documentation...

i was under strict orders to document brooke's and jay's visit to the milana house. so here it goes... we dined on a fabulous turkey dinner outside on the patio.

brooke and jay tested out their climbing skills on camelback mountain.

taking a break half-way up the mountain, checking out the impending doom.

impending doom: rain clouds coming our way.

made it to the top! nice going!


sanding the ceiling patch so that we can paint. note the pink room and the ghostly mark on the wall to my right.


jay's got ceiling duty. note again brooke's blue trim work against the pink.

brooke got a little crazy with the painting. but just look at that beautiful blue room!


meg's classic "take your own photo." chilling at a sports bar after a long day of painting!
the gang boozing it up. (the site where brooke and matt indulged a bit much ;) )

in total: we finally had a good excuse to cook a turkey, we enjoyed an afternoon stroll through Tempe, Old Town Scottsdale was explored, we went running and shopping, jay got his tooth fixed and then celebrated by swimming, our master bedroom got painted, the weather was rockin', the guests were entertaining, and at one point or another we all had a hangover...and so concludes our visit from the creaghs. that is until they return on saturday evening which at that point, i've been informed, we will revisit Four Peaks "the best pub on earth."
