Uh oh April

I´m out of the blasted country right when the best people have birthdays.

OR

Am I the smartest because I get to skip out on presents?

You decide.

April 18 - my special lady friend who will make the only banana bread i can eat and is constantly brushing my hair

April 19 - my unusually smart, poker playing nephew who wins the name game (Arrow? Come on!)

April 22 - my LHHS persian princess who makes me laugh so hard i want to introduce her to strangers

April 22 - my friend who was the bestest thing that ever came from being a Mod Bride

April 23 - my Mother Teresa on Speed sister who makes me feel like a slacker and understands that i need closet space

And these are just the ones I remember off hand. Are there more this week? Probably.

One more reason to love America

We love our snakes.


Just don't tread on us

Or divide us

Or step on us



Oh and there's Elvis



And also this is what we have at our bus stops



So wait - was that more than one?

Now do you want to know why I went to DC?

1. Trees.
There were other photos but they didn't have Stacey looking so pretty (Don't tell anyone but I've seen better cherry tree gardens, sorry America)




She constantly told me life was going to get better and brushed my hair
(and Yes @lisa, I asked for that hair style)



3. New Poses
You know how we like to find the perfect pose . . .


On a side note. . . why is this my go-to pose when people tell me to be funny?
Ugh, I need to practice being funny.


4. But the real reason I went to DC was to get locked out of a running car is a bad neighborhood on Easter Sunday with only Officer Glover there to save the day.

Guys, do you know why I love America?

I love America because our kids are born like this
And our first President was hot

With the best posture ever
I LOVE good posture


So I decided to get an annual pass to Mount Vernon - Washington's home

because I'm patriotic and they had the best gift shop ever.


Ok maybe Washington wasn't hot but I would have let him adopt me.



We had so much fun playing on the grounds we forgot to see the house
Seriously - we skipped the main house. That's what the annual pass is for.


Stacey had to show me how to work on a farm



and I think I did splendidly

Guys, do you know what DC taught me?


That I love Winston Churchill more than I thought.



I like him A LOT

Guys, do you like Art?

First.

Two Questions.

1.Does this look like a Matador?


Second.

2. Does this look like a Matador + bunny?



I've always been so grateful to my mom for teaching us to appreciate art.



This book came from her collection:



She made sure my nieces also had a love for all things Artsy



(if I had a job I would have bought every piece in this gallery/pizza parlor)


But nothing compares to my favorite Art


Baby Performance Art


This one is called, 'When Napoleon and Josephine became 1 Baby.'
