Cory's cousin Richae is getting married next month in Chattanooga. I went to her bridal shower with Cory's sister Dawn and his mom...here's me, Dawn, and Richae...
Next month, Cory and I are going with my mom to take my grandma to Florida. Along the way, we are either stopping in Savannah, GA or St. Augustine, FL (we haven't decided which yet). Then we will be going to Chattanooga for Richae's wedding...then we'll be going on our annual trip to Philadelphia/New York City over Thanksgiving. Then it will be December and I will be very sleepy...
In the meantime, my sister Lauren had an opening at an art gallery last Friday- at Space 237. They even featured one of her paintings in the Toledo Blade, because she is amazing. Her art will be on display there for a few months, I recommend everyone going to see it. Here are Bethany and Lauren at the opening. They are adorable. And I have a bad feeling I am never getting my purple cardigan back...
Here is one of Lauren's paintings....my current favorite. I want to buy it. Dibs. And please note that this painting not only features a Santa Claus monster and a vampire monster, but also a Jesus monster.
Yesterday my mom and I drove up to Monroe to visit a Halloween store that someone recommended to us. The store was kind of a bust, but we did end up following some signs that said "Island", because we were like, "What island? This is Monroe." and we found a secluded road that took us alongside Dog Lady Island. There were lots of cranes, seagulls, and a lotus bed. 
But no dogs. Or ladies.

Oh, and I ended up getting my Halloween costume accessories back in Toledo. And just in time, cause our annual Halloween/birthday party is soon. And my mom is taking Cory and I to see Robin Williams for our birthdays. Kyle, too. And Cory, Mike, Steph and I went to see David Cross last week, which was AWESOME!! And a long time in coming, Mike and I have been waiting for him to come around for YEARS.
Anyway, time to get ready for a family meal. Some of my Texas relatives are in town and my cousin Linda is making food and she is an excellent cook, so hooray!
Have a great Sunday, everyone!

You should have followed the signs to "Dayton Road Brewing".. and had your mom sample some brews. :) The garage looks the same pretty much, except there's a bar in it now, with bar stools. haha. Figured, if we're going to spend all our time out here drinking, we may as well put a bar in it!
BTW - congrats on getting married! It's a vicious cycle.. before getting married, everyone asks - When ya getting married?!? Now they'll start asking.. When ya gonna have a kid?!!? Then after the first kid, they start to ask - When's the next one?!?! Jeesh. But yeah, congrats..
Hey - one last thing, is your sister set up on Etsy.com ? I'd like to see more of her work, she is amazing! That monster one is freaking awesome.. If I see it and have lots of $ with me, I'm going to buy it before you and charge you to look at it.
Yeah, we should have! haha... Your garage sounds awesome. I miss having a garage...
Thanks for the congrats! And even though we're not even married yet, we're ALREADY getting asked when we're gonna have kids. People need to mind their beeswax, haha...
Lauren's not on Etsy yet, but I keep telling her to get her stuff up there. You can see some of her stuff on Myspace and Facebook, and her stuff will be up in Space 237 for a couple of months, she has a show going on in Adrian, MI, and she has a studio at Secor Studios. And damnit, now I just gave you directions on how to get to that painting first...
