• About:

    I swore I would never drive a minivan, so I went through a bit of an identity crisis when we finally broke down and bought one. But now I've decided to get over myself, and fully embrace my life as a suburban, minivan-driving, Mommy Blogger. Since my family rocks, and my family and the minivan are a package deal, I am hereby declaring that My Minivan Rocks!

    This blog is about so much more than my minivan; It's about the three beautiful kids who fill the carseats in my minivan. Christian and I were married in May 2003. After fertility treatments, our son Noah was born to us in January 2006. Our daughter Zoe was born in November 2006 in Phu Tho, Vietnam, and came home when she was four-months-old. Colin is our baby boy. He was born in July 2008 and came home when he was two-days-old through domestic adoption.

    We never planned to have our children THIS close together (we are probably the only people on the planet who can say they had two adoptions happen more quickly than expected), but we are enjoying our crazy new life!

Favorite Photo Friday – Bachelorette party

This is me before my bachelorette party in 2003. Notice the traditional bachelorette attire: veil, “Suck for a Buck” t-shirt, mini purse of $1 bills, and a pretty penis necklace.

 Bachelorette

 

Christian and I had our bachelor/ bachelorette parties the same night. We went out separately, and then our two groups met up later. By that time someone had added a pink feather boa to my bachelorette attire, so I was pretty hard to miss. So, I have to guess that my husband had a little too much to drink by the time we passed each other on a narrow staircase at the bar and HE DIDN’T EVEN NOTICE ME. Um, hello? I looked ridiculous, not to mention I was his future wife! I’m never going to let him live that one down.

  1. He was just being a good little groom and determinedly not looking at all the hot women that night, even if they did look ridiculous.

  2. That’s his new story, and he’s sticking to it. :)

  3. That is too funny. My daughter ‘79 had that t-shirt at her bachelorette party… suck for a buck, she made $150.00. They kept putting new life savors on when she would run out.

  4. In his defense, his eyes were mere slits and he had to focus on walking; thusly staring at his feet. That is why he failed to notice you. Trust me I was there.

  5. [...] Others photos from that day/ night may exist, but this is the only one anyone cared to share with me. They look like a respectable group of guys, don’t they? Well, don’t be fooled. This was early in the day. And I imagine this is when the drinking started, which would explain why Christian didn’t even recognize me by midnight. [...]
