weekend as a groupie... I mean band wife

Last weekend was full of excitement... I went on tour with the band, and I became the camera-ready-wife! Go figure, but hey, I had a good time hanging out with the older generation, seeing as I don't get nearly enough of that everyday at work.


Some of my friends did join me for the Saturday night show, and they were able to make Anthony smile and even laugh on "stage." For any of you who have seen him perform, you would understand... and for those who haven't, when watching him, you would think there was the world's smallest, yet most amazing sight on the table, wall, or any other inanimate object nearest to him. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to capture those smiling moments on tape or in a picture. I did record several of their songs by video, and I tried to upload it, but now 20minutes later, I'm not waiting anymore, so you'll have to settle for some pictures for now. Just for information, they sounded great, and hopefully I'll be able to share it with you some day.



The other exciting thing in my life... believe it or not, is my new vacuum, seeing as it is a robot!!! And much to Anthony's dismay, it actually works to fight the dog hair and everything else we can't see! I love it! It does everything that I hate to do! Seeing as Anthony and I have different definitions of "clean;" I was doing the majority of the vacuuming; as a matter of fact, I think he has vacuumed once in the past 15 months we've lived in this house. But now after tonight I have to correct that because I just witnessed him vacuuming the garage!!! What do you think of that? But to give him credit, he does clean the bathrooms and take care of our food headed for the compost "pile."

I am off to work on our wedding/ honeymoon(s) scrapbook; I think I have a new addiction. With everything being online, I don't have to worry about if I have the right kind of paper, what if I mispell a word?, or "oh crap, I have to clean up this whole mess when I'm finished!" I have just about finished one from my bridal showers and bachelorette weekend... which all of the above makes me crack up laughing every time I look at it. Can't wait to share the finished projects; maybe by the time, mom picks a date for the open house in Houston... ha ha.

And I'm back.... just with a new name!

It's been a while... I got engaged and then disappeared from the blogging world. That is probably better seeing as I had a 1 track mind for a while. It was quite amazing how planning for one weekend of my life, could take up so much of my brain power. Now that it's all over, it was totally worth it because the weekend was awesome! The smiles on everybody's' faces in all of the pictures verify that point!


I know that my laugh is one that tends to cause people to turn and stare, while my friends signal that I'm too loud with the, finger over the mouth... shhhhh!!! But I made one discovery from all of the wedding pictures... I laugh with my mouth wide open! After all of these years it is a wonder as to how I haven't choked on a bug by now, but maybe the decibel rating is too high, even for the bugs!




Anthony has been traveling/ touring quite a bit with his band, Ernie Evans and the Southern Lite (www.southernlite.com). I have had a few weekends home alone, so this morning, I ventured out on my bike (12 miles round trip) for Earth Day at the St Augustine Amphitheater. It was an interesting combination of people and definitely a great place for people watching. There was one couple in particular that I couldn't pass up stealing a candid shot....

Check out the bird on the guys shoulder... that little thing could make some noise! I just didn't want you to miss the details. They were great!

Anyway. It has been a pretty great morning... went for a bike ride, ate a great fish taco at the local hole in the wall; all while totally avoiding the things I need to do around the house. Good thing there are 2 days in the weekend!



Hope all is well, and its good to be back.

Talk to you all soon.
