donut date

declan has been talking about donuts with sprinkles lately ever since reading a new curious george book where george eats donuts. so i decided we needed to have a donut date this morning, it wasn't really that hard of a decision!

don't mind the double band-aid on his wrists, there is no injury just a current band-aid phase.


fun new print, questionable message

tim and i saw this poster in the gift shop while on our vacation to the beachwalk resort back in june. we thought it would look neat in our basement which is navy and red, plus it would be a reminder of our trip. i finally got a frame and hung it this morning so here is the result. i think it looks pretty cool.

upon purchasing it, we noticed something kind of peculiar about it! can you guess?





so if you study the close-up you can see that this might be a poster depicting an "alternative" family. where is the daddy? and why does the mom look so butch? anyway, we still bought it figuring it would be a funny conversation piece, and most people don't even notice the peculiarity at first glance unless we bring it up! considering the location was such an idyllic, midwest resort built for families, it is an ironic message, "beachwalk, the way life should be"... without daddies!
