We had the best time seeing all of our family and friends over the past couple of days. One of the many highlights was the time we spent with Jay's Big Brother, Nick (they have been friends since birth) his wife Nicole, and 22 month year old, Alex. Since our wedding the Bezansons have been living in Okinawa, Japan where Nick is currently stationed as a Marine. Life hasn't been the same without them around. Nothing could ever replace the time we spent together. We hope to get in some more visits before they leave for home in mid-December. Here are a few images of the most beautiful family around.
When in Maine, Jay and I managed to fit in some time to walk Baxter Blvd...it only took us 7+ years to get up the nerve to put in some time exercising across the street from Paul and Sheila's. Some way or another we will TRY to continue working on organizing a weekly "body maintenance' routine. In the meantime, we have been searching for any kind of inspiration...as it so happens we came accross this video soon after attacking the Blvd. Will one simple video inspire us? We just don't know...but we will keep you posted.
We just returned home from a wonderful Thanksgiving at Sheila and Paul's in Portland, Maine. Spending more than 2 nights in the area gave us plenty of time to catch-up with friends and family over the holiday. After plenty of Thanksgiving turkey, the Parker clan made sure they left space for 30 crustaceans the next day. I may not be a lobster fan...but I love the brilliant orange hue lobsters become once cooked.
Even though Halloween has come and gone, we couldn't pass up sharing how our family loves to celebrate in style. Each October Jay's sister, Kris, and her husband, Kevin, leave us amazed by their Halloween costumes. When it comes to costumes, we have yet to meet a duo that out matches them.
If you thought you may have had a chance at winning best Halloween costume in this family we are so sorry but you better KISS that dream goodbye. This year no one can out do these two. We love you Kris and Kevin! We can't wait to see what you surprise us with next year.
Part of our morning routine involves Willow waking-up Jay with a claw to his chin (fortunately no damage has been done yet).
My good friend, Ibi, forwarded us this animation and we couldn't resist sharing it since it outlines Willow's wake-up call all too well. We hope you find it as comical as we did.
We are proud to announce that today the Popsicle Pants Parker website was launched. It took a long time in the making, but all of the stationery will soon be available to view online. Right now, the site basically has an "under construction" theme going on but that will change soon. It just feels good to finally be able to typewww.popsiclepantsparker.comand see the home page appear. We will be sure to let you know when the site is truly functioning so you can POP on by.
On September 29th we had a blast at Perrin and Jonathan's wedding in Westport, MA. For those of you that don't know, Perrin and my friendship goes all the way back to our Kindergarten days at Dedham Country Day School. Perrin looked absolutely stunning. Right now they should be returning from their honeymoon to Greece (they were chartering a boat around the isles). I only hope they don't return too tan -- only kidding. We love you guys and can't wait to see you soon. Here are a couple photographs from the wedding.
I've never seen Perrin so happy. The veil she wore had been in her family for three generations. It complimented her dress beautifully.
Perrin has always said she can't dance. After seeing her and Jonathan on the dance floor, I will never believe her again. Both of them can definitely move. She needs to give herself more credit.
Jonathan gave such a heartfelt speech to Perrin during the ceremony. I couldn't help but get teary again. Of course it had been impossible for me to hold back the tears during the ceremony.
Perrin truly lucked out finding these dresses for us to wear. The polka dots mirrored the tie her father wore when her parents got married.
I couldn't resist ending with this image. Yep, you guessed it -- that's Jay dancing! He is impossible to keep up with. How he never breaks a sweat I just can't understand.
Perrin and Jonathan, we can't thank you enough for including us in the celebration. We had an absolute blast!
We are two wacky artists who call 59 Winthrop Street home. Sara stays busy working on her photography and graphic design while Jason occupies his time illustrating everything in site. In other words we spend our days in front of computers.
