Yea! Pictures!

Today has been a fantastic day of laziness. This week Tim and the rest of the Revolution crew were in Vegas this past week planning out the rest of the year. They were supposed to head to Seattle for a conference and then hit Vegas on the way home, but their flight became delayed, they missed the connecting flight in St. Louis to Seattle and thus were going to miss one full day of a two day conference. The same conference will be in the Carolinas this fall and they plan to try again at that time. So instead they headed straight for Vegas and a week of planning. They had some fun along the way...see Tim's fun below:

I spent the day (after taking Pug to the vet and then picking up some Soy Formula for LJ) finishing Julie & Julia. It's about Julie Powell and her trek to cook all of the recipes from Mastering the Art of French Cooking by Julia Child in one year. She tracks it all via a blog and gains popularity as she goes. The book was spawned from the end of the project and there is currently a movie in the works. I really enjoyed the book because it made me laugh and it made me want to attempt the things I think of as impossible. I hope I can pass these things along to LJ. So many times I hear about parents telling there kids, "Well, that's a great idea honey, but we need to be realistic." Heck, I experienced it a little just figuring out my major in college - Yeah, we know you want to be a writer, but you need to think about a real job...Now, I don't regret getting a degree in Communications, nor do I regret where I'm at right now, but sometimes I wonder what it would've been like if I'd gone a different direction...maybe majored in something like English or Literature...so here's to a great summertime read. If I've still got it on me, I'll try to bring it to the Kalvin Family Reunion...

So I've promised lots of pictures and now I will deliver...and maybe a few videos as well:)
