time to update -

first of all - i LOVE that the fall is coming. i love this time of year - except that it gets dark at like 2:00, i swear.

last weekend we went to the condo and had a grand 'ol time.
my mom felt like it was time to update the retro styles in the condo.


my mom is quite the handywoman


the poor duck that came off the light switch


some of the new digs. my mom choose a really pretty color for the beadspread



later that night we couldn't figure out where this high-pitched NOISE was coming from. i thought it was the ceiling fan. the hubby-bubby thought there was a cricket in the room. i thought he was crazy - how would it have gotten in the condo??? turns out he was right and i was wrong.


there's the little sucker that made so much NOISE


did anyone know that crickets can be a clearish white color? i thought crickets were black. we couldn't find him cause he blended right into the drapes.


go get him hubby-bubby!!!


little sucker didn't want to let go


"should i shake him up a bit?"


see him way down there?



let's take a vote - would you drink something out of this tin?
how old do you think it is?
