I *heart* You!

Today is my hubby’s 28th birthday. While he is not here with me, I decided to bake some cupcakes and decorate them with his favorite colors…and school. You see,  ever since we’ve started dating, I drew pictures of us. Picture of us eating, flying, driving, making fun of each other, cleaning… everything you can imagine! So, I thought, why not draw on cupcakes? Genius, right?

Well, my plan would have worked if I was an amazing artist and baker. But I’m not. So this is what he is going to get.

I love you babe! Happy Birthday, and I hope to be there for many more!

July 11, 2009 - 11:28 am Michele - You two are so fine. xoxo

Randomness in the Koontz Garage

I am almost never in our garage and basically have no clue what goes on in there, but I would like to share one of the knick knacks I’ve uncovered. I actually find these things pretty amusing. Especially the amount of junk we own.

 This is my favorite.

 Hilarious.

What’s in your garage?

July 15, 2009 - 10:43 am Galen - I love it!

July 11, 2009 - 11:30 am Michele - Jeff's office, 5 bikes, a wagon, a trailer, and a bunch of stuff. :)
