BAM

Yours truly installed a ceiling fan ALL by herself.  Didn't even have to call Dad (who was on Red Alert).  I watched this video to learn how to uninstall one, and after maniacally checking to make sure I had indeed turned the power OFF, I took down our old one and installed this bad boy we randomly spotted, and subsequently purchased, at Lowe's.

 And just in case you thought I was passing off a ceiling art installation as a fan that didn't actually work:

Mike did help me take it down and use different screws in the ceiling bracket.  Unfortunately the directions indicated to use the previous screws already in the housing box, which were crap and made the fan wobble.  NOT my fault.  So I consider it installed alone (but, in an effort to be full disclosure, Mike did help perfect).

I am Woman.  Hear me cuss up a storm while installing light fixtures, but appreciate my ability to follow directions implicitly.

Date Day

We went shopping. :-)

Target socks.

ON Flats.

 Best shirt EVER at Old Navy.

 Mike is not usually a fan of the ON...

 He got over it.

PHX, Gator Style

Gator makes a Friend:

Gator v Cactus:

"Can I eat him?.........I'm gonna eat him."

Me: Gator is learning to shoot.
Nar:  He's such a badass.

 Gator navigates.

 Gator conquers the desert.

I also think Gator was left at the PHX Sky Harbor...cause I can't find him anywhere!!!

Done!

In the visitor's locker room in the Stadium at Mile High...in the middle of a snow storm.

Calvin did a spot-on Matt Foley spoof.  Classic.

Fusion in '14

My very first sales rally...and I was responsible for planning the entire thing.  One down, one to go!

Be Afraid

Especially if you're a zombie hugging a hot girl.  Or the hot girl's boob.  Both shots are mine. :-D

Take a Hike

You can do that in Phoenix when it's January!

 Cacti!

 The Desert.

 Boys.

Danger Zone

Poor Jess was down for the count today, we think due to the previous day's brunch...Fiona was very sad with her on the chair.

 So the three of us let her rest and went shooting.

 For my first time I was pretty good!

 I attribute it to an intense focus on following directions.  Focusing on the target didn't hurt, either. :-)

PHX Day 1!

We ventured for brunch at Morning Glory Patio at The Farm.  So lovely, but the food was truly incredible!

We decided to spend the rest of the completely cloudless and beautiful day cooking, sunning, and enjoying adult beverages purchased at...

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeees!

 We did stop by to see the new temple.  Wow.

 Squeezed in a dog walk...

 And some puppy love!

Heading to PHX!

Finally going to see the Hudsons!!!

I decided to bring along Gator so I could regail Karley with all of his travel antics and adventures...
