breck trip

we just got back from a trip to breckenridge, and wow, it snowed! we scheduled our wedding-planning-trip conveniently during the peak of ski season, so of course we had to take some time out to enjoy the mountain! after a little skiing and a few meetings, we came back with the satisfaction of a fun trip and a good set-up for our wedding. good stuff.

mckenzie, because of her size and ability to fit under the seat in front of me on the plane, was able to join on the trip. norman stayed here in big d with payton, his golden-retriever-friend, and they swam in the pool all weekend long. norm will definitely make the trip with us this summer for the big day!

some cute pics from our trip:




some not-so-cute pics from our trip:

i had to add these pics...we were trying to figure out if we had the timer set so we could take the first of the above pics. we laughed so hard when i downloaded the pics and realized we had taken these. such an old-people moment..."is this thing on?!?" giggle.

i heart nike

i was rooting for ohio state in the national championship this year. (no, they aren't the sooners, but they'll do. herbstreit went there, and that's enough for me). i always root for nike clothing. good stuff. enough dialouge, this video is funny, courtesy of jay.

we had a sunday-funday yesterday at lee harvey's. SOMEONE found the onion rings very tasty.

news?

does anyone else wonder if anything else has happened in the last 24 hours?

seriously, this has been the lead story on cnn for more than a day! i don't remember the last time a story kept "our" attention to this level. r.i.p., anna nicole. and cnn, let's get some new stories!! hasn't paris hilton been drunk or exposed for drug use? haven't bush's approval ratings dropped more? something else must've happened!

that said, i, like most of you, have turned my head everytime i hear word that there is "breaking news" in her case. "oh, breaking news, what has happened?!?!?" i am just amazed how captivated we all (obviously) are. what did the toxicology report say, where will the baby end up, who is the father, oh, another quote from the owner of the jim's crispy fried chicken shack in mexia?!? i must hear!!....

a dog-day sun-day

this last sunday a bunch of our friends and jay, norman, mckenzie and i went to the dog park in deep ellum and lee harvey's for a fun-filled afternoon. below, a few pics...

norman says, "MAMMA, CAN I HAVE A HOT DOG!?!"
