wedding!

where have we been?

well, last week we traveled back to manhattan, ks for beezer (my sister's wedding). she looked real great.
unfortunately, being sister of the bride i didn't get many pictures.
i did make them a mosaic for their wedding, although i can't tell if they liked it.anyway, all the driving (1500 miles) and stress and the fun got to us all all week we have looked like our animals--curling up and sleeping whenever we can!

On the road again

We left last wednesday for manhattan to get little beezer married off. As much as i was,looking forward to the break from reality i  was dreading the 9 hour ride back even more.  7.5 hours in ez is obivously over the trip

It may look like we are back at the rose bowl parade but actually gearing up for beezer's big day!

Heaven

Oh manhattan, how i missed your roads.

Good heavens its windy out here!
Dallas has set up his makeshift office in the passenger seat complete with internet teathering and turning our car speakers into a conference call.

It took 40 plus semis to get this stage here

We got bored

And decided to go to the fray/u2 concert! Yeah 360 tour!

rainy day

hello from portland! or seattle!
or denver....

i thoroughly enjoyed my day off in rain.
nothing beats:
morning yoga
followed by pedicure
reading an entire book
and making these beauties inspired by this blog

(that says, "i think im' more important---from william, my blogging companion)

goodwill plates + spray paint
equals these cute little serving trays for my sister's wedding.

It is important to pick your painting partner wisely.

I dont think ez counts as a good pick

Not for everyone

My bathroom needed a new look. I figure if its gonna be the first thing i see every morning then might as well be cheerful.

Its spunkiness level increased 10 fold

Who would have guessed that just 20 min ago i picked up sedated ezra from his cortisone injection?

He already wants  to play frisbee

This is williams idea of helping in the yard

Only at work

Do we suture pork legs inbetween cases.

Happy easter!

Easter at our house is overwhelming with excitement.

what do you get when your awesome dad

and welds it together?

thanks dad!
total cost: 3 cans spray paint

Boy toys

We are cleaning out our garage and decided to clear up some space by putting the 37" tires on the jeep wheels.  Ez demonstrates how monsterous these things are.
I think they are rediculous.
Dallas couldnt be more excited.

I should probably find something else to do on a friday night.

Im also sure that the neon food coloring isnt organic. Its pretty though!
