Sometime's right where you started from.....

Is right where you belong.
(Sarah, I stole this from your mantel, don't be mad!)

Well.....I sure hope so, cause that's where we're headed.... right where i started from (no not my mother's uterus, you weirdo's).

The McGuire's are OFFICIALLY moving back to Dodge City, Kansas. (GASP!!!!)



We gave our notices this week...started packing up the house...it's really happening!!!!


There's a mix of emotions floating around... Excited (for our new adventure)....Nervous (that we won't get used to the smell and totally regret it!)..... Anxious (to get settled, to start new careers)..... worried(We won't fit in)......
PUMPED (to be close to family/friends)....
(These girls will be a Little closer!)

(These beautie's live in Dodge...BONUS!!)

(Some QT with the parentals will for SURE happen)

But most importantly....THANKFUL for this amazing opportunity!

Snow = Idiots Driving

Living in Colorado you'd think everyone was used to driving in snow...and would be at least remotely good at it right? (this is NOT in colorado, hince the european tags, it's just for effect, deal with it!!)
Ummmmm NOPE!!!! In denver drivers defense this is only the second time it's snowed this winter, but still....come on people get a flipping grip!!!!!! It's slippery...it's icy.... you WILL slide if you are going fast or slam on your breaks.... if you slide in my direction i will go all Chuck Norris on your ass....that's a promise.

Ok...that's my CO drivers rant.

Nothing really fun to report (Just wait!!!). We spent the weekend hanging out with family! Saturday over at our aunt and uncles watching basketball/football, then we the evening we spent in Boulder with Bre and Ben. Sunday it started snowing....so therefor any motivation was out the window and all we did was grocery shop and take a nap while watching football.

This week i have dr.'s appointments coming out the wazoo....ok not really...just two. And both on wednesday so it seems over whelming when it really isn't!! We'll hit the road Thursday after work for good ol Dodge City! We have Friday AND Monday off....i plan on doing a LOT of relaxing and maybe some drinking with Jessi and Jamie if they'll have me :)

Stay warm friends!!

Happy New Year!!!

Do you want to know what this BOMP did all weekend??? If you think i got dressed up in my skankiest outfit, went downtown, paid a$20 cover charge at the door and $10 for my rum/diet....you'd be wrong. We did pretty much NOTHING!!!!! Well that's not true.....we watched every single episode of Weeds....

I'd heard about this show before, but really wasn't interested in watching....till i was so bored i had no other option Thursday night. Fast foward to Sunday night and we're still watching!!! With breaks for these things... bathroom, food, gym, massages, and movie theatre. Other than that....we were super unproductive ALL weekend. I'd like to say it was glorious....but to be honest with you i was annoyed. I wish we would have had something cool to do....plans with friends....ski trip.... streaking in the quad....something, anything!!!! I may or may not have cried at the gym while talking to trav about what we were going to do for the next two straight days....i felt like a loser....a planless loser. Thank God trav doesn't have his second job anymore and was home with me the whole weekend....i may have gone batshit crazy otherwise.

Welp....anyways. It's 2011.....i'm not sure how i feel about that. Well that's not true....i'm GLAD 2010 is over. I hated 2010. 2010 was a mean bully of a year. So my plan is to show 2011 who's boss. I'll let you know how that goes. I'd do resolutions....but i think they're the same as my plans for my 27th year of life.... Big things...HUGE things are coming my way this year....i can just feel it :)

We're officially B.O.M.P's

...Boring....Old....Married.....People.
There are a million things we could do to celebrate New Years....a billion even. What do we choose to do???? Nothing. Nada. Not a damn thing!!
And that is perfectly A-OK with us. I hate the crowds, I hate the cover charges, I hate the girls dressed like strippers, and I hate the $20 rum and cokes. (Plus it's supposed to be brrrr cold, no bueno....nope)
So if you need us Friday, you'll find us snuggled up on our couch, in sweat pants, playing Donkey Kong or Big Buck Hunter on the wii, with a cocktail in hand. If we're feeling crazy, we may bust out sparklers at midnight :)

Now it's time to save save save!!!!!

Guess what I did today.....

Well....besides get lots of super awesome gifts and lots of quality family time.....

I accidently ran 7.56 miles.
I know what your thinking....how do you accidently run anything??? Well i set out on a mission to run for ohhhh about 40 minutes...and the route i had in mind was what i thought 2 or so miles one way, so my plan was to run to the end of the road and back. Turns out that little road was over 3 miles....and the road i was taking to cross over, another mile. The thing about running outside....you can't just stop and go home. Before i knew it, i had been running for an hour....only stopped once, and that was to figure out what the hell i was going to do cause i had to go to the "bathroom" SUPER bad. (Run thru it...that's all you can do!) So i think i can officially say......i'm a fan of running outside, WAY more than i'm a fan of running inside. (Plus, running in Kansas after running so much in high alititude in Colorado is NIIIIIIIICE!)
Now if it just wasn't sooooooo flipping cold out i'd be running outsides #1 fan!!!

Merry Christmas!!

I hope you all had a Merry Merry Christmas!!!!

The most amazing dad......
The most AMAZING husband.....
Um......who's that guy??? (Just kidding!!) The most amazing quasi brother in law!
BY FAR....The MOST amazing family.....
And last but certainly NOT least....The MOST amazing COUSINS!!!
We are beyond blessed!!!
(And no, we don't just have horrible fashion sense, we just thought it'd be funny to wear my mom's gross old christmas sweaters to the Doll family Christmas!! The boys took the cake for sure!!)
