So much to blog... so little time. A question: Do you eat the little skins on peanuts? Why or why not.

A shout out to Steve, lost 10 lbs! Way to go, Idaho! (Hope that wasn't told me in confidence).

Thank you so much to all those who came to the Slade family reunion. I think everyone had a good time, until the batteries ran out. But seriously folks, I know my kids were in absolute heaven. They ask everyday... "Are we going to Janett's house? Susan's? Ticee's? DiAnn's? Grandpa's? Steve's?" Just pile in the car kids and we'll head out. We really should do some sort of trip, but I'm afraid if I just think about it and never really plan it, we won't end up anywhere but right here.

Just thought everyone should know that apparently S can write as well as read. I bought her a little book with the wide lines and the letters to trace and she just went to town! She does much better now than B did when he was in Kinder. I am telling you, she is not only beautiful but a genius as well (and with no help from me... I don't know how this is happening).

I should have led out with this, can't believe I left it till this far into the blog... I am still floating from last night (wink, wink). I saw a preview for CHUCK!!! That's right, Chuck is coming back ladies and gentlemen. No need to worry any more.

I need to finish the blankets I am making. I am crocheting around the edge of baby blankets. Cutie pitutie... Ana is going to give birth any minute now and I am afraid that Jodi's baby is coming early, maybe she is already here!

I started a sewing circle in RS and we taught a few people how to crochet the edges. They were all speedy learners. I was especially impressed with Bonnie. She had never crocheted before in her life and she learned how to do the blanket! Bonnie was as stalwart as a pioneer, not giving up until she got it. I am very impressed. : ) Kudos to you Miss Bonnie.

Jules,
Thanks so much for hosting all the chaos at your house. It was so much fun seeing everyone. Thank you for the museums and the zoo. My kids don't stop talking about them. Richard even complains about me playing for another day and him having to go home early-Like I didn't beg him to stay and go with us. He is too funny. Love you again. Bye
