More from Mom's wedding weekend!

 
Let's start the wedding weekend pictures by all laughing at my brother Zach who got stuck in a tree.
He couldn't get down because he said there was too much pressure from people watching. There were 3 people watching. Ha!
Here is the bride to be! How cute is she?
The do!
That is MY mom!
Take a bride break for grandma duties.
My little family.

My godmother and my mom. They have been best friends for 30 years.



Attempting to take a family picture...
And again.
It will have to do : )
My mom and her new sister-in-law. Fun random fact - my sister-in-law has the same name as me. First and last name that is. My mom's new name is the same as her sister-in-laws maiden name.

The magic that is Float On...

Instead of sleeping in this morning I decided to head to the gym. As I was on my way I saw those blue and red flashing lights behind me. Crap. The officer came to my window and asked for my license and registration. He asked if I was in a hurry this morning? I was going 57 in a 40. I said no and apologized, knowing it would do no good. I've never been someone with the ability to talk myself out of a ticket. I've never been someone who gets off with just a warning. Plus, not only was I speeding, but I had left the house in such a tired hurry, (as not to wake up Charleigh) I left my bag with my wallet and ID at home. (I know, I know. I'm a jackass) 

So I'm sitting there on the side of the road waiting for the multiple tickets that are sure to come, and "Float On," by Modest Mouse comes on the radio. What are the chances? (The song obviously has a special place in my heart) After 5-10 minutes the officer comes back and gives me the first warning of my driving career and basically tells me to slow it down. Thank you officer. Lesson learned. Float On did it again...

Zimmerman, T-shirts, and swim

The George Zimmerman trial is underway and I am obsessed. I'll probably talk about it a lot around here so stick with me. Zimmerman is facing life in prison and is only 29-years-old. I forget that fact because he looks 39. Zimmerman shot and killed 17-year-old Trayvon Martin and if you haven't heard about it, you live in a cave. Today they are going to be arguing if the five calls Zimmerman made to 911 will be allowed in court. I absolutely believe they should be. In the calls you can hear the 911 operator tell Zimmerman that they (the police force) does NOT need him to follow Trayvon. They can handle it. He disregards what the operator says and continues in pursuit of Trayvon.

I believe George Zimmerman is guilty of 2nd degree murder. I don't think Zimmerman is a monster, but he killed a young boy and should pay the price.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

A new study shows that chicks dig dudes in white T-shirts. Seriously. Women found men in white T-shirts 12% more attractive according to this article.

"The study involved showing 30 female undergraduates, aged 18 to 25, images of five different male body shapes and asked them to mark their perceived attractiveness and health."

And the dude in the white T-shirt won. Interesting, no?
I personally think a shirt like this is attractive. Ha!
Charleigh start swim lessons this Saturday. She took them last year at this time, but she was only 5-6 months old. She just floated around in our arms. I fear this go round could end up in tears, screaming, and bad looks from other pool goers. (Is that how you spell "goers?" Should there be a hyphen in there?)

Conan corrects Jennifer Garner


That awkward moment where you incorrectly correct someone on national television and then get schooled. Ha! This is why I am not on national television. It would happen to me all the time. And I don't want to steal Jennifer Garner's thunder ; )

Charleigh's New Motorcycle (Video)


Should I be concerned for her future? ; )
