Tending to the progeny

I took a serious hiatus from these people. In fact, I thought of never returning. But return I did and, to my chagrin, I found that they are even more house-bound than ever. Luckily I missed out on the family trip to South Dakota. Good lord people. You really need to work on your itinerary.

Olympics!

I decided to go to the Olympics in British Columbia. I thought that I would appreciate the international flavor, and maybe score an athlete;) Instead, I ended up ringing a cowbell on the ski slopes. While doing so was uncouth, I enjoyed it.

While in Vancouver, I realized that I look good with the Canadian flag.

There is nothing to do at hockey games, but take pictures of me.

Don't I look fabulous?

Here I am pretending to be interested in the game. Again, Tamara decided to match her scarf to mine (see the Europe photos). Who can blame her? I'm such a style maven even at boring hockey games.

Europe, part II

My life has been so busy that I haven't gotten around to posting the rest of the photos from my trip to Europe last October. Here they are:

I plan to get married in this church.

What a majestic view...

Look at the tiny back hoe in this photo. No wonder these Europeans can't get anything done! Socialists...

This bucksome woman terrifies me a bit. Who would make a ceramic sculpture of her?

And, while I'm at it, who puts a ceramic lobster in a museum!? The Germans need a little more taste.

I may have over-indulged on the desserts just a little bit...

Cruise to the Statue of Liberty

I recently jet-seted off to New York City for a series of fabulous parties.

Here I am in front of the Brooklyn Bridge. I think I am way more attractive than this hunk of stone.

Here I am with the Statue of Liberty. I am so glad that I got to see it on a classy, double-masted sailboat, with cocktail in hand, instead of with those huddled masses yearning to be free...

I look better in this light.

The food at the party was to die for.
