Happy Birthday Brooklyn!

Today is my niece Brooklyn's birthday! She's 5 going on 15...Sike! She's been waiting for her birthday ever since the beginning of Summer and now it's here!! Happy Birthday Brook!!

A Bit of Controversy

On Saturday I went with my sister Tami to get her 15 month-old daughter ears pierced. People have been giving her a hard time about Hadley having earrings. She cried only for a minute and then immediately started smiling again. Pain obviously not an issue. So what's the big deal with getting a little girl's ears pierced?

A Letter to The Editors

We attended The Editors concert on Saturday night at In The Venue, I had a headache and almost opted for Adam to leave me at the homeless shelter but I was really glad I went. We saw the band about a year ago at The Depot and I hardly remember them being so lively, but the lead singer who's name is Tom, I just refer to him as Tom Editor, was very lively and captivating with his deeeep voice...see for yourself.



I tried taking some pictures but they didn't turn out very well, so I stole this little ditty off YouTube. Sorry for just posting two in a row but this is almost as good as being there!

The show also had some really good opening bands Ra Ra Riot, with an electrical string section, and Biffy Clyro, a band from Scotland.

Obsessed!

Anyone who has been around me lately knows that I am very obsessed with a certain song. It all started when my sister-in-law Ashley made me the Boo Yeah Mix '07 with this song and now it's my ringtone.



The song is orignally by Rihanna, but I found this version on Soffe's blog and I think it's one of the best versions out there! Thanks Soffe!!

Yikes!

My Day of Labor Post with the before and after pictures of our bathroom created a Monster, we were going to wait until next spring or so to do the shower but Adam couldn't wait...This is what I can home to last night, scary huh? When I went to bed it was still pretty scary looking but they got walls up so there aren't holes anymore.

California.

We went to California with my whole family in August.
There were 23 of us, what were we thinking? Actually, I thought it was a lot of fun... (only after we got a little crazy).

Day of Labor.

After a hard Day of Labor (not by me), I thought it would be fun to see what our bathroom looked like before the remodeling...
