Slacker.

I have been an absolute slacker in one portion of my life as of late.

And that's blogging.

And for that I apologize.

I wanted to drop in and give you an extremely valid excuse.

Our first house party, and a Halloween party at that.

So I'm knee deep in house prep, decorations, crafts, buying shit, more crafts, spray paint & buying even more shit.

So there you have it, folks.  Our new home has trumped blogging over the past couple weeks. 

Please forgive me....I'll be back soon. 

Weekend Getaway to the Coast!

The coast of North Carolina that is, Raleigh to be exact.

My big brother is having himself a baby.  Well, his wife. 

Wow, that got weird for a second.  Almost as weird as this picture.

Almost as weird as this picture I snapped of them.

Well, his gorgeous wife is due with their first little bambino & we wouldn't miss the celebration for anything. 

And we like to celebrate.

With margaritas, wine & well.....martinis as well.

So, Mom & I are hopping on a plane and heading out to Raleigh for their baby shower on Sunday. 

And we are also kind of excited to see this guy.

And his huge watermelon head. It gets cut out of pictures it's so huge.

But I love 'em anyway.

So you all have a good one because I know I will.

Peace out Kansas City, hello Raleigh.

Looking forward to a weekend full of girl time while catching up with two people I absolutely adore in celebration of their little bambino!

Congrats Matt & Liza!! 

Tattoo: /taˈto͞o

Tattoo:

n. pl. tat·toos

1. A permanent mark or design made on the skin by a process of pricking and ingraining an indelible pigment or by raising scars.

 

Well, it's forever inked official folks. 

 

I endured did it.

I took the prick plunge.

I got my very first tattoo.

I've had this puppy planned for MOOOONNNTTTHHHHHHS, but I couldn't let it slip as Jon reads this 'ol blog.  Don't you honey?

And I don't go ruining surprises, so mum was the word.  Until now.

It just about killed me not being able to Instagram while I was getting skinned alive inked.

I was so excited to show Jon & so excited to show all of you.

For all of you dedicated Instagram followers (@annexenos), thanks for the love
Saturday night with my big reveal! 

We celebrated the rest of the evening with our good friends Eric & Justin.

No, I tip my hat to you Eric Church.

You rocked our socks boots off. 

Maybe I'll get this face tattoo'd on my ass next.

I mean, wouldn't you?

So tell me, do you have a tat? 
(You like how I say "tat" like I'm an 'ol pro.  No worries, Ma.  It's my one and only.)
