Jan and Jeff's wedding




Janet and Jeff had a lovely wedding at their house in Santa Fe. Those are my grandparents walking her down the... well, out onto the front lawn. And, there are Lily and Rhea setting out a rug so that Jan's shoes wouldn't sink into the muddy grass. It had been raining all weekend but it stopped just for the afternoon and evening. What luck!

a joke for those of you online daters out there

THE NEW BIRDS AND BEES

A little boy goes to his father and asks "Daddy, how was I born?"

The father answers: "Well son, I guess one day you will need to find out anyway! Your Mom and I first got together in a chat room on Yahoo. Then I set up a date via e-mail with your Mom and we met at a cyber-cafe. We snuck into a secluded room, where your mother agreed to a download from my hard drive. As soon as I was ready to upload, we discovered that neither one of us had used a firewall, and since it was too late to hit the delete button, nine months later a little Pop-Up appeared that said:

You've Got Male!

how much is too much?

i have a question for you guys... my readers... would 300 pictures of our trip to germany be too much to send in an ofoto album?

as you know i love taking pictures, and i take lots of them, and some of them are pretty good if i do say so myself. while in berlin and leipzig over an 8 day period i took over 600 pictures. now, listen here, i spent a lot of time this morning whittling down those 600+ pictures to 300, and you must know it was difficult. but, now i'm afraid that 300 is still too much to send out in one album.

therefore, as of now, i will need you to make a special request if you want this album emailed to you. a few of you will get it anyways whether you want it or not, but the rest of you will need to make a specific request to see it. i really don't want to bombard anyone with more pictures than they can handle.

but, i must make one final little plug here and say that we had SUCH a great time and saw LOTS of cool things... the pics are super rad if you have the time to scroll through them all.

Happy August 1st!

July was an awesome month... let's hope that August can live up to it!
