...it's another beauty from Contemporist











This house was built in Point Lonsdale, Australia. Any takers? It's not for sale anyway. I love looking at these gorgeous modern houses and I just can't resist posting them. However, my real intent is to manipulate Dave. I want him to see this style so much that it becomes engrained in his mind. When we go furniture shopping he'll say, "Humph, who wants this lazy boy? This white leather Eames lounge chair seems so much more like me." Or, "What? Who wants walls when you could just have windows?" 
Do you think he might be getting close???

...I love the weekend

Dave and I went mtbing at Jackson Hole Mountain Resort this weekend. Jenny, Keith, Drew, and Neil came too. I guess I like taking pictures of the boys more than I like taking pictures of the rest of us.




After biking we went to the gorgeous Palisades Reservoir in Alpine, WY. The Hansen family was so nice to let us tag along. We got to wake surf, air chair, and ski. 



I was never able to let go of the rope wake surfing, but Jenny surfed for a while and Keith and Ben almost have 360s down.







Jen and Neil went out for a surf board ride and Drew was king of swinging on ropes in the boat like Tarzan.




It's so fun to be out on the water in the summer!


Before coming home, Dave and I hiked up the Palisades Creek Trail to Lower Palisades Lake. The hike is beautiful with the creek alongside the trail and cliffs all around. The lake was so clear and cold. Dave went for a swim, but I was too chicken. I stuck my feet in and they were aching after a few seconds!

...that wasn't a very subtle hint

Margot, Ryan, and Lindsay gave us this super cute onesie from New York City. I guess we'll have to try and fill it up with a fat little baby for ya :)
