Halloween (fest)!

So this Halloween Sam and I finally decided to take part in the local festivities after two years of staying home and listening to an inordinate number of sirens. So we went to the BLSA party (Black Law Student Association).
The theme of the party was "VIP's" so as you can see Sam chose Bristol Palin, which paired nicely with the fifteen Sarah Palins that ended up at the party.

The fake pregnant belly got some funky looks when Sam was partaking in the Martinis.

I chose to go as pre-retirement Castro; which required that I spend a half-hour glueing fake hair to my face and limited my beverage options to only those things that came in a bottle.

Sadly none of my friends could be convinced to dress as Kim Jong Il for Halloween, or even Hugo Chavez, it was sad. Overall it was good times.

Same Old Thing

So, we are boring as all hell these days. Rafe is a study maniac. Sam is a slave to the man.
Oh, Sam cut her hair...again; she doesn't like looking at her face on this blog though, so if you would like to see it, it needs to be requested. Other than that, we've been planning our Halloween costumes...I think that you'll all be hilariously surprised when you see them.

Rafe is pretending that he is a grown up now. He's representing kids in court (those poor kids--getting some not-a-lawyer as their representative). Hahaha, just kidding, those kids are lucky they get any representation at all from what Rafe tells me.

Alas, 'Fest' season is over here in Seattle, but fall is here and it is a beautiful thing especially if the sun keeps shining the way that it has been. I like all of the leaves on the ground because it helps camoflage the spit making it a little less unsettling to walk down the street. Anywho, that is all for now. Soon we will have our costume pics posted, so be excited.

Sam's New 'Do (fest?)

Before
and...
After. Isn't she adorable???

Sandfest 2008!

So, Sandfest was this past weekend. A little lackluster for something that has 'fest' as its suffix, but none the less impressive. Notice the quality of picture that came from Rafe's phone.

Hempfest '08

...and the 'people' kept on coming.


Gotta love a man in a skirt!
Bong and Weed...the original Disney characters.

If anyone is interested you can go to their website (which we have not seen, so we make no promises) @ www.bongandweed.com

Look at the size of that thing.

Seafair 2008!!!

Isn't he 'pimptastic'?

Ahhhh, Seafair...the great equalizer. The mingling of the masses. The rich, the poor, the high, the sober, the police, and the convicts. There are not too many places in this world, I imagine, that you can see this sort of organized anarchy. One of the things we will miss when we leave you Seattle.

Honeymoon Part II

We had these little visitors in our rooms throughout the trip. Sam was ok until a giant cockroach jumped on her head while we were lying in bed. I don't think she slept that entire night.

The patented, "Rafe, stop taking my picture" face.

It's a beautiful life. Guatemala, a nice place to visit, but we wouldn't want to live there.

Ahhhh, this might just be the life for us.
