So, my fiancee and I are getting married in June. He has 8 groomsmen lined up and I only have one bridesmaid. So, I need some girls who are attractive and around my age to stand up in my wedding. You can be single or taken. It doesn't matter....you just have to be hot. But, not hotter then me. Email me for more information. The wedding will be in Madison and you won't have to pay for a thing.

Hope to hear from you!

The Labradoodle Update

Christopher and I were actually in town at the same time this weekend and it was pretty laid back....(except the part in between when Jake and Kate Paddy's wedding happened)...(O, and that trip to the doggy emergency room when we thought Georgia swallowed a piece of glass)......but all-in-all, a great weekend! Here are a few highlights of our dog...hope you enjoyed the fabulous weather this weekend too!

Full steam ahead, Cap!
sidenote: (This was pretty much the only part of Lake Bisteneau that had not been overtaken by Salvinia...for those who havent seen it, it is basically a green sheet of plants across the lake.....so sad.)

No mom, seriously, I wasn't kidding when I said I didnt like the water:


Yes, Georgia, that is really funny:


I swear, if I had real fingers, I would SO turn down the volume on that TV so I could catch some zzz's:

I swear this dog really sleeps like this. Too funny!

Red Headed Baby News!!!!

So I realized I havent posted anything in awhile when I visited my page and found my celebratory post regarding Cinco De Mayo! But lots has happened in the interim! The most important though is that Kristen and Kyle Blair found out that they are going to have a sweet baby GIRL!!! Everyone is very excited and cannot wait to meet her. So to help celebrate the fact that I foresee some red hair in the near future..here are some hilarious red headed baby pics!

That could be cool if she was really happy like this baby:


But Im also hoping that she will be happy and FAT like thisbaby:


And I just wanted to add this one because it was really cute:


Well, either way she will be in good company....
Did you know that I too am I redhead? Yes, I know this explains alot...And to prove it, I have posted a few of my own 'redheaded baby shots'...Enjoy!:



Kristen should be VERY impressed that I managed to make the post about her baby, end up being about me! Thank you very much!

Happy Cinco De Mayo!!!

Cinco De Mayo Quiz!:Where did the phrase, 'Cinco De Mayo' come from?...

a) A large cargo ship that sunk, while carrying mayonaisse
b) Mexican intelligence code for 'Swine Flu'
c) A random date picked by our friendly neighbor to the South as a day to celebrate the margarita or
d) Some boring history story

And the answer is.......(drumroll)


A: Who cares? After about five margaritas and eating your body weight in chips & salsa, they could all be true! The question is...where the hell am I going to find one of these outfits before tonight's festivities!!?



What fantastic use of ribbon.
Sidenote: Is that beaver-cousin in the center alive? and does it have a hat on?But more so, how do you train a beaver-cousin to sit like that? and wear a hat? That would be awesome for Georgia to learn.

So here is my favorite Mexican, Chuy, from the Chelsea Handler Show:

Ola everyone!

Doma Arigato, Mr. Roboto.....Bao Bao International Food Market

So I was thinking about where I could possibly go to get some jasmine tea in this city (dont judge, just google it) and happened to be driving by Bao Bao International Food Market, Im assuming you pronounce that one Bow, Bow, ....anyway, I went inside and was really impressed. The place is not so pretty, but they have everything asian you would ever want, frozen and ready-made or raw (whichever you choose) and ready for you to take home. They had seaweed salad, potstickers etc. and most of it is flown in from overseas, so theres a 90 percent chance your getting the real thing. If you ever wanted to try and make your own sushi, he's got it....and he said he would take the time to show you how to make it!

They have hot food cooked there also. The owner told me he sells to most of the asian restaurants here in town! So save your money going out, and try something fun at home!P.S. dont forget the SAKE! Now heres a zen garden, so you can Chillax:

What an intelligent quote, Christian.

"She's really fierce. She's like one of the fiercest people I've ever met, and that's a big deal 'cause I've met some fierce bitches up in my life!" - Christian Siriano, Project Runway contestant, on Heidi Klum

What You Talkin Bout Willis?

That baby gives fierce face!

Frank Plays Nice.

The other day, Georgia's friend Frank came over to visit. Frank is a doberman and is scary as hell, but in actuality, hes pretty sweet. I tried not to get to close with the camera for fear of my limbs being eaten off, so I hope you can enjoy what I got. By the way, his name is Frank Sour.....doesn't that sounds like your granfather? or a really good attorney? either way, I wouldn't mess with him.
Here's a really cute picture of Georgia and Frank, it looks like they are gabbing on about something in dog language, maybe who's owners butt smells better?:

Rheil Designs

This is a congratulatory post to Christopher's oldest brother and wife, owners of the interior design firm, Riehl Designs. They competed on HGTV's Designers Challenge and won the design job for a house in West Palm Beach. The show aired last week and they did such an amazing job on the home! Unfortunately I do not have the show's code yet so I will post that later, but for now, here is the homepage of their website, a few photos, and a link as well. Check them out for some fabulous eye candy.

Herbs the Word

So when things get slow around here (like when you are waiting on your job to start) you begin to get a litte stir crazy and you start to do things you wouldnt normally do, hence the new herb garden:


Yep, this little beauty was created with my bare hands ladies and gentlemen....let the growing commence.

You probably dont know him, but you should.

Secret Eat Spot...Lila's On Olive Street

On the way to the lake a couple of weeks ago....Christopher took me to a restaurant I had never heard of before for an espresso. I think Lilas has been around for a while but this was my first time tasting this goodness. We sat down in front of window (to watch the vehicle) and had our espresso and I had a snickerdoodle. We decided that we loved this place so much that we wanted to try lunch there.

When we came back later that day, we grabbed two magazines that the owners conveniently provided and sat down for lunch. We spent the next two hours just hanging out, flipping through mags, and having some soup & sandwiches. The people are nice and you feel right at home. I highly recommend the Chicken Pesto Melt or anything really. Check it out if your in the mood for something new!!

Labradoodle.....Fun to say, Fun to look at

What better way to kick off this site than pictures of my funky Labradoodle...Georgia Brown! .......She inspires me daily....to not get another one. I kid, I kid. Anyway, your welcome!
