Memorial Day Weekend!

Franklin and I went to Cleveland over the weekend and had a fabulous time! We went to the zoo, Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, an Indians game and saw "The Longest Yard." It was a very relaxing trip with lots of room service and resting, just what the doctor ordered! Hope everyone had an enjoyable long weekend, only 31 more days till the next one!!!

Dance Recital

This past Saturday I went to my niece's dance recital. These are always fun because it's 2 hours of 3-17 year olds doing tap, ballet, jazz, pom, and even irish jig! My favorites are the little ones who just stand up there and turn their heads to watch the teacher in the wings showing them how to do the dance! Sometimes they play with their costumes, wave to their parents or pick their noses. Great fun! However, my niece was by far one of the best dancers up there. Her and her two friends did a jazz dance called Night Creatures. They were very serious and performed well. Five years of watching her dance and she's definitely improved! She's a performer, kind of like me. :) Her excitement was overwhelming because just before the recital she found out she made the cheerleading team (traveling, competitive team no less)! Now it's all she can talk about. I'm not sure if she'll stay with dance but whether it's a recital or a cheerleading match, I'll be there to cheer for her!!

My new car!!!

In all the excitement of getting ready to head to D.C. I totally forgot to post about my new car!!! I was only able to drive it for 2 days before going on my trip, but it's wonderful!!! It's a Superior Blue Impala. It's beautiful and goes real fast! :) Can't wait to get home and drive it! Franklin has only taken it out once since I've been gone, or so he says. ;)

When I'm gone...

I'm out of town on business for 8 days and Tom hates it! He's a very social person anyway and doesn't like to be alone, but he particularly hates it when I'm gone. It's very sweet. Thankfully his family, my family and our friends are taking care of him. :) Thanks everyone!

Franklin - I miss you and I'll be home soon!!

Git-R-Done!!!

Tom, Traci, Dan and I went to see Larry the Cable Guy on Saturday. He was hilarious!!!! It wasn't fun driving to Detroit and walking around during our spring blizzard, but we still had a blast. In the words of Larry, "I used to be a lifeguard, until some blue kid got me fired." I don't care who you are, that's funny!!!

You know what I love?

I love crossing over those black wires on the roads that are counting cars or something. I'm not sure how they work exactly but I love that I may be part of something big!!! Especially when they're put on roads that have a ton of traffic, I think maybe they'll add a light or a lane and maybe I should turn around and go over it again!

What's in a name....

I thought I should explain the title of our blog. It's Franklin and Fronda. Those are our nick names for each other. Tom gave me the nick name Fronda because he likes to pick something silly like that and then do a ryhme..Fronda Bonda Shonda. And so on, yes folks, he does it daily. I gave him his nickname based on his signature. When he signs his name it looks like Frank and then I just started calling him Franklin. :)

Blogger Wannabe

I'm very excited about my first post!! I've been reading my friend's blogs and I feel like I'm with them more often than I actually am. :) I talk about them all the time and so Tom says to me, "Why don't we have a blog?" Why not indeed! So here we are being blogger wannabees. :)

Our lives are not that interesting but probably consistently busy enough to post something. Plus we do have a lot of friends that don't live near us and therefore they can feel closer to us, if they so choose, by reading this. If not, delete the link!
