I’ll start out with some pictures for you, how’s that sound? My entire family is in town and I just love that. My brothers decided this was a good time to take down my parents roof and re-do it because they’re are awesome like that. The whole family is pitching in. Even me, I even wore work clothes and cut down branches off a tree, and moved shingles and swept insulation and put together things with nuts and bolts and washers and stuff. (Stuff being an official building term, of course.) In the meantime, Ariel and Racecar are very happy playing with their cousins. And Brian? Well, he’s in Massachusetts.
So, here are some pictures from the wedding and the roof project:
First, here’s a picture from the wedding of me with the best man.
And here’s one with the happy couple. And they’re so in love it makes my stomach turn a little. In a nice kinda way.
And my brother-in-law found this toad yesterday, he was working it for the camera. (the toad, not my brother-in-law)
Here are the worker bees who worked non stop all day and all night and at least one of my brothers is staying all week long and this is what he’ll be doing, all week long.
They finished up last night at about 11:20.
So, you may or may not notice, but this week my posting will be very, very light, between my family being in town, packing up my house for our move which is two weeks away, being a single mom for two weeks, work and laundry and work and laundry and mowing the lawn and eating bug bites and ice cream, I won’t be around as much as usual. But soon, (as in, say, August) I’ll be around a lot more!
Now to the winner!
Oh man, this was a fun contest wasn’t it? I loved reading everyone’s favorite songs. I noticed a lot of Johnny Cash, (who I love) and a lot of country music, too. But what I loved was seeing how almost all of the songs brought back some sort of memory for some of you and then you shared that with me, so this contest was very, very fun.
But the winner? She’s one lucky girl, her name is Amy (with a last name that starts with s), she does not have a blog and she has a hotmail e-mail address (I e-mailed you Amy!). Congratulations, Amy! Just give me your address and I’ll get this bad boy right out to you.
Check back later this week for a very green giveaway.

Beth,
You look so beautiful at the wedding. The dress is perfect.
I love all the pictures of your family.
I do have to say though. We Americans are very lucky to have suck good looking soldiers to protect us. You know I’m a sucker for guys in uniform.

Aside from having gorgeous brothers, you know what I love? I love seeing big happy families doing things together. I love seeing siblings getting along and having close relationships. What you guys are doing for your parents is truly beautiful.
And speaking of beautiful, you look stunning in that dress for the wedding. Truly.

I’m a big fan of your blog, and read it daily. I must say, this post was your best yet! HOLY shirtless men!! Wow.
I’m 31 and still single- If I sound like a pervert, I am.
I think that one picture is screen-server worthy, whew!
Nice work.
