Belated Christmahannukah

Every year I celebrate Christmas & Hannukah in January with my special group of ladies. The 07/08 party was hosted last night by Auntie Fafa at her new digs in San Francisco. Great job, Fa! We had a big group of 19 this year with all the significant others that attended. There were also some impressive gift exchange gifts, many being homemade. Kristen created the image collage above and made it into a calendar, and now we all want copies. That is the scanned version so it doesn't look quite as good as hers. Her boyfriend, Peter, was hazed a little bit but I think he secretly liked it. Or maybe not so secretly...



Here is Auntie Fafa recreating the Will Forte & Peyton Manning skit from SNL. Such expression and energy!



I was really happy I could come to the party, what with being a walking time bomb and all. It was buttloads of fun and I love seeing all of you ladies. Feliz 2008 everybody!

Barbizon Model(s) of the Week

I took these shots of my teammates today at work.

Dear Team,

You guys are nerds. Don't forget to give me a good peer review for 07.

Love,
EvilKate

What do you think I should put in the middle square???

Halloween Dia de Los Muertos Shower

What is more fitting than a Halloween baby shower for Evilbebe?? Mwahahahaha!

My favorite bunch of gals threw me a Halloween / Dia de Los Muertos shower this past weekend. It was THE best shower I have ever attended. Awesome food, fun games, everybody in costume! I ate so much decadent stuff that it made my feet swell up and I didn't even care! To top it all off, these ladies chipped in and bought us a stroller and carseat!! I am very spoiled and truly grateful to have such thoughtful friends. Thank you again, girls. Evilbebe can't wait to come out and be squeezed and tickled by all of you :-)

Pictured here from left to right: a hippie, a Dia de Los Muertos lady, a provocative blue fairy, Dorothy, Mother Nature (aka fat pregs lady), a Top Gun pilot, a cowgirl, Audrey Hepburn and Minnie Mouse.

You thought I would forget...

Day 2 of the Blog-a-Day challenge and I'll bet you thought I would forget. Well I won this time. Ha!

I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate my best friend, Mrs. Berman, on tying the knot a week ago. Can I just say - this wedding was so beautiful and so much fun! Everybody had a fantastic time and this marriage is going to last because Mr. Evil officiated the wedding (when he marries people they stay married). Doesn't her hair look awesome? And why does my head look like a pea on top of my ever expanding pregnant body? Ah Mother Nature, you are cruel...

These are the bridesmaids. Left to right: Brian (no i'm not gay) Hubbinger, the bride's sister, the bride, yours truly, and Sara the gorgeous (not to be mistaken for Angelina Jolie)

Happy Birthday Auntie F

Happy birthday to Auntie Fafa! Here are some pics from her bday brunch. Doesn't she look like Lisa Loeb?

Ye shall receive

Mark complained that I don't blog enough. Hey everybody, here's a picture of Mark :-)

Auntie FaFa Exposed

The infamous Auntie FaFa in her true form. If you're not familiar with her you can visit her blog here. She is a crafting, cooking, sewing tornado.

Barbizon Model of the Week

What can I say? Mark is my muse. Just look at what he's willing to do for photography.

Here is one of the pics from this weekend's Cinco de Coco birthday celebration. Can you come up with a creative name? I will accept entries until 1pm on Tuesday 5/8. Afterwards I will choose the winner, and there is a mystery prize! Have fun :-)

A Very Vegas Wedding

Mr. Evil and I just returned from a fantastic wedding in Las Vegas. Our good friends, Jasun & Christina, got hitched at the Tropicana Chapel. They were married by a singing Elvis and it was one of the best weddings I've ever attended!! We had a great time and I was able to get a lot of shots after the ceremony. The clouds suddenly moved in and covered the direct sun for about 30 minutes. We had great light and I was so happy! I know, I know, it doesn't take much.

Jasun and Christina, we wish you two all the best. You guys are perfect for eachother and I hope you have lots of fat babies :-) Thank you so much for letting me take all of those photos on your special day. I loved it! We're looking forward to seeing you soon. Here are some of the shots...

Barbizon Model of the Week

Its none other than Ms. Gallagher and her lovely shamrocks.

Why I come to work every day

I schlep out of bed and drag my buns into work 5 days a week. Its crazy happenings like this that make me come back for more. Watch your office supplies when Sartoris is on a bender.

Barbizon Model of the Week

A few people have asked what the Barbizon is all about. Those of you who grew up in the 80's may recall their cheeseball, low-budget commercials. Looks like their marketing got a little bit better but they are and will always be ridiculous. The models I find are far superior to theirs anyway :-)

Love, Honor, and....Obey??

My best friend is getting married this year and I have the priviledge of being her Maid, ahem, Matron of Honor. Yesterday we went to try on the dresses. There was something very retro Madonna about her when she was outfitted in the veil, dress, etc. Sean Penn was the only thing missing. Thank you thank you for not having a train, Court!

Bouncing Baby Boy

Congratulations to my good friends, Eibleis and Carlos. They gave birth to an adorable baby boy yesterday, named Ruadhan (gaelic spelling and is pronounced Rowan). He was 8lbs and 7oz. It was cool that they didn't know the baby's gender ahead of time. I knew it was a boy :-)
