and then we went to dallas...

i have yet to post pictures of my trip to dallas with my pril! now i'm doing it.


in the car... in the car... where i smoked my first cigar... oh wait, wrong song. tinkle, tinkle, in the car... no, still not right.
i gotta say, that was a long drive. but with the help of my ipod, very large sunglasses, and some very interesting road signs we made it through.























love my april!

dallas

had so much fun in dallas!
it was a good long drive, but with my prilly-poo at the wheel, it wasn't that bad.
we ate dinner friday night, went shopping on saturday, and church on sunday.
i know i said i would post more... but, there's a game today, and i'm antsy.

headed west

april and i are headed to dallas tomorrow. not sure about what time we're leaving. but i know it won't be three in the afternoon.
more about the weekend after it has happened.

when all else fails, wear the ugliest shirt you own.

this is the ugliest shirt i own.

after spending too much time wondering what to wear yesterday, i saw this- and knew it was ripe for the picking.
it was fool proof. the perfect shirt for a friday.
i don't know how it got in my closet. goodwill? thirft shop? mom? no clue. i guess it grew legs and came to me. but- i decided it was a good day to make "wear the ugliest shirt you own day."
i wore the ugliest shirt i own yesterday- and got a few compliments. i was amazed. it brightened my day.

MY PHOTO IS BEING PUBLISHED!

so, i entered a photo contest, which i am now a SEMI-FINALIST in... with a chance to win $1,000 or $10,000. and the people sponsoring the contest sent me a letter letting me know that they have chosen my photo to be in a national publication called Endless Journeys to be published in winter 2008. and, I AM SO EXCITED!

how people read this junk, i'll never know.

this post brought to you in hindi, by blogger and me.

happy birthday(singular) to you(plural)

happy birthday mom- hope this one is as good as the last 8 years of 39th birthdays. just think next year you'll finally be evenly divisible by 2, 5, and 10- which will make those of us OCD in the family very happy. prilly poo- you're twenty, so am i. now neither of us are teenagers any more. weird isn't it? and in only 6 years we'll start to deny our age, just like our moms have for the past 20. :)



love you both
