Well–I had a clever post all planned out, but Rusty pretty much stole it. Title and all. I’m suing for plagiarism. So go here to read about the messiest basement disaster ever to hit the planet. I seriously never knew it was possible to make such a mess out of a little styrofoam. But leave…
Yes, it’s official. Halle is in Kindergarten at Black Rock Elementary. In true Halle fashion, on the very first day she marched in like she owned the place, hung up her backpack, and with nary a goodbye kiss was off to conquer the world. I think she gets that from her dad, b/c before I…
When your hubby is launching a new business and you have no money, you have to be creative in your vacationing. Our neighbors, Brian and Erin, got married in Vail, so we decided to have one last summer hurrah and all go up for the weekend. I scoured the internet for good hotel deals and…
Happy Anniversary to us! I wish my hair was still that color….

I just got back Blake’s 6 week photo shoot, and I think the pictures turned out pretty darn cute. http://widget-fe.slide.com/widgets/slideticker.swf
Yes, I do know how to spell (well…that might be a slight exaggeration). Picnik.com is my new favorite website. According to the website, “Picnik is photo editing awesomeness.” And I totally agree. Best of all, it’s FREE. (Mostly) Ok, ok, I admit, they roped me into the “premium” membership, but I’m glad I did it….
This week Halle attended her first ever Tennis Camp. Rusty was skeptical that 5 year olds could learn tennis, but he was wrong. She did awesome. Her teacher was great and knew just what to say and do to make the whole thing really fun. The camp was just 4 straight days, and now we…
