I can't believe I haven't been updating for 8 weeks, like my home screen just told me. We have been busy--we've been to Utah, kids' sports adfinitum, illnesses, and I just went to the premiere of New Moon the other day. Also, my husband and I had a rare date night last night and saw "The Blind Side" which I highly recommend to you all ( Read more... )

My sister's post was much better about this, but here are some pics of our fun Office premiere party last Thursday. It was an excuse to get my Halloween decorations out way too early, even though Halloween has nothing whatsoever to do the The Office, and see all my favorite peeps at once. Also, to eat too much and dress like idiots and watch an ( Read more... )

Here are some shots of the kids from the new camera. Alex's first flag football game, some beautiful blankets my sister has been sending to us, and Camille....

So Camille has finally done it. She says "dadadadada" all the time now. There was a brief period where she was sounding out "mummmmm" but no dice, it didn't stick. Mike is peeing his pants with joy and pride. I know she's just making random sounds (or is she?), but still. Sigh ( Read more... )

Hello Everyone! Last night we had our Office Premiere Party complete with Chili's food, triva question contest (with prizes), and yogurt medal lids. Our Jim and Pam ruled, although Jim was late and missed the show totally. :( He still looked good while doing so. Abby was Pam from the Halloween epi, I was Phyllis, my sister was Dwight, and her ( Read more... )

So things are ok with Abby. I scared the pants off of her warning her about what happens when crazy people want to do things to little girls (without going into too much detail). This neighbor friend said she wanted to play "lost kids", I think like the show Lost and try and live out in the open on their own for awhile. It's funny if it weren't so ( Read more... )

A couple of people have written to me to ask how things with Abby are going. And I'll just say--like usual. Much ado over nothing. We had several talks that day about what happened to that boy, and I don't think she understood the horrible-ness of that situation fully. She called the mom "rude". I tried again to explain how I really felt when I ( Read more... )
