A Tribute to the Real Winner

So... it's a crock that Haley Reinhart wasn't in the American Idol finale.  I like Lauren and Scotty, but come on.  They aren't even on the same level!  In celebration of the should-be winner, here is my favorite Haley performance of the year.

House of the Rising Sun... This is when she became my favorite.

It was a good run, girl!  You deserved it.

Wordless Wednesday: The Schooner

Dust Bowl Lanes

We had a great weekend with friends!  It started out with a visit to the new bowling alley downtown, Dust Bowl Lanes.  We will be frequenting this place!

Here's some pics of the super awesome spot.  It features these super cool authentic (looking at least) scoring tables, really bright colors, and a patio (shared with Dilly Deli) with Bocci Ball!

 

 

I'm not sure if The Big Lebowski playing on repeat or the learning to keep score was my favorite part.  We all had a turn at the scorers table, and thanks to Andrea and iPhone, we are all pros now!

Service was fantastic, and the food was extra yummy!  I've never seen so many varieties of tots on a menu before...

We are TOTALLY bowling pros now.  :)

See you soon, Dust Bowl Lanes!

Wordless Wednesday

Birthday at Mom's house

Four Eyes

Thanks to this year's allergies from hell, I'm having serious contact issues.  Good thing I got these bad boys a few weeks ago!

These are definitely an ode to my Granny, who rocked some sweet cat eye-shaped glasses back in her day.  While I'm not gutsy enough to wear something quite that dramatic, I certainly had her in mind when I bought these.  :)  Kinda nice to give the ole eyes a rest!

Birthday Ice Cream Social

My coworkers are AWESOME!

And how perfect is the card?!

 So fun!  And my birthday worked as a great cover for Candace's and Kaci's ice cream bar party. ;)
