Calamity Jane

Cause just when you think your week can't possibly get any worse....


you come home to a counter moving with ants.

This is a picture of a fish L and I saw at a restaurant. We both swore it was deceased since it wasn't moving and was caught in the weeds.


We were informed by a waiter that it was 'just resting' or some kind of joke.


I still think it had 'ceased to be.'

Scenes of Summer

I realize it's August and that I didn't post a thing the entire two months of June and July, so I thought I would share a smattering of pictures to describe what I've been up to... enjoy!

The funny thing about blogs is...

... you have to actually update them.
Not just think about updating, or daydream about it,
you have to actually get in there and do it!

But I'm awful at it: the remembering, the preparing, the doing.
I do daydream about it, but usually while I'm at work, sans my stack of pictures necessary for such a task.

So here's a smattering of what I have been up to, with a promise to do better next time...

We celebrated this guy's birthday

And he brought his entourage

And these girls

who took pictures with the dogs

and Maddie got excited.

Artsy pictures were taken...

And then we all played Rock Band.

The End.

Pathetic

So it's almost the end of February, and I've been super slack on my postings.

In my defense, I've been busy.

Busy with school, and work, and of course, procrastination...

And this little tool does nothing to help at all!

It produces some awesome pictures, with a touch of the Polaroid magic.

It adds some 80s feel to beach pictures...

It makes snow in Central Park look even better...

And does really nothing for this picture...
just makes it look even more ridiculous!

So yes, I'm blaming my procrastination on my fondness for the look of Polaroid.


Try it, it's addictive!!

Lots of Things...

So I've been a little busy over the past few days...

Meaning no posts.

So here some photos to catch you up!

My holidays included:

Decorating the tree on Christmas Eve

Some pranks :)

Some delicious breakfast Christmas morning

A lazy New Year's Eve in

Cooking some dessert in my new Dutch oven

Some smiling cousins

AND

Pestering my sisters!



Fingers crossed, I will start posting on a more regular basis.

Once things calm down and all.

Thanksgiving Weekend

Be Warned: this post has little words but lots of pictures.


Let's start at the beginning.
Wednesday night was a wonderful time at the Hollywood Tavern.
Lots of dancing and ridiculousness.

A little Shout perhaps??

Being serenaded by some guy.

Thursday was the parade in Center City, then dinner at my parents' with the Kauffmans.

Tobin wasn't too impressed with his first Thanksgiving Day Parade

Santa Claus is coming!!

Two turkeys

Friday was Black Friday shopping with the family, then New Jersey for the Gilson wedding.

The Old School cousins

And some of the New School cousins

Saturday was a day at the spa... followed by a wonderful wedding.
No pictures of that, but maybe I'll find some...
