Bill joined the local YMCA recently and I was able to take a tour today. He needs a hobby and working out several times a week is just the ticket. The River Valley YMCA just opened in September 2009. They have lots of exercise equipment, have classes, and even a pool. It really is a great facility. Maybe I need a hobby there too?
Take a look. This is today (a Sunday) and everyone looks like they are having lots of fun. I have a 3 day pass so I'll be trying it out between now and the middle of July.
What's your hobby? What do you do to relax and stay in shape?

Hobby Update - Working Out at the Gym
Walking Goal - 30 Minutes Every Day on Tour
I am on Day 3 of my 30 minutes of walking every day. Bill and I were in Prior Lake for Sunday morning coffee and I took a walk down Main Street to get my 30 minutes in after. Main Street is cute and there are a few interesting shops I'll have to take a look at again soon when they aren't closed.
This is where we had coffee. No pastry. It looked good but I wasn't even tempted. Well, maybe just a little.
Here's a cute gift shop at the end of the street. The displays outside are so cute and reminiscent of days gone by.
Another cute shop.

Happy Anniversary to Us
Lovely dinner at the Roasted Pear and a movie at home. Great Evening.
We watched 'The Fountainhead' with Gary Cooper and Patricia Neal. Have you seen it? It's from a book by Ayn Rand popular in the United States in 1943.
Cheers!

It's A Boy!
Emily had her baby this morning at 3 AM. It's a boy. Mommy and baby are doing well.
Congratulations to the proud parents and my sister and hubby - his grandparents!
Send more photos soon! Can't wait to shop. I love to shop for baby stuff. It's just the mailing part that I'm not real good at, but I'll do my best..jpg)

Here we are together again for a fun lunch at Kincaids with our favorite server (Jilliane - not pictured).
Nice break from work and it's great to see my friends. We'll have to do it again soon, Jo.

Saturday Afternoon Scrapbooking
I don't know how long it has been since I worked on a scrapbook.
I was invited to join some women working on their scrapbooks and of course I said, 'yes'.
I had supplies in a box of our Red Wing trip from a few years ago, pulled it out and joined the group.
Great fun! D's husband made us Frapacinnos,while we worked on pages.
I even finished my travel scrapbook - including journaling. But only because it was just Bill and me on the trip (no children or grandchildren) and Bill didn't let me take many pictures. This project was done in no time.
I arrived home in time to join Bill for dinner at Noodles and Company (now in Burnsville) and then we caught the movie 'Date Night' - really cute and hilarious!
Did you have a fun day too? Hope so. The weather was beautiful.
