Nice, Calm, Weekend!

These types of weekends are what I live for. Kerry and I both went for a run yesterday morning between the raindrops. Then we went to a party for a friend at Wynn's house. I love seeing how the girls interact with each other and new people. My friends are big sportsmen, so they have a den with many deer heads and other animals. Lucy just loved seeing them all over.

This morning we went to BJs and FINALLY GOT MY 32" TV. W00t! It looks huge on our mantle. I already watched the end of the Game 7 Canes win on it--and it looked GOOD! Then Lucy and I rode bikes all over the neighborhood. It was SO much fun. Just the little things that make me appreciate my family so much!

Busy Busy Busy

I really need to quit saying things 'couldn't possibly get any busier.' After last weekend, the week went quickly. My mom flew in on Saturday, and we have been enjoying her time here. Of course the rain really has not stopped since Friday. We hope to get out today, even for a few minutes. And we're all SICK! I went to the doctor this afternoon and have some meds to hopefully get over this crud again. Then on Saturday we have a Canes game with Kerry's dad and Shannon. Go Canes!

Back To Work...


After the annual NCTIES Conference in Raleigh, and a weekend working with a school in Cullowhee, I am looking forward to returning to my real job tomorrow! I feel that after 6 months on the job, I am ready to begin putting forth some changes and letting my ideas come out. We have a great thing going, and I look forward to continuing that!

Loved seeing the girls for the day. We took them to preschool and picked them up. I peeked in Myra's class, she saw me, and danced over to the door. I loved that! Then we played the rest of the day. We made it through a relatively warm day (84), and as you can see in the picture, the girls had some rosy cheeks!

Yeah, I Am Hooked on Lost

So we started with the first few episodes when it started. But we didn't get interested in it. Well, with the end of last season, I became hooked. So here it is now!

Things I Want to Remember


There are so many things that happen with my girls that I want to make sure I remember for the rest of my life. I guess this blog sort of exists to be that journal that will help me. For instance, in this picture, my little Ubuntu baby. Surely she is the first Open Source Baby out there! She was just so cute in putting the sticker on her and saying Ubuntu. Then tonight, reading our new favorite book, The Grinch, before bed. We make up our own part, all three of us singing the 'Welcome Christmas' song twice during the story. Just things to warm my heart!

A March Snowstorm Here?

Yup, that's what it appears will happen later today. After two days of rain (about 2 inches worth--take that drought!), tonight it will turn to snow. We could expect 3-6 inches, with more to the West. So I am in snow mode--told Kerry not to make my lunch for tomorrow, pumping up the girls for snow play, and I pull the wipers off the windshield. Hopefully I can post some wintery pictures tomorrow!
