A few tips

So a friend of mine said she read in a magazine that baby powder will take off sand and well we went to the beach and it really works great. Just sprinkle it on your hands or whatever and the sand comes right off. It works great, thanks Julie!

Another thing I think works great at the beach is when you are in the salty ocean and you hit a nice wave that take you under always have a jolly rancher in your mouth and the salt won't bother you so much. Then again I suppose you run the risk of joking on it when you are shoved by the wave.

Broken Jeremy

Hi all this is Jeremy taking over from Jeanette for a little post. If you are all wondering why I'm sporting the stylish new foot wear, I decided that I wanted to spend time behind a desk instead of at a station so. Yea its broken, and to top it off the doc said its called a Jones fracture, named for the guy that broke his foot in this place. The part that is broken is the bone on the outside portion of the foot. It in the thickest part of the bone and in the part of the foot that gets the least amount of blood flow. So it will take a long time to heal. 6-9 weeks. Ain't it cool. You are probably wondering how it happened. Well, we were in a structure fire on a rescue with reports of people trapped. I was half way into the building when we heard a rumbling. I dove forward to escape the collapsing roof. I wasn't fast enough so my left foot was smashed by some falling debris. I got to my knees freed my foot and continued with the rescue. Cool Story huh? What really sucks I made up that story to cover the lame truth. I really did it running at work. Stepped on a rock the wrong way and there you have it. What makes things worse is that it was broken for a week and I didn't know it. I thought it was just sprained until I was at work again and took a step to run and felt a pop. So for 2 weeks now Jeanette is the only able bodied adult in the house and she can't wait for my foot to get better.

Introduction

So I have been wanting to do this blog thing for a while since two of my friends have their own page and I love to check them out to see what is happening in their lives. I mostly love to look at the pictures and see how big the kids are getting. So Jeremy and I have been married now for almost 7 years. It will be 7 years July 16th. Now we have this cute little girl named Brianna. She is 15 months and all over the place. So here is the beginning of hopefully an interesting, fun and happy page for all our family and friends to check out.
