Meet our Posse: Becky

Becky has a very important job at a health insurance company here in the Twin Cities. She lives within walking distance of Alexis's house. She is married to Brett, and she has a pug named Madison and she allows cats into her home. Not strays, but we're not big cat fans here... (even though Kim has one). So yeah, we've never really paid attention. Sorry Becky. She'll be joining us in Chicago and St Paul as well!

Meet our Posse: Birdie

Alexis met Birdie while they were both attending the University of St Thomas. Birdie is a social worker in St Paul. She takes a fabulous vacation for her birthday every year. Alexis's kids adore her, and the feeling is usually mutual. She will be going to the show in Chicago with us.

Meet our Posse: Ashley

Ashley is Alexis's little sister. She is the Lancome counter manager at a Macy's in the Twin Cities. She was supposed to go with us to Chicago to see NKOTB in October, but she just learned that if she doesn't come to work that weekend that she'll come back to no job. So... that sucks.

Meet our Posse: Kristin

This is Kristin, Kim's younger sister. She has a fancy job at Target Corp. She likes making jewelry and other artsy fartsy things in her spare time. She thinks that we have too much time on our hands, but she wishes us luck...

We would like to introduce our posse

Kim and Alexis have a very excellent support network. They are so awesome their egos can't handle it sometimes. You should get to know their friends.



This is Jason, Kim's husband. He has currently won an awesome trip to Amsterdam in exchange for his unwavering support of Kim (and Alexis).

We figure it is about time that we introduce ourselves

We are Alexis and Kim. We are two slightly co-dependant friends who sometimes have way too much time on their hands.



Kim is super smart. She has a husband named Jason, a dog named Tank and a cute little house in St. Paul.



Alexis is slightly neurotic. She has a husband named Andrew, a son named Aiden, a daughter named Madeira and a equally neurotic dog named Louie.



Sometimes we sit around and drink champagne, sometimes we have excellent adventures. Stay tuned.

Kim and Alexis go to see New Kids on the Block at the Mall of America!
