HAPPY BIRTHDAY MICHELLE!


Yes it's Friday, April 27th and that means that my lovely wife Michelle is celebrating her birthday. Yes she's turning 29... again... for the fifth time! GOOD FOR HER!

Well, here at CorsiWorld, we don't celebrate birthdays on just the day. No, in fact, we've been celebrating all week. Michelle has received a gift each day since the start of the week (the five-day countdown), I also made her favorite BBQ Steak on Monday and we had Thai last night. Tonight however, we are going out in style.

Tonight's festivities will include GLOW 5-PIN BOWLING (a little old school phun) and then DINNER & DRINKS @ EARL'S (a little more old school phun) with friends and family. Good times are sure to be had by all, I'll post pics of the event right here on the weekend.

Anyway, with all the love and happiness I can muster baby, I hope you have a fantastic birthday and I hope you are smiling all day long and enjoying every second of it!

UPDATE: See the birthday pics HERE!!!

And Chad took some wiiiiide angle shots that can be found HERE!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAYS ALL AROUND


It's a momentous day here at CorsiWorld as Big Daddy Mario (Gio's Dad) is celebrating his birthday today and he's doing it in style by taking a transatlantic cruise. He and Gina are off on their holiday and so far it sounds like they are having a blast. If he gets a chance to read this, Dad I hope you have a great birthday & holiday and we'll celebrate when you get home. I love you pops!

And to all you out there, if there's anything wrong with me, this is the man to blame :-)


But that's not it... my buddy Chad is also celebrating his birthday today and I am such a good friend I completely forget how old he's turning. I think it's 32 but rather than being wrong I will say he's turning 3! HAPPY THIRD BIRTHDAY CHAD!!!

Chad's doing great, he's walking like a champ, using all his "big boy words" and he stopped going potty in his pants weeks ago. He still cries for his mom at daycare on the odd occasion but he's really good at keeping his room tidy and going to bed when he's told. Next year he goes to preschool and Chad is excited to try out for pee wee soccer!!!

In all seriousness, Chad is a photo buddy, drinking buddy, food buddy, travel buddy, xbox buddy, boston terrier buddy, movie buddy and all around good buddy. We here at CorsiWorld wish him the heartiest of birthdays and hope this year is as great as the last.

We held a small birthday get-together for Chad this last weekend, you can see the pics HERE!!!

Phew... lots of birthdays in April and more to come!!!

VICTOR MOVES TO MEXICO

My brother Victor has taken a big step. He left the comforts of Protland, Oregan to move back Mexico for some new adventures. Since he's related to me and as much of a nerd as I am, he is keeping a blog of his mexican adventures HERE!!!

Good luck Victor, stay in touch and have a Chalupa for me!!!

SPRING IN IN THE AIR!


Happy belated Easter everybody!!! I don't want to get into a religious debate or offend anyone but seriously, is Jesus a zombie? You know, dies on a Friday, rises on a Monday, hunts for brains... Are we celebrating Zombie Jesus Weekend with bunnies, chocolates and eggs? Wow... I have got to stop reading comic books.

By the way, the above picture is of my cousin Ida's daughter Sofia, she is in no way affiliated with zombies or jesuses or brain hunting just with being cute.

Anyway, we are well into April and things are cooking. My uncle ANTONIO celebrated his birthday at the top of the month (happy belated by the way), I credit this man with first getting me interested in photography and as a shining example of living life to the fullest! The Parents (Mario & Gina) leave this week for a trans-atlantic cruise from Florida to Spain then a week in Italy. My dad will also be celebrating his birthday during that time and there are a whole slew of birthdays happening over the next few weeks.

Our Deep Cove apartment goes on the market this week so Michelle and I have been cleaning and de-cluttering as we prep for the first "open house" this weekend. The next few weeks promise to be crazy ones!!!

Laverne is doing great, slowly being housebroken but picking up "sit", "drop it", "come" "no" and "let's go" like a champ. She's also learning some tricks like "hop" and "tunnel" but you should see them in person, actually I am sure they are not as impressive for you as they are for us so scratch that whole trick thing altogether.

Sebastion is still on the insulin but seems to be on the up and up, he's shedding something fierce but his energy is much, much better. Pinchy got his yearly shots and is not taking to them very well. We think that the Vet may have bruised him while injecting him or the medication is rubbing him the wrong way but he's slowly returning to his normal self.

Anyway, that's about it for now, stay strong all y'all and GO CANUCKS!!!

LOGOS & FLOWERS


I noticed, while going through my Flickr archives, that I have taken a lot of pictures of different flowers (trees & bushes) and logos (signs & banners). They make great practice subjects as they don't move around a lot and let you play with your settings while never complaining! Thing is, some of them are pretty good!

So I put them into sets for all to enjoy. Check out FLOWERS and LOGOS!



Oh yeah... Laverne is doing great!
