500

Our 500th post! 

I've talked before about what the blog is to us-- a sounding board, a communication tool, a social tool, a resource for how not to be a parent.  Sometimes it's a place for Steph and me to bitch and/or gush about our kids to each other when we don't have time for real, adult conversation.  It's been a way for us to meet new people while breeding instant familiarity with them.  Other times, it's a place for me to bore people with my love of photography, or our love of wine or pop culture.

So here's to you, loyal readers-- we love you all.  Even you, Anonymous.  We'd probably be doing this blog even if no one read it, just because it's fun.  Oh, and of course because we really are just self-absorbed bloviating pseudo intellectuals, engaged in diaristic diuretics.

So to celebrate our 500th post, I'm posting one of my favorite pics I've ever taken.  (And no, it's not of RJA.)  These are our monkeys, and they are the reason for this blog.

Fantastic image. I was going to leave a comment on your Facebook page, but it wouldn't let me.

That is magnificent. Very hard to believe you didn't photoshop that. Could a day that perfect exist? Do your children actually like each other enough to hold hands? That is just the most stunning picture.

You'll have to tell me how you photoshopped them being all sweet with each other.
