Drum Roll Please

your requests have been granted...here are a few shots of my present day largeness:) these were some shots taken at the wedding we attended last week in Tennessee. We will be going this Wednesday for our second ultrasound in hopes of finding out if it will be a boy or a girl :) I'll keep you posted. feel free to send any name recommendations, seriously. this will be a community effort as is every other adventure in our life!

Lake or Bust

I just want to swim in a lake...it's a strange craving but all summer the longing has only intensified. I know I can't tube or ski right now but simply floating in the water sounds fantabulous. I have been reminiscing about an old childhood friend and the hours we spent at her lakehouse basking in the sun and swimming in the merky waters...good memories...if only I were in Texas. Maybe in a week or so I can take a dip in a hole while in Tennessee, we'll see. For now I'll just enjoy my lukewarm bath water and face the fact that I live in the city these days :)

In Person

So as usual, my AMAZING husband surprised me! He snagged some tickets to see Jack Johnson at the Tweeter Center...and not just any tickets but we were on about row 20 under the covered pavilion. It was so much fun. All in all Jack remains an amazing artist in my book! Thanks Chris for loving on me, even when I don't deserve it! You might want to check out one of the guys who opened for him: Neil Halstead of the UK. Folk/Indie artist that we really enjoyed. http://www.myspace.com/neilhalsteadofficial
