I Love wedding dresses!

This is a picture of my wedding dress. When I saw the dress for the first time I knew that was the dress I was going to get married in. My favorite part of the dress was the back! I wish I could put my dress on a wear it around the house, but alas it is all sealed up in a preservation box. Dang! I am hoping that one day one of my daughters will want to wear! (that is if I have a daughter)

These were my two runner ups!

....so a seagull walks into a shop............

A seagull in Scotland has developed the habit of stealing chips from a neighborhood shop.The seagull waits until the shopkeeper isn't looking, and then walks into the store and grabs a snack-size bag of cheese Doritos.Once outside, the bag gets ripped open and shared by other birds.The seagull's shoplifting started early this month when he first swooped into the store in Aberdeen, Scotland , and helped himself to a bag of chips. Since then, he's become a regular. He always takes the same type of chips. Customers have begun paying for the seagull's stolen bags of chips because they think it's so funny. (I like the fact that he walks in so casually and speeds up on his getaway!)

Lost A-Team

Since we are the Cottam A-Team, I thought it was only fitting to have the A-Team intro.

I need this!

I most definitely need this! the kitchenaid ice cream maker. Just think of all the wonderful ice cream and gelleto I could make for everyone. OK so Adam and I would probabily end up eating most of it but it the thought that counts right? :)

Wow! This is funny!

I think this is probably the funnest scarecrow I have ever seen!

I think I might have to do something like this in front of our house! (When we get one of course)

Get Some Culture

Lately I have been feeling like Adam and I need to get out there and get some culture. So, we decided that once a month we are going to do something more cultural. I want to experience all that Portland has to offer. I think we have convinced some of our friends to come with us on our adventures too. Here is a list of thing that I want to do in the next year.

• Go to the Symphony
• See a play
• See a musical
• Go to the Art museum
• See and Opera
• Go to a Concert
• Go to the Chinese Gardens
• Do a jetport tour
• The Ballet - Adam will love this one!
  

If anyone else want to join us on are adventures we would love to have you!

How did I get so Lucky? I don't know.

Best Friends

Thea Marie Anderson is my oldest and dearest friend! I have known her since I was 5 years old. We grew up together sharing our dreams, laughter, secrets & families. Thea is the type of person who has this sixth sense. She knows when I need her, even before I know it myself. We have been friends for over 22 years now and I know we will be there for each other for the rest of our lives. I just feel really grateful to have her in my life, someone who know my past and will be with me in the future. She is my Fifth Sister! Love ya Lots Thea!
