Partied Out

Oh heavens.

I've hit the same rustic brick wall of blogging yet again.

The one in which we've had so much fun and been so many places and have so many pictures that the thought of blogging about them causes a brain power-down.

And then I think of the fun times I DIDN'T grab on my camera.

So instead of blogging, I painted my door for the third time this year.

I also sold our old plasma TV {which I am picturing right now at a pawn shop} and king mattress on Craigslist.

Actually, we listed the mattress for FREE to anyone who could come pick it up.

And they weren't even alarmed when it rolled rather burrito-like into the back of the car.

I may not be a smart man, Jenny, but I know that a taco-esque mattress given away for free has questionable future at best.

In the name of blog accountability, I'm just checking in to let you know I'll be back with all the vacay funnery.

Until then, here are a few pics from before we left. The kids had a great time at basketball camp. They both improved a ton and rocked the hoop on tournament day.


The {early} morning the kids left for Chicago, we kept running into this guy in the airport.

I finally had to take a picture the 7th time we ran into him, because Brad and I kept giggling at his SWIM TRUNKS.

6 a.m. on a Sunday. With a fanny pack.

I wanted so badly to ask him what un-missable swimming opportunity lay on the horizon at his destination. That is preparedness, people.
