Reasons To Celebrate

On Saturday afternoon, in the middle of the most hectic day of the week in the Vaicius household, a little moment of bliss arrived courtesy of my rockstar cousin, Mary Cox. I mentioned that I wanted some parade watching shirts for the kiddies and without hesitating MCB made my wishes come true. I am ready to get the ladders set up and catch some beads. I wish I could wear one of these:


The pictures do not do MCB's impressive work any justice. I have been all thumbs with the camera lately and have been feeling uninspired from an artistic standpoint. It is a lack of time, creativity, and energy, not subject matter, that is hindering me and I hope that will change once the parades start rolling so I can do a better job of documenting life around here.

There was another celebration last Sunday when the Saints won the NFC Championship. I should dedicate an entire post or two to that night and that game, but I am still physically and mentally exhausted by it. One day I will explain why we were watching it on the puny kitchen t.v. Okay, there's no real science behind it, but it is possibly the reason they won.
