Good Friends

 
 
 
 
We are fortunate to have some good friends a few of whom came over on Saturday for a little party. It was great. The initial purpose was to scrapbook, but I can't say I got anything accomplished. Heather and Erin managed to pull together a few pages. It was fun visiting with everyone. We ate some good food, enjoyed some drinks (a bit too much in my case--ugh!!), and visited by the fire. It was a nice change from the norm. Claire was tuckered out by the end of the night. She fell asleep in my arms.

Thank you guys for such a great time! Josh, myself, and even Hunter really enjoyed ourselves and can't wait till we can get together again. I plan on finishing my pages tonight and posting them . . . I agree, I didn't get much accomplished but it was just nice to have some many people to spend time with! I hope that both you and Claire are feeling better. I am sticking your invitation in tne mail tommorrow - graduation is the saturday of Memorial Day weekend. We would love to have your family up if you are able to make it :)

Thanks for having us over...it was a great time! Ethan sure did crash when we got home. I hope Claire feels better soon and her teeth grow in quickly. (Not looking forward to that)

Oh and the food was amazing!!! Veggie pizza rocks.

Ok so next time you should invite me. I know I am a million states away, but it is the thought that counts. AND you never know maybe one day I will show up out of the blue!

A post

You wanted it, you asked for it, so here it is. A post. Hopefully this post will satisfy all your desires. I am not writing about the apple of my eye, Claire, but of the other apple of my eye--reality tv. I love it! Right now I am getting my fill of Big Brother. I have even lured Chris into my dark place. He mostly watched last season because Dick was such a jerk, but Chris is hooked. He's a dedicated viewer once again this season. Sadly, he was a fan of Matty who was kicked off a few weeks ago. I don't think I have a favorite. I find them all to be so obnoxious, yet I watch. Go figure. I obviously need some more excitement in my life. Girls who wear butt showing shorts, screaming matches, verbal abuse, crazy eyes, back stabbing, boys running around in their colored tighty whiteys (if tighty whiteys are colored, are they still called tighty whiteys?)---all in one episode! It is a gold mine. My second can't miss show is Housewives of Orange County or New York City. I really

2 weeks...

As I write this, my house is being cleaned and not by me. This is my favorite day of the week. There is nothing like going home to a clean house and smelling the bleach to know it is germ free as well. This is my second good day in a row! I took the day off yesterday. Claire didn't have school due to Fasching (German equivalent of Halloween--minus the door to door trick or treating), so I gave Mya the option of hanging out with us as well. She took some convincing, but later said she had a great day. I must admit that I was focused on giving my back a much needed break, so my morning consisted of napping and laying on the couch. Not my best parenting in action, but it did wonders for the rest of the day. We met Chris for lunch, then returned home to enjoy the sunshine before the girls' swimming lessons. It was in the 50's yesterday, absolutely gorgeous! It really is hard to believe that we made it through the entire winter with no snow. I think it snowed possibly 2 days, b

4 months

We are potentially down to our last four months in Korea. I say "potentially" because it rests solely on where we are going. If we are heading back to the States, we will most likely be leaving early June so that we can enjoy a full summer with family and have time to get settled before Claire begins school. We caught wind today of what could be our next assignment. Although it is far from official word, all of a sudden my tummy is filled with butterflies. I had the privilege of teaching a little first grade girl who was one of a set of quadruplets. They (she and her sisters) are the most delightful little girls. They are well behaved and truly beautiful inside and out. Anyway, their family was due to PCS (military move) in December. I teased her that I was going to follow her and live down the road. While they were house hunting, I continually asked if there was a neighboring house for me. She'd laugh and giggle, not really sure if I was serious or not. Her Mom thought
