Ask A Gay Man (From Paducah!)



Nick stumbled upon this website today showing William Sledd, the manager from the Gap store here in Paducah. Take a look at the article, then check him out on You Tube; there are some hilarious videos!

Play First, Work Later!


I took the afternoon off work today. I had one full day left to use byJune 30th, so I decided to split it between yesterday afternoon and this afternoon. Yesterday, I planned on coming home to clean the house, but Mom invited me to lunch at a new place in LowerTown, "The Stranded Cow." After our delicious meal and dessert, we did a little shopping. Today, I really do have to clean the house, then I'm headed to the gym for a run!

Softball





We just got Taylor's softball pictures back. Isn't she a cutie!?


Badminton




Nick and I started a new lifestyle in February. We have a goal of becoming healthier by eating better and exercising more. We have been riding bikes, walking, running, working out at the gym together, playing Frisbee, and more. This past weekend, Mom found my old badminton/volleyball set in the garage and we decided to put it up. Nick and I played for about two hours; to the point we could barely walk for three days, but it was lots of fun!




Punta Cana

When Nick broke his ankle and fibula three weeks before our wedding last year, we decided to postpone our honeymoon trip. In April, we started making plans to take a trip for our anniversary instead, and we just returned from the fabulous Riu Palace Macao in Punta Cana, DR. We had an amazing time and came back relaxed and very tan! We decided that this trip was worth the wait and that it was much better to go when we did than right after our wedding reception. I don't think I could have handled planning one more thing last year!







We want to go back to Punta Cana again next year for our anniversary and hope that our friends Bobbie and Donnie can join us!

AIM


My sister-in-law Courtney left for her mission trip in Australia on June 5th. She will be there for at least 14 months living with other missionaries from the AIM program. Courtney has several sponsors who make donations to her through Lone Oak Church of Christ each month. When she finishes her mission work, she will be able to enroll in any Christian college as a Junior. This picture is of Courtney, Caleb, and Taylor on Taylor's 9th birthday.
We miss Courtney a lot!

Catching Up


Well I haven't posted anything since January, and I really had kind of forgotten about Bonus Nachos (the blog, NOT the joke) until my friend Trina suggested I start a blog!

So, here it goes. Nick and I have been married over a year now. He started a new job with Pebco, the parent company of AAA Fabricators, where he used to work. He now has a job doing purchasing/receiving/inventory control and really loves it. It's a great job for him since he no longer has to be on his feet (and broken ankle) all day.

Taylor finished her third grade year in May with all A's and has been playing lots of softball with the Lone Oak Youth Baseball and Softbafll Association for the team Allen's All-Stars.

I'll do my best from now on to stay caught up with Bonus Nachos!
