Calling for help......

So in order to settle this "little disagreement" that Chris and I had yesterday afternoon, I pose this question to you:
Can a reclining sofa foot rest support more than one set of legs? (keep in mind that the two sets of legs that I speak of are long-john skinny and myself!) One of us has this totally irrational fear that more than one set of legs will cause the entire sofa to break and collapse....

**Chris told me that all my "cronies" would vote with me (perhaps that is because I am the rational one!)

That's NURSE Linzi, thank you very much

I just wanted to congratulate Linzi on finishing nursing school yesterday. I'm so proud of her reaching this accomplishment, and have been incredibly impressed with how hard she has worked over the past few years to achieve this. I'm also amazed with how much she knows...it's been fun to learn from her as we've studied together. She is going to be an amazing nurse, and you would consider yourself lucky to be one of her patients in the future (not that anybody wants to be a patient). Anyhoo, way to go Linz...I'm so happy for you!

This is how I imagine her graduation ceremony in June...I'll post some pictures then.

You know your husband is a med student when...

Your fruit goes from something to snack on to something to perform surgical procedures on...

I mean, human, banana, what's the difference right?

subliminal messages.....

My mom sent us an Easter package....I think she is trying to get us ready for parenthood or something, you know, keep a plant alive, hatch a fake chick in a cup of water....am I on the right track?

Third Annual Cake-off

So Easter weekend we went up against Kathryn and Dave again in our annual cake-off. Chris and I went into the competition very confident in our design....we were going to attempt a bunny actually standing up this year (inspired by Twinkies I saw at the store that I thought we could use as feet and hands). All seemed to be going well until we started frosting...and then the head started becoming a bit wobbly. Then we lit the whiskers on fire and, well, our bunnies face fell right off!

We had to admit our defeat, those Dodd's really pulled off some great cakes this year. Their cupcake chicks were my favorite. Aren't they so cute.


As you can see, Chris does not do well with losing....he had to eat his sorrows away.
Until next year Dodd's....we have some design tweaking to do!
