Day 60: Retro by J.

At last night's diorama exhibit, I saw this retro hot wheels van. It's also in front of a CD player radio, which will be retro/extinct soon enough.

EDIT: Just realized it's actually a tape radio and already extinct. Oops!

Day 56: Sacred by J.

Stopped by the big town block party today. Didn't get to stay around long enough to see Ortolan (awesome band) play their set... because this Elvis impersonator went on forever.

The ladies in the crowd didn't seem to mind though. Even an impersonator was like a god to them. It got a little creepy at times.

Day 55: Mess by Taylor

That's my girl, the love of my life. Just wish she had more teeth.

Been slacking in posts of late, I blame our upcoming wedding for that. In turn, both Becca and I have been an utter mess to be around. So...who wants to hang out soon? Should have a post on our wedding blog soon updating you all with our latest fun.

Also, you should have received an email inviting you all to contribute to the list of themes for October. Please share some ideas, otherwise I'm making up words, and then you're on your own.

This is an accident waiting to happen.

Poor couch.

Accident?
I think not.

Day 51: Underneath by Taylor

Soft kitty, warm kitty, little ball of fur. Happy kitty, sleepy kitty, purr, purr, purr

Day 51: Underneath by J.

I fear public bathrooms. Is there a specific term for that?

Day 50: Odd by J.

We need to really start Elle on the odd numbers. She can count to 10 using even numbers only, which is pretty odd. I guess it's our fault for starting it off by saying "one" every time, to which she'll answer "two". I've tried getting her to repeat one, but she'll just go to four and six and so on...

Day 49 and 50: Hair and Odd

So this is my hair, it's red and curly and frizzy. Also I am odd so this counts for both. :P

Day 49: Hair by Taylor

Some people have whats called a happy trail. I have a happy 4-lane highway. If you stare at it, its sort of like a Rorschach drawing, but made of hair.

Day 49: Hair by J.

Today was board game day, so I didn't really see too much of anything other than cards, wooden pieces, dice, and pizza...

This is me holding a Famous Missions group that would be a strong contender for a "best facial hair" mission.

Day 49: Hair by Becca

I have always had mixed feelings about my hair. I started going gray when I was 16 and it has pretty much been thick and wavy since then. Through out college I dyed my hair, but being the low maintenance type of person that I am...I decided to let it go.

Sometimes I forget that I have some pretty significant streaks of silver. Until the kids I work with are stumped by my age, or older coworkers come up to me and tell me how inspiring I am (seriously...I have a 40 something year old coworker growing her hair out gray, because she feels empowered...by me?!)

But I have come to enjoy it as I have gotten older.

Day 48: Dark by Becca

When I carpool with Mike from work, I typically pass the time by walking to the Y so he can wrap up loose ends before he leaves. Today, as I was about to walk out the door, dark clouds approached and began to downpour. I was not prepared with any type of rain protection, so I had to settle on waiting for my ride.

Day 48: Dark by J.

Tonight will be a dark night in our house..

Elle won a fish at the street fair. She actually lost but they gave her the fish anyway. So she named him Barney and was super excited. We stopped and got him food on the way home but it was too late. RIP Barney the fish.

Day 47: Punch by Taylor

Nobody puts Baby in the corner.

Day 47: Punch by J.

This was Elle's hospital photo from when she was just a few days old. I've always thought she looked like she was going to punch someone.

Day 46: Circus by J.

I really want the Playmobil Big Top to house all of my Circus sets. It was on sale a few months ago but I probably bought a Lego set instead. It doesn't matter because they're all just stored away in our basement. :(

Day 45: Surprise by J.

Knowing how easily Brian gets surprised... I waited all day to get this shot. Then I waited in the dark at the top of the stairs for him to come up. Was definitely worth the wait..

Day 44: Sleep by Taylor

This is my cat, Elwyn. He came to live with us last November. Since then, I have not slept, as he likes to come and sit on my chest, purr very loudly, and chew on my beard. If he is thrown off the bed, he happily jumps back up and comes to sit on my chest, still purring loudly, and continues to eat my beard. He weighs 20 lbs/9 kg.
