Kellie's bachelorette bash

The big event for Kellie's bachelorette party was a trip to the ... you guessed it: pumpkin patch in Rhinebeck. 

Chad gets most of the credit for this impressive display:

The big 3-0

For Andy's 30th birthday, Jenny flew in from L.A., Rick brought champagne, and we christened the new kitchen.  These photos represent the most glamorous portion of the day -- things got considerably, er, less picturesque later in the evening.  

Rick gave Andy a copy of the amazing tome More is More: Tony Duquette.

Farewell old kitchen

These are the last known photos of the old kitchen, with its adorable red counters, built in cabinets, and wavy hex tile floor.  What it lacked in usability it made up for in cuteness.  We will miss it dearly.

We are keeping the mud room sink, even though we have no use for it.
