Road trip part 1

Denver visit...
We hit some neat breweries with Brian and Adam Seppala. This beer snob was happy. I had two of the best beers EVER.

http://www.breckbrew.com/ (try the vanilla porter)
Willie and Brian were so happy, happy to see each. I think that is reflected in the pictures below. I had alot of laughs too!

We were fortunate enough to see the Seppalas awesome house and meet baby Chloe for the first time as well. Chloe is super cute-good work Beth! We were probably even more impressed with their gorgeous home. They did an amazing remodel on their basement. It has a BAR WITH TAPS...radical. We need a basement bar, who doesn't? Why didn't I take any pictures of it?

Brian also has a scooter that Willie thought was super happy (I'm going to be PC here). My sisters will laugh of that picture of Willie on it...so fitting. Btw, in case one of Beth's sisters is reading this- Willie didn't actually ride the scooter, just got his picture taken on it. He did ride around on the automatic skateboard (shoot, I can't remember the name!). Loved it...







June is 3!

Happy Birthday Bug!
JB is the greatest dog in the whole world and my very best friend!


First day home from the shelter

Frownies


So now that I'm 31, I'm going to start using my frownies religiously.
If you need it, get them! I am a believer (well only after 2 uses).
Willie has laugh lines, I have worry lines...oh, touché

Birthday Blue

Ok so I'm finally posting about this...
I turned 31 a week ago. From now on I won't be mentioning how old I am. You will have to do the math on your own.
I had a great birthday here with my friends. We had a great dinner spread, hot tub time, a little DP and a small sleepover. Thanks to Sarah Latham for hosting! Thanks to all the girls for coming, bringing wine/food and for all the gifts!
Alex turns 21 next month so every birthday I suffer through she will be there, 10 years behind me!
*I don't have any clear pictures to send. If I find some, I will post.

New Phone

Ok everyone (who actually calls me!) I finally have a new phone.
I promise it will not have a dead battery all the time.
I also have texting now! So like, text me, ok?
I call it...Stubs.

Fast Days

The days are flying by! Matty & Laura arrived. They have been living with us in Idaho for about 1 week now. I hope they are enjoying themselves.
We celebrated Willie's 30th birthday over the weekend w/ a dinner party & a camping trip.
I will post some pictures shortly.
Happy June 1st! June has always been my favorite month.
Speaking of June...Bug is in surgery as we speak. She's getting a growth removed, I will keep you posted. Of course her Mama is very worried.
