Carter-Cayson Engagement Party

Last night was Ben and Ev's engagement party at the always beautiful Alford Home. We had a blast! I'm super excited about the wedding and feel so honored to be a part of it! This is just a few photos from the night.

Boy's Best Friend

Sam and Ty have grown up together and just LOVE each other. I walked in Sam's room last night to check on him before bed and found Ty in the bed with Sam. It was so sweet...He usually sleeps in his kennel but we sometimes treat him to a "Ty's choice" night! And he chose to sleep with his Sambo. He stayed there all night until Sam woke up the next morning. Ty looks a little creepy with those shinin' eyes in the photos...but trust me...he's way less menacing than he looks! We love our pup...even when he stinks and steals food out of the kitchen!

What your ipod says about you!!!

So there is a guy who recently conducted a study referred to as "SAT scores vs Music You Listen to" to conclude if there is any correlation between the music a person listens to and their intelligence. Turns out there IS...

Of course the brightest markers in the box listen to Beethoven:-) I was pleasantly surprised to see that Sufjan Stevens, Guster, Muse, and Norah Jones all are listened to by high-scorers! Death Cab for Cutie (my FAVS) were also at the top of the scale!!! I guess I'm doing really well!

What artists/bands are listened to by the lowest scorers you might ask????
Kenny Chesney, T.I., Beyonce', and Justin Timberlake...and ofcourse DEAD LAST is Lil' Wayne! I laughed out loud and was not the least bit surprised;-) Want to check it out??

Just like brother and the Water Goddess

Baby boy Chap want to be JUST LIKE his big brother! The other morning he went to Sam's room and swiped his robe he wears every morning when it's "too cold" to get out of bed. (yes, we have a frigid home) It was so sweet...he came to me wanting me to tie it like brother does. So funny! So he walked around the house for a couple of hours wearing his big brother's robe. I guess I'm going to have to find one in Chap's size!

As you all know from previous posts...we have a sweet little kitty who is obsessed with water! Yes, she is still present for every bath or shower taken in our home...watching diligently...fascinated by the water. Lately, Lily has taken up the sink in mine and Chivas' bathroom as her bed. It's like she worships the faucet...waiting for that heavenly liquid to flow out! And yes, you can turn on the water and she stays in the sink. Maybe we should re-name her...Lily the Water Goddess. So funny...we love her.
