A Very Busy Month

Hello to all and our sincere apologies for taking so long to update this site. Pat and I have been busier than ever trying to keep up with work, school and celebrating the many birthdays, weddings, new births and family visits that we've had the past few weeks. Plus...we just realized that we have a baby coming in three months!!! We have some organizing to do..

We'll let the photos do the talking for us.

We kicked off the month celebrating the upcoming nuptuals of Simon and Allison. Allison was treated to an entire weekend of festivites, but my tired, pregnant body could only keep up with two. Here are the photos from the bridal shower.

Suzy and Shannon

The Great Closet Rehab
After seven years of marriage and to make more room for the baby, Pat and I decided we were at a point in our relationship where we could handle sharing a closet. We dismantled the old "system" and came up with a new one thanks to the friendly lady at the Container Store. Afterwards, we BBQ'd to relax and celebrate.

The finished product.

Miss Mirabelle Ruby Archer
Our friends Annie and Harry welcomed their daughter Mirabelle into the world, and we had the opportunity to meet this sweet litttle girl earlier this month.

Shannon's 30th!!
We celebrated Shannon's 30th Birthday two weeks ago and per usual, ate very well....

The Grants visit the Orient...sort of.
My parents flew in from Florida for a short visit and we took them to Chinatown for dinner.

The Rehearsal Dinner last weekend.
A quick photo of Critical Mass cycling outside my office before heading to Allison and Simon's rehearsal dinner....

Shannon's boyfirend Fuji takes his role as best man very seriously and indicates that he will be standing on the other side of Simon on Saturday.

The bride-to-be gets some insider tips on marriage from Carrie.

It's just such a shame that we don't enjoy eachother's company....
