my sister

my sister and roommate moved out of our townhouse two days ago.  she and her boyfriend are on an epic cross-country road trip to their new home san diego, ca!  steve, bert and i are missing them already, but we are very excited to have family in such a tropical destination!  vacation visits?  methinks yes!  we are wishing them the very best of luck on their drive (they may or may not have three uncaged cats roaming around their car).  power to you guys!

if you are interested, you are certainly welcome to follow along with their trip.

check out the blog they started!

no we don't live in siberia

one of my favorite ways to get through the miserable freezing unpleasantry that is winter has always been going to the beach on lake michigan.  it is so beautiful and peaceful to see the snow and ice along the shore, covering the pier.

surprisingly we weren't the only ones out there!  it was a really rejuvenating weekend trip... and... my good ol car hit the big milestone turn over of 100,000 miles!  we have a lot of great memories with this old girl, but there probably won't be too many more (i'm shopping around).

hope everyone had a as great a weekend refresher as we did!

in case you didn't know

steve and i have matching tee-shirts.

i had them made for us a while back for our three year anniversary.  they say: steve & becky est. 2009.

the other day we both ended up wearing them without planning it.

needless to say, it was awesome.

i love dis guy.
