Los Porchs

It started last year within our group from work as a result of our shared love for Step Brothers.  We spent so much time walking around asking if we had just become best friends, if we could put our bunk beds together, and asking when Shark Week was that we realized that we needed to have our very own Catalina Wine Mixer.  Behold.... Because summer gets to be a bit hectic with scheduling, we found a date and went with it.  It was a bit sad for us that some people couldn't be here this year, but we're sure that we'll catch them for the 3rd annual wine mixer!  This year's theme was "Boats & Hoes."  Costumes were encouraged:  I was a bit disappointed by the lack of creativity, though there was some interesting explanations!  Spent the morning cleaning up and preparing the scene; spent this morning nursing what can only be described as the worst hangover ever.  More on that later.  While I was getting ready, I put on some old-school vinyl Fleetwood Mac and

At least this area looks nice.... thanks to baby B!  The top of the fridge suddenly has other random crap... we went grocery shopping and it is apparently the new dumping ground.  Sigh.... better luck next time! Less than an hour after it being cleared off, Porch has successfully dumped more crap on the fridge!!!!   I'm sorry, I have to share our kitchen gnome... he's a college treasure & he just makes me smile.
