Day 16 - Another picture of yourself





Another picture of me...well, I'm picking this one because, seriously, I think I look pretty hot in this picture! I don't tend to like pictures of myself but this one I do.






Since I've already talked about random pieces of me, I'll just blog about the day this picture was taken. June 19, 2010 - VLB Family Picnic day.



Our office does tons of really cool and fun stuff for us, but last year they decided to do a family picnic for the employees and their families to get together. They chose Rotary Park in Rockledge, because there was a big pavillion and access to the river for water sports and fun. And it was an amazing day. Geoff was coming down the following weekend but I remember texting him how much I wished he had been down for that because it was such a blast. There was a bouncy house for the kids and we had cornhole boards set up for people to play. Several employees and my boss brought down their boats and jet skis and took people for rides. One of the partners of the firm took my son out on his first jet ski ride and still to this day my son talks about Mr. Sam taking him out on the jet ski. One of the women's boyfriends runs a karaoke business and they brought their gear and we even had karaoke. Since we're a party crowd, the beer ran out of course, but there was plenty of barbecue and good times. I came home a little burnt of course, but took some great pictures.


Working in an office with 40+ women, it's difficult to make everyone happy but I never heard one bad word about that day. Can't wait until we get this years picnic set!

Day 12 - Picture of where you live

Image
Deviating from the list I originally chose again today because it's a pretty boring topic...who really cares how I found out about blogger and why I have one? That should be obvious - cause I wanted to blog. There ya go. Short, boring post right? Instead, I will post up a picture of where I live - or a close reasonable proximity. You want to see my house? Then be my friend on facebook... The place where I feel most at home though is the beach. Miles and miles of ocean surround me and I'm in heaven. As much as I wish I could be someplace else at times, I feel like I need to be around the water. Yes, I burn. Yes, it's hot and sandy and I make a mess in my car on the way home but while I am there, I just don't care. I live in what is technically a city - albeit a really, really small one that is pretty much dying before my eyes. We are super dependent on the space program and our current administration doesn't feel it's a priority so we are losing jobs and our comm...

A picture of my family

Image
I'm from a big family, but my picture is my own immediate world...Me and my son. I've just blogged about my boy, so I won't give a lot of details but I will do a generic discussion about my family. We're a big family. My mom is one of four girls, and I am the oldest of six (through a blended mix). My dad was one of three but it's more extended family on his side because one of his brothers passed away when he was a teenager and the other has never had children. My paternal grandmother was one of 8 and my paternal grandfather was one of 12. I don't know many of the great aunts and uncles, etc. on my maternal side but my maternal grandmother wasn't an only child either, so there are more family members. Two of my aunts have three kids, and one of my aunts has four. I have a ton of extended cousins and whatnot mostly in Kentucky and Indiana. Three of my sisters also have children so I have one niece and three nephews. One of my cousins also has four ki...

30 days of Krista

A few of my friends are doing this blogging project and I feel inspired to start the new year by attempting to get back to writing for fun instead of just writing legal pleadings all the time. If I can keep it up, then I have another outlet for my sadly waning creativity. Plus, being in a long distance relationship leaves lots of nights where I have nothing to do but miss him, and well, this may help distract me on occasion. So for the first topic I am supposed to post a photo of myself and 15 interesting facts about me...Photo of self posted, now onto the so-called interesting facts about yours truly. 1. I hate snow and really cold weather. Ironically, I've just spent a week in New Hampshire with nothing but snow and cold weather...and for the record, the heat is not on if you have it set for 60 degrees... 2. I believe in God, but I don't believe in forcing myself to go to church. I feel like I've seen too many people play the good Christian on Sunday whi...
