Labor Day? more like Labor Play!

Labor day is supposed to be a day of rest, relaxation, and play time. Well its not all fun and games as it turns out. I ended up having to do a bunch of yard work. (not entirely uncommon) But I guess it was worth it because we were able to hit up the lake with Jeff and Jenny. You might be thinking to yourself, "The lake on Labor Day? It had to have been packed!" And that is where you are wrong. We got on the water around 4:30 pm, just as everyone was going home from a long day at the lake. The first 15 or 20 min were the worst part of the afternoon, and it still wasn't that bad. After that, there was hardly anyone on the lake and the water was great! As usual we wake boarded full out until it was too dark to go anymore. then we went home.


I got my game face on

Amanda showing us how its done
Jeff G, in the place to be

Sorry Jenny, this was the best one of you
not kidding

Here we go

mystery boarder

good times...good times
p.s. I need a better boat, with a bigger wake, and a tower.
just thought I'd let you know

Calling All Boyfriends

Don't get the wrong idea...

Basically this is an attempt to recruit more guys (a.k.a. boyfriends) to post on this blog. The idea behind the creation of the boyfriends blog was that there would be multiple "bloggers" posting their thoughts, comments, ideas, and just plain old good times for all to enjoy.

Probably not too many of us would have our own blog, so I thought we might all share one, that way there can be something interesting to read now and then, but most importantly we won't feel as gay if we are all doing it together.

Since I created the blog, I have to "invite" you to be able to post on here. All I need is your email address and I can get you all set up.

Don't send them all to me at once! One at a time please!

Just to clarify, this is open to ALL "boyfriends". So any guy whose wife, girlfriend, friend, girl who you want as more than a friend, sister, cousin, aunt, mom, you name it, rock-a-fame-it... basically if you know someone who is a blog-stalker, and want to get in on the action without feeling too silly, let me know. Don't worry, I already took the first step for you, now you don't have to feel so dumb.

Shoot me over your email, either send it as a comment to this post, or email it to leemail3@gmail.com, and I'll juice ya up!

P.S.: If you are a girlfriend and want your boyfriend to get in on the action, feel free to send me their email.

P.P.S.: If your name used to be Kami Coombs and you are reading this, call me or email me so we can k.i.t. But most importantly, have a great summer, and don't change 4 N E 1.

a sad day

So these aren't actual pictures of the moment, but you can imagine what it would be like if the were...


before plumbing again...




after plumbing again...


Yes its true, I started plumbing again. Basically it's hard to make ends meet when you don't make any money, so I needed a steady income so we could eat, and going back to plumbing was pretty much my last resort... I'm not kidding, my last resort. I tried to think of anything else I could do that would bring in enough, and there wasn't really anything that would do it without experience. So back to plumbing I went, tired I am again, and dirty my hands will ever be.

There are a few perks, namely great health and dental insurance, a guaranteed check every friday (both of which bring great peace of mind), but most important, we now have time and money to go to the lake every week at least once, if not twice!! That I don't mind. We take my dad's boat out, a 1990 Four Winns he bought brand new when I was 9. Now it is kind of a piece, but it is a lot better than nothing. So for now I'll take what I can get.


The girls love it



I tried to get up on the wakeboard Eden's first time out...
It didn't happen.



Who says I drive fast?

(and no I didn't doctor this one in photoshop)

I cried :(





This is just a memorial to a long lost friend....

My 1956 VW Bug, 1600 dual port, dual weber 40's...with A/C!!

I had to sell it a few moths back....

I cried.

Then, not too long ago, the guy I sold it to called me up and told me he was selling it and I could have first dibs. I saw some pictures...

I cried some more.


It didn't look at all like my bug. He had repainted it all white, and had redone a lot of other things, different rims, etc. It wasn't event the same bug.

I guess some day when I have enough money,
I'll buy an old '56, like my old one, and fix it up with my boys, when I have some, that way I can make my bug just how I want it.

Then maybe my tears will dry up...
maybe.

Old bug...Rest in peace...
Not everyday that you see something like this......And yes, we could fit all three in the garage!




Just Gettin' Started





This is just a little place where the boyfriends can come to get away from it all and let our true selves shine.

In all reality it probably won't be updated that much, but you can imagine what it would be like if it were, right? right?

So if you are ever in the mood for some manly stuff, or if you want to know the real story behind what you've read on our wives blog, then feel free to pop in now and then, and have a look see. You just never know what you might find on THE BOYFRIEND'S BLOG!











We might be hardcore -- Watchout!!









Laugh it up!





Our counter parts...

Aren't they beautiful?
