Nephews

I became an Auntie for the 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th time all in the year of 2010. I am blessed to have so many fat babies to kiss and love.

Le Reve - Spring 2010

Free show tickets and posh accommodations for next to nothing? Don't mind if I do. I'd like to thank Mr. Wynn for the lovely time we had. Our room was luxurious, even sold Brandon on the idea of motorized, remote controlled draperies. We enjoyed the pool and spa everyday. Having an umbrella and wifi for Brandon could not have been planned better. And of course the crab legs, num num numm! Las Vegas is a great spring getaway.

winter '09-'10

Don't let the short sleeves fool you. This is Christmas eve and my sister Hiedi's birthday dinner.

I can't say I love winter, but I do love a sunny day on the mountain. I managed to ski Sundance about 10 times, enough to keep away the winter blues. I even convinced Brandon to join me.

Rocco, however, loves the snow. He will whine at the backdoor relentlessly until you let him out. Then he will bounce around like a bunny chasing little snowballs he kicks up and eating so much snow that you'd think it tasted like a roast beef snowcone.

Halloween 2009

A trip to the dollar store and a stroll down the toy aisle at Macey's was all it took to complete our halloween costumes. One might assume I'm very creative and thrifty or that our costumes weren't really that much of a stretch from the truth. Either way I had to pick something that Brandon would agree to, because I refuse to be denied entry into the party for not dressing up. Presenting Dog and Beth, Bounty Hunters.

Crusing the Mediterranean

We made ten stops: Venice, Athens, Kusadasi, Istanbul, Mykonos, Naples, Rome, Livorno, Monaco, and Barcelona. Turkey and Greece had the best food and shopping. The gelato was divine everywhere. I never got enough. Brandon however could have had less walking and less sun and less buffett. Something is wrong with him. I am pleased to report that I didn't gain any weight on my cruise. I attribute this to my apathy of dessert and the bowel issues that inevitably accompany all overseas adventures. I love mylanta. Before I get too personal here are the pictures.

St George

This spring we visited St. George a few times. We stayed with our friends Ashley, Jake, Bill and Ginny. Great people and Fun times.

Less than Stellar 2/12/09

Our outfits and dance moves did not disappoint. Vanilla Ice and McHammer however did not bring their "A" game. Needless to say we had a blast and were asked to pose for several pictures. Really.
