It's My Blog And I'll Be Boring If I Want To

I know that my readers (thanks Mom & Dad!) might be wondering why I haven't posted in a while. Well, it's because absolutely nothing interesting has been happening around here. I suppose there have been a couple of kitchen disasters that you can read about on my other blog if you like train wrecks. And we did have a leak fixed in our basement (our handyman is named David Beckham -- I guess that is mildly interesting if you lower your standards -- but he does not look like or play soccer like THE Becks)

but he can definitely fix a leaky faucet, or a leaky basement as the case may be, better than the Real Becks.

Did I mention that Elizabeth is taking ballet this year? Here she is, decked out in her purple tutu:
Elizabeth does not have genetics working in her favor in the ballet department, seeing as David is the graceful one in the family and he's had both basketball and dancing-related injuries since we've been married. My parents claim that at my three year old dance recital, they took one look at me in my cute little teddy bear costume and my tutu and said to each other "she'll never be a ballerina." So the odds are stacked against Elizabeth, but let's hope she has fun anyway. She claims to be working on a "two-footed arabesque." Yup, that's my girl.
