Why you should never talk about anyone behind their backs

Vesper, having a couple of moments alone from her parents while in Idaho, composes a text to Isabel:

My mom hated the sexy mermaid onesie. It was SOO AWESOME!!

Vesper presses send. She thinks about how she doesn't really remember putting Isabel's phone number in. When she looks up the text, to her horror she realizes she put in her mom's phone number instead of Isabel's!

Panicking, she calls her little sister, Twiggy:

Twiggy: Hello?

Vesper: YOU MUST GET MOM"S PHONE! I SENT HER A TEXT I DO NOT WANT HER TO READ!!!!!! YOUR MISSION IS TO GET HER PHONE AND DELETE IT!!!!!!

Twiggy: OK!

Twiggy, able to get whatever she wants from Vesper's parents, tells Mom that she must use her phone and runs outside to Vesper.

Twiggy: Mom was wondering what's going on ...she knows she got a text.

Vesper: OK, I'll just text her my order for lunch really quick

Disaster averted, Vesper realizes that she shouldn't talk bad about people any more, or at least not send the bad talking text to the person it is about.

Here comes the bride.....

I know that you are dying to here about our recent trip to Florida to see my family and also see my sister get married. So here is a photo journey of how it went!!!



Arrgh!! A pirate baby shower complete with strawberry pirate cake!!



The Mitt Mobile.....you're just going to have to wait for Gawain's post about it...which should be soon.





Seeing "Mom" and her beautiful children!


Gawain with "Mom's" girls. He had fun playing with them while Mom and I chatted. He's also about to get slimed by their mastif/great dane mix.


Mom and I belly to belly. Yes I know I'm huge. Everyone I encounter is horrified to find out I still have approximately two months to go.



We had some interesting times with Minnie the pillow. She decided to kiss The Belly,


Beware of snakes,



And hang out in a tree at a rest stop on the way up to Atlanta for my sister's wedding.



While in Georgia, my brother went a little crazy with so many wedding things going on.


The Belly also went a little crazy and tried to attack my little sister.



And I was excited to be the knocked up matron of honor and go get my nails and toes done in a spa chair with a delish dark color on the hands and a french manicure on the toes for $33! Damn Georgia and their cheap prices!!!



My gorgeous Bride sister and her attendents


My gorgeous Bride sister and her new husband, laughing about how she told him in a hurried card that she "can't walk down the aisle" to him.


Me apparently trying to eat my new brother in law's face?
(I just follow this mantra: Give The Belly what it wants)

In all it was a tiring trip, but lots of fun to see my family and friends!!!

In Which I Act Like a 3-year old

I just thought I would post some pictures I made with my 9-year-old Cousin Soccerboy. Whenever Vesper and I head over to Kirkland to see our extended family Soccerboy begs either of us to go off and play video games, watch TV, or other nonsense. I usually turn him down in favor of talking with my relatives but on this occasion I was intrigued by Big Apple's mac book and the crazy contortionist pictures that could be taken with it. So I sat down for 5 minutes and did my worst. He (and apparently I am too) is quite the silly one. (My cousins Big apple and Horsey also make an appearance in the 3rd picture) The 2nd picture is by far my favorite of the group. It's fairly disturbing.

Pomp and Circumstance

Well, Last week I was able to go home and hang with the fam. Home for me is in Lake Worth, FL, and oh what a glorious place it is! My parents live 15 minutes from a great beach and 20 min. from an AWESOME beach. Its usually sunny and warm. I really really really LOVE to visit my family the most though because I get to see them! I usually only get to see them for 5-7 days every year. Sometimes its hard not being able to see them very often, sometimes its not, but I'm always reminded of how much I truly did miss them once I get home to fl.

This particular visit was warrented due to the fact that my little baby brother was graduating from high school. It still blows my mind that he is of graduation age! Any way, so I get to fl the first day and my poor dad is trying to finish the yard. He just had a patio put in and the patio people had made a huge mess of the yard and had messed up the sprinkler system. So guess who got to clean up after the patio people...thats right his lovely children! ANyway, so the first day sucked like crazy (8 hours of manual labor is NOT my idea of a vaca). Next day, beach time! I finally got to go with my sister and her boyfriend and I totally toasted the back of my legs but still got not burned color elsewhere. Next day was the graduation. For a graduation class of 500+, an hour and a half graduation was suprisingly short and sweet. Some pics to capture the moment:


My littlest sis and I being bored



The smartest 18 year old I know (except for maybe the validictorian of his class...a 5.0 GPA??who knew??)

So we had a huge awesome party for my bro that night (by the way, its worth mentioning that after 8 hours of manual labor to pretty up the yard had been accomplished for said party, it rained and no one was able to go outside and enjoy the awesome patio and even more awesome yard) and the next day......DISNEY WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Disney World is my absolute positively most favorite place on earth. I could go a gazillion times and never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever be tired of it!!!! I'm gettin all giddy just writing about it. It truly is the happiest place on earth and dreams really do come true there. Anyway,we went to Epcot and it was totally awesome. The weather was perfect! The crowd control was perfect!! it was just a great time!!! Even more fun was searching for "hidden Mickeys" which is my favorite thing to do at the parks. Here are some of the highlights, in pictures, of the fun:


hooray for mickey!! also check out my blue shirted sisters boob job!



an infamous "hidden mickey" that I found with out the aid of the guide


my most favorite disney princess ever: Sleeping Beauty aka Princess Aurora aka Briar Rose



Me gettin eaten by Bruice the great white shark



Holding up Spaceship Earth with jets of water shooting out of my hands



I sure wish Gawain liked Disney world as much as I did so we could spend every vaca there. So I'm done boring you with my travels but here are a couple of pictures of my littlest sister and I at the beach:

Me about to get totally wiped out by a huge wave (it doesn't look that big but I went head over heels face first into the water)

My littlest sis and I enjoying a last couple of minutes together before I leave for the airport
