Happy Birthday to...

(Bryan's real Birthday was yesterday. But, I had two sick, throwing-up kids and didn't get around to a post)

Bryan hit the big 3-0 yesterday, I know we are getting old. I surprised him with a weekend to ourselves. My sister-in-law was brave enough to take the boys for a night (with all the grandparents out east it has been years since we have done something like that). It was a very nice little breather.

Bryan has been such a great husband and father. I don't know what we would do without him.

I love you babe. Happy Birthday.

My Lockers!!!

Better late than never...right? This was my big Christmas present from Bryan. He built these lockers during his two week vacation at Christmas. I just finished painting, which took forever!

Before:


After (behold the awesomeness):





The pictures really don't do it justice. It's a hard space to get a good shot. To appreciate the true beauty you'll have to come see it for yourselves... Just thinking of all the organization possibilities brings joy and warmth to my heart .

To my soft handed, computer programmer husband - Way to go babe. You rock.

Sister Shoot

So, I'm posting a few pictures of my sister and I. It feels a little weird, but what's the point of having pictures if you can't share them, right??

Katie came to visit for Christmas and wanted to get pictures taken. This is my lovely and extremely talented sister-in-law at work again. How lucky that I get to be a Guinea pig while she learns all the ins-and-outs to her new camera. She is amazing, to say the least. Check out her new photo blog here

Thanks Andrea!! ( I hear this is just a glimpse, more to come later...)
