Biker Chick?!!!

That's right, I will soon be a biker chick. Marijn and I are taking our first motorcycle lessons so instead of always riding bitch with my family, we can finally ride alongside them. I'm a little nervous but also excited about being able to finally ride a motorcycle and don't worry, we won't go for the crotch rocket when we start motorcycle shopping. I am partial to getting a Vespa but Marijn is a tad hesitant about riding around on a "girlie" bike.

The Joys of Halloween

Pumpkin carving, haunted houses, spooky amusement park rides, horror movies and creative costumes makes Halloween one of my favorites.

• great america's halloween haunt •

One of the best things to witness each year is watching Marijn's outfits get more complicated and unique each year especially since the first time he celebrated Halloween was in 2006. I think that he just has a lot of catching up to do!

• 2006 - Army Man •

• 2007 - Park Ranger •

• 2008 - Pinhead and he successfully scared people •

• 2009: zombie clown with high creepy factor •

• He wandered the streets of Pacific solo, following people and freaking them out.
He even made a little girl cry which was quite priceless •
