kidney infections, birthdays, and trips to minnesota

thankfully the kindey infection wasnt a kidney stone.

i leave this afternoon for good ol’ minnesota. where i will stay with cathy and eat much indian food and flavor ice and hang out with her kids and margie. and shoot some cool shots for her upcoming book. i am excited to experience some cold weather and actually have to wear a jacket. i had to buy gloves!

after elsie stays with me, i am so selling this puppy on ebay

what do you think? donna, ali, & cathy z have all slept on it. and elsie is coming in april. you think i could make a buck?

not to mention the actual fluids my children have spewed forth onto it.

someone out there would pay a pretty penny i bet. ;)

some more pics from my wonderful weekend with ali and lisa.
