si, exactamente!

These tell me I need to be hanging out with more people from Buenos Aires.





Thank you, Janaya and Burton, for sharing these treasures with us!

nj

I needed some sister time, and Doug was kind enough to oblige. So we made a three-day weekend and headed North.

We stayed at the Meyersons' new house, and loved, loved, loved the new place!

We played with some of the cutest kids around,


proved that Batman could indeed dominate Superman (although he sure put up a good fight),

tuckered out one baby,

and tried relentlessly to get another baby to stand (Doug may have been obsessed).


It was very, very fun, and just what I needed. Cyd and Jenn also hooked me up with an infinite amount of maternity clothes (a compilation from all four of my sisters... thank you!!) and other various baby items. I'm quite spoiled.

Thanks for another great visit, ladies!

finally growing up...

After 10+ years of operating a vehicle, I finally get how to use cruise control.

Better late than never.

the fishing series

Please enjoy Doug's catches, none of them large enough/edible enough to keep.

Caught on the second cast!


Bit bigger... not bad...


Dangit.


Not shown: The fishing/game warden dude checking Doug's fishing license, and then walking back past us a little later carting someone away. We assume they were taking the man to prison for not having a fishing license. Don't mess.

lake anna

Sunday night we camped with some friends up at Lake Anna. We had a sweet campsite right near the lake, so on Monday Doug fished, I read, and we played on the beach. The weather was perfect, the company was delightful, and I inhaled a ton of roasted marshmallows. Now THAT is a successful camping trip.

It's only an hour away, so you better believe we'll head back there again.

We neglected to take any pictures until Monday, so these few will have to do.





A snake I almost stepped on. Fun fact: I h-a-t-e snakes and Doug loves them, yet I'm ALWAYS the one that finds them when we're out and about. It kills me.

11 p.m. kickoff

Who would want to play football at 11:00 p.m. on a weeknight?!


Oh yes, this guy would. Let the intramural football season begin!

new profile pic

Late last night I informed Doug we needed a new picture for our blog profile.





And those were the good ones. I think we'll try another time...
