no posting for a month means catching up. which i dislike.
so we'll do the condensed version, hit the major highlights, call it good & move on.
in the past six weeks we've....
gone to sadies with a fun group of kids:
& continued working on our "wood" coffee table book:
the parentals escaped to one of the most beautiful places on earth for rbc's 42nd birthday:
where they checked and, YEP. STILL IN LOVE:
we rocked out with one of the coolest bands on earth:
& dave grohl reinforced my theory about a not-so-hot guy turning SMOKING HOTwhen he knows his way around a guitar and a microphone:
we dressed like cats for halloween:
as well as hippies:
we embraced some crazy on the daddy-daughter date:
& chuckled over the continued creative spelling stylings of our mia:
(TRANSLATION: "hi, my name is mia. i am building a house for my family. it is going to be SASSY.")
but the best part of the past six weeks was having our grandparents return home to us:

thankful thursday
things i am thankful for this week:
**beautiful weather for a motorcycle ride. and a buddy who wants to get in on the action:
i think we look so natural:
**the fact that i may or may not have (allegedly) BEAT somebody in a game of words with friends who may or may not (allegedly) be in the photo above.
which might just be my greatest achievement, ever.
i place it right above marrying russ and birthing my four children:
**mia's fantastic spelling skillz:
(TRANSLATION: "this is an ice cream. it is strawberry. it is yummy.")
**that the 80's dream is still kept awake & alive by my 13-year old's school:
(on the downside, she came to me and described this outfit as "from the 60's". dislike.)
**baby libby's shopping skills.
she went right along to las vegas to search for a homecoming dress, and she couldn't have been any sweeter. or cuter. i think she might possibly be the actual cutest baby in the world.
here she is just chillaxing in the dressing room amongst the 400 dresses we tried on:
**when i find random old photos on russ's cell phone that i've never seen.
like these:
**that the good 'ole candy bar card never really goes out of style:

katie goes to homecoming 2011 with taylor hummel
katilyn went to her homecoming dance last saturday night with her good friend, jordan h.
i couldn't believe how beautiful she looked--it seems so not fair that she received only the good genes from both her father and i......but i'm so so happy for her that i can't even be mad.
her dress was beautiful, thanks to her aunt megan, who's impeccable shoping/bargain hunting skills came into play with a dress that was SEVENTY-FIVE PERCENT OFF:
& much love to joellen for once again making her look like an absolute princess:

7 lessons learned from madame tussauds wax museum
7 lessons learned from our trip to madame tussauds wax museum:
1. using the president's personal phone line is really no big deal:
2. stevekemp is still the world's greatest photo bandit:
3. ALL THE LADIES want to get married to george clooney:
4. george clooney tends to be a bit handsy. (but i really didn't mind.)
5. lindsay lohan is still not a great role model for the young girls:
6. mia ONLY wanted her photo taken with girls:
(thanks, kamwee for your awesome photography skills)
7. the dads really only wanted their photo taken with girls, too:

9 things we learned from our labor day weekend in las vegas:
1. friends accompanying last minute always make for better times. and better jazz hands:
2. it is still possible to milk out your 20th anniversary even 2.5 months after it happened at a surprisingly great new restaurant find:
3. mindi doesn't ever need to ride the new york new york roller coaster ever again in her whole entire life:
****UPDATE 2019 I AM POSITIVE THIS THING DIRECTLY EFFED UP MY ALREADY EFFED-UP SPINE!!!!!****
****UPDATE 2019 I AM POSITIVE THIS THING DIRECTLY EFFED UP MY ALREADY EFFED-UP SPINE!!!!!****
4. somehow it is possible that chandler will find the only feline in the entire madame tussauds wax museum:
(but we all wanted in on that action):
5. speaking of wax museums and roller coasters....
if you (allegedly) know somebody or are somebody (allegedly) that would be in possession of a counterfeit nevada driver license (again, allegedly) it just keeps paying off.
like in the form of half-off wax museum tickets & free re-rides for all ten persons in your party on the coaster:
7. waking up to this view never seems to get old:
8. seeing this view is the reason why we keep doing it:
