Happy 4th!!


Usually a day to remind us how awesome the US is. I couldn't imagine living anywhere else.. Well.  I take that back.  I could live in England.. Or Ireland. Or Japan.  Not Canada or Russia.

Egg that doesn't match my couch.

So.. I guess I should modify my original statement. I couldn't imagine being BORN anywhere else but the good ole USA.  We've got our problems, but they're white people problems. Like.. The color couch I want isn't available in the suede that's needed to match my Fabergé egg. DARN.


In other news - Fabergé eggs are hella ugly. I think I remember my mom watching QVC and ordering some ugly ass eggs. I wonder if she still has them. 


Also, it turns out that there is a whole website dedicated to White People Problems. Enjoy, thank me later. One that I've actually done: Check phone to see what time it is. Have to check it again because I wasn't paying attention the first time.






Another thing that I could do without in America? Jimmy Smits. Seriously. I hate that guy. Him and his perfect hair and adorable smile. SHUT UP JIMMY SMITS. Why has he hosted "A Capital Fourth" like eleventy billion times? And WHY did he change outfits like 6 times??? Isn't that sending the wrong message Jimmy Smits? I THINK SO.

Kody, da Tice's dog.

LAKE HOUSE Kenneth's parents (my inlaws!) have a house on a Lake. In addition to their normal one. Like a weekend beach house.. only it's on the lake. And there's no beach.  But there is a gorgeous house with a wall full of windows.  The weather was perfect and the activities were awesome. Well.. there were no activities.. Which meant relaxation. :) Which is exactly what we needed.  ALSO, they have a furry horse. Also known as a Bouvier des Flandres. It's HUGE. I'm kind of scared of big dogs. And he barked really loud at me when we came inside. After a little bit though he warmed up and decided he liked me. PICTURE. This is an old picture. He is even huger. Is that a word? I don't think so.  But I played fetch with him and I decided I liked him too.

Kenneth wants a big dog. I want corgis. A flock of them. THIS MANY. 




Ok maybe not quite this many.


But more than one or two. I will dress up as the queen for halloween and Kenneth will dress up as the STIG. Bonus points if you know who the Stig is.


But on a serious note. It was great to see some family.  It gets lonely up here in Cincinnati sometimes. I'm looking forward to seeing my parents in a few weeks! North Carolina again!




Hope you have a fabulous 4th full of rainbows, Jimmy Smits, Steve Martin's banjo band, firework wizard duels (THOSE ARE SO UNSAFE.).
