The Wizard ..... Then and Now

I know, I know, it has been a long time since I have blogged but I think this will make up for it for all you Fred Savage fans out there. I remember as a kid watching on of Fred's first movies "The Wizard" back on one of our first VHS players. Recently, I was able to go visit the dinosaurs that Jimmy wanted to visit in C A L I F O R N I A. Here are some photos from the movie of what it looked like back in the late 1980's and what it is today.


The lunch box Jimmy carried all the way from Utah to California on their adventure.



Fred and Jimmy inside the dinosaur. Today there is a gift shop inside were this was filmed. I really should have taken some photos but oh well maybe next time.



The neck of the great beast.


Fred holding a family photo from the movie.


The main dinosaur now.


Dinosaurs then.


This one has been turned into a museum.


If you haven't seen this movie I would highly recommend it.

Guilty!

As many of you know I am a big MJ fan and have been following the trial of DR. Conrad Murray everyday. During the course of this trial I have learned a lot about the court system. I don't know many people would say this, but I am looking forward to my jury service come early December because of what i have learned while watching this case.

Some pictures from the ABC.com live streaming of this case.







New accessories for Dr. Murray!

I'm 5!

Happy Birthday Alex!
Glad you guys liked the glow sticks. Now you just need to hide your PJ's so Mason doesn't pee on them again. :)

B+A Forever

Here is a sneak peek of a few wedding photos I took for a close friend of mine a few weeks back. It was so great to meet you all!

Let's Play Ball!

Yesterday was the boys last T-ball game of the season. I knew that this was an event that I didn't want to miss. It was fun watching a bunch of 4 years run around and chance a ball and try to focus on the game.



Nothing like playing ball with your brother.

Deep in thought. Starwars? Baseball? Squirrels? Wrestling?



You look like a real pro big Al.


This is mason focusing.


Go Al!



Loving the batting hat.


Good job Mason! Way to score.

Yes, I am a woman of many talents.

I decided while in Florida that I needed to reupholster another couch and let the other one go. After finding an oldie but a goodie from the 50's on craigslist, I began the process of removing the old and making it new again. After a few weeks of staples (bought an air compressor) and some blood it is finally done.

I would love to hear what you think of the before and afters.

If you would like to know more about the process email me and I will be happy to share some of my secrets. :)

I would also like to give a shout-out to my Quality Control, John. Thanks for your help. Hope you learned something.
