have rather changed into something more comfortable, she looked awesome. Bryan attended and took a massive amount of pictures (about 310 to be exact) and was dressed up as a cowboy with a horse. Heather spent a whooping $5.99 on her costume of a bear...only she couldn't find any ears so Chrissy (the 80's rock star) said she was a "B" because she didn't have any "ear"s. (Get it...drunk people, where do they come up with these things?). Michelle came as a pumpkin which was a very cute costume considering she said she doesn't fit into any costumes. I know for a fact that she would have definitly would have fit into Luke's costume, but probably wouldn't look as cute a Luke did (sorry Michelle). I've attached some pictures from the night on the bottom of the entry, if you want to see a few of Bryan's pictures goto www.flashthecat.com.
