I hope everyone had a great Easter. Bj and I were up here in the Tri-Cities, Washington area with his parents. We pretty much just relaxed up here. I got my hair highlighted just a little in the morning, it makes me look a little perkier. Last night we rented The Incredibles and I finally got to see what everyone was talking about! It was so good. And if you haven’t rented it on DVD you should because there is a new short film added to it, Jack Jack Attack, that is really funny. Other than that we just hung around. These pictures are of Bj and I on his parent’s inversion table, that thing cracks me up! It is really relaxing though!
Isn’t Aj a cutie? Bj and I got up super early this morning to drive down to the WSU vs. OSU race in Dexter. Here are the results. Like Bj said, “An hour and a half of watching and we got to see 20 seconds of racing. But that’s not the point… the point is freezing your ass off.” No Bj! The point is seeing everyone and cheering on my Alma mater. One reason I wanted to go to this race is because my novice coach, Jane, is now the head coach for WSU in Pullman. Jane made my first year of crew such a good experience. Because of the opportunity I had that year I got to travel all over and participate in the coolest sport with the best girls. I made lifelong friends and gained so much confidence. I love keeping in touch with everyone from crew, but especially my first year. I love seeing Jane. I know she thinks I’m a little hyper, but hey, I only see her every once in a while so I have to be. I ran into a bunch of old friends at the show:

Oh and Bj was there too!
I also got this cute picture of Cj (Charlie’s son) on a fire truck that just happened to be there. He loves firetrucks, so it totally made his day. We only got to stay for a few minuets and didn’t get to see all the rowers after their races. I am planning a trip down to PAC-10s in Sacramento, CA at the end of spring with some other former rowers so I will get to see them all later. Then we took off for the tri-cities. Man, it was the worst drive we’ve ever had. It rained, and I mean poured, almost the whole drive there. It was windy and sideways and everything. We only stopped a couple of times once for a potty break and once for Tillamook cheese burgers at Burgerville. We rolled into town at about 4:30. We both had “hair appointments” with Bj’s mom when we got to Bj’s parent’s house. I was first and after pretty poorly describing what I wanted and totally confusing her, my haircut got underway. I can’t stand this long hair any more! I hate in the shower feeling in on my back, and I hate blow drying it, and I hate putting it up cause then I get a headache. I was basically just sick of it. And I know a few people wanted me to grow it out, but that was just about as long as I could go. So below you will see my before and after! I love it! And I think that I may have lost another pound, that was a lot of hair! Now we’re just hanging out and relaxing after our long drive.
Just some cute pictures of Beeg at the carwash tonight. I posted some more cool ones in my photo album, so if you haven’t checked it out please do! I like my new digital camera. It only has auto focus, but it’s great for point and shoot and keeping in my handbag (the real reason I got it). Oh, you know what I just realized that the other pictures I have of Bj at the car wash is in the same shirt, weird. hmm.
