So my good buddy Pip celebrated his 9th (!) anniversary yesterday! To say time has flown by is an understatement. I remember his wedding like it was yesterday and thanks to Facebook I got to look through those memories and photos again today. One of my all time favs is this one from photographer Stephenie Cobb Knoll who awesomely re-created the Abbey Road album cover on the corner of Kirkwood Ave in Bloomington. In case … Continue reading
Welcome to today’s Throwback Thursday! The timing of this one is sort of ironic as 406 Founding Father Floyd just celebrated his 14th wedding anniversary yesterday! Here’s the original album that we shared on the site way back when he got married. It just goes to show you that whether at “home” at 406 or out on the town, these folks know how to party! Congrats and happy anniversary my man! Do you have any other 406 … Continue reading
Welcome to today’s Throwback Thursday! Our good friend Ryan Gookins spent many a days and nights at 406 (seeing as he lived right across the parking lot). Here’s the original album that we shared on the site way back when he got married. Gotta love drinking directly from the Bud Light tap and (Pip?) double fisting bottles of booze. That needs to be your profile picture everywhere sir… Do you have any other 406 related photos? Send … Continue reading
Was going through some old drafts here on the blog and ran across this beauty. I’ve live tweeted a couple of weddings in the past (Open Bar #WeddingTweets and Live Tweeting With An Open Bar Is Outstanding!) and I did the same thing during this family wedding in the Chicago area. I’ve never seen a hotter girl look more trashy. #weddingtweets It’s always super cool when the wedding party acts like douche bags when they … Continue reading
It’s been a while since I’ve added a new Beer Shot to the blog here. I was going through some old photos and saw this one and instantly thought it a candidate for something I’ll call “Heaven & Hell”. I’m a HUGE fan of going to weddings (and naturally the open bar that tends to accompany them). These pics were taken at a wedding we went to. Sadly, I can’t remember which wedding it was … Continue reading
I’ve been a really bad blogger lately. And by “lately” I mean for the past few years. I have a tendency to start blog posts and then never get them done. As of this writing I’ve got 21 drafts in various states of completion. This one was started just over a year ago when Wife’s cousin Kim got married on 10/13/2012. So… I spose this is some sort of weird anniversary present to Kim & … Continue reading
Went to a wedding of a family friend the other night. I (for all intents and purposes) live tweeted the event and got some pretty positive feedback. I’m always leery of how long Twitter will keep history like this so I’m archiving it here on the site. Oh yeah… I also thought some of the tweets (which I’d completely forgotten… you’ll know when when you start reading) were pretty funny if I do say so … Continue reading
I recently made my yearly trek back to the Hoosier State to see brother Pip. As always the weekend went way to quick, but it was absolutely awesome to see Pip and Lauren again. I look forward to this trip every year and it had been a while since I’ve made the journey. Last year, instead of going to Indy for a weekend, we made the trip to Bloomington to be with Matt & Lauren … Continue reading
In case you’ve been living under a rock there was a wedding this morning. Prince William married “commoner” Miss Catherine (a.k.a. Kate) Middleton. I’m happy to say that I completely ignored the hype for this story. I didn’t give a shit, didn’t set my DVR, and didn’t stay up late to watch it. However… as I was kissing the wife & kids goodbye this AM I turned on the TV and the live coverage happened … Continue reading
I’ve said it time and time again… I’m a geek. 80’s movies are my wheelhouse ranging anywhere from science fiction to action movies to horror. Many times these movies come complete with some cheesy soundtrack and when we’re talking soundtracks no one does it better than the man… Kenny Loggins. I’m Alright – Caddyshack (1980) I can’t embed it here, but if you want THE edition of this song you’ve got to check it out … Continue reading
