Annie

As you may know, Dot is in love with Annie. We decided months ago to be characters from "Annie" for Halloween. Dot will be Annie, Townes will be Sandy, Cory will be Daddy Warbucks and I finally convinced Dot to let me be Grace Farrell instead of Miss Hannigan. When we got back from California her costume was waiting for her. Its a little big, but we'll make it work. I can't wait to find a great Sandy costume for the buddy.






She has until October to get the words down. And hopefully she'll sing the entire song at every stop.

The gem is at the end...



CONGRATULATIONS ANNE!!!!!NO ONE IS GOING TO LEAVE YOU IN MEXICO NOW!

you didn't think I had it in me did you?

Beautiful, I know. Cory is a lucky man.

It's Cory's birthday today. Sadly, the awesome picture I got him hasn't arrived yet. I guess the celebrations will just have to last until Monday. That's okay, we have a lot planned.

1. Dinner and a movie tonight (thanks Grandma Donnay for taking the kids)
2. Dotty wants to make a Mario Cake for him.
3. Fixing the garbage disposal
4. Working
5. Convincing him that his recurrent (and current) walking pneumonia is probably caused by a milk allergy (despite the fact that he doesn't drink that much milk...)

Anyway I love this guy so much. And to that he'd probably say "shut up"
and my heart skips a beat.

home sweet home

So almost four years later we're almost finished moving in. Cory's office is the last room, but now that he has moved his computer back to 3form, I'll be able to tackle it. I'll post pictures soon.

This would make me cry if it didn't totally stress me out with how complicated this must have been to produce.

Thinking deeply about thinking deeply

I just thought I'd share this great article if any of you fine readers are misunderstanding some introverts in your life. It's a good read.


I am blessed with an extrovert that enjoys time alone and he is pretty lucky to have someone that really enjoys all the time he spends playing video games...cause it gives me time to just sit and think...
