New Reads

I am always looking for new books to read (especially now that I have a nook- Thanks Carol and Hazen!) and love getting suggestions from others. So I thought I would share some books I've read recently that I have loved. There is nothing like reading a book and completely loving a character or feeling genuinely sad when it ends.

The Brief and Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao by Junot Diaz
The Help by Kathryn Stockett
The Art of Racing in the Rain by Garth Stein

Please leave any suggestions you have for me. Happy Reading!

Not very impressed...


Okay, that's enough. Let's go back in!

Baby got a brand new bob

We did it. We finally broke down and cut Lily's hair.

She was rockin' (as her hairdresser Shannon will attest to) a serious mullet. That's pronounced "muh-lay" according to Lance Bass on CNN's New Year's Eve coverage. Wait...... what? Lance Bass....... on CNN? Is the world ending? Is this the rapture?? Just kidding, let's just say I found it... peculiar. Well, I guess someone has to cover the scene in Las Vegas on a such a historical and pivotal occasion.

So now instead of her mullet- say it right!- she is sporting a sweet new bob and I love it. I kept one of her baby curls so I'll always remember them.



PS. Lance Bass is no Dr. Sanjay Gupta!

PPS. Can you believe the mouth on that Kathy Griffin?! What a broad!
