Day 27

 
Posted by Picasa


Yes- we have completed day 27 (actually I am one day off from starting my blog, so really it's day 28 but who's counting?)

Uncle Sean, Aunt Jenny, & Audrey visited today. They brought lots of movies too! VHS. We are one of few Americans who have a VHS player and large tv that, 10 years ago, was pretty hot. I actually went to Best Buy one day to look for a smaller tv, and could not find the tube televisions anywhere and even asked. Seems that I must have missed the flat screen revolution. So if this tv lasts another 10 years, Ethan will eventually think its really cool and bring it college as a vintage peice of furniture. It works great though and we aren't big tv people... well, I guess we are judging by the size of ours:)

So fun times with Pizza Hut, toys, and family today. Sean helped me with some photography stuff, Jen and I got to catch up on the State of the Union (both the speech and the actual state of our union), and Audrey got to show starfish how the other half (or 80% give or take) live. I think he was jealous of all her exploring, so he just screamed to let everyone know he was ticked at his cast. We had fun though.

Jared is now seeing Avatar in 3D with his best friend from growing up, Hunter Babcock. They escaped the starfish aquarium and he's not back yet. I don't blame him.

So we are counting down the days. From now on I will post what day it is and how many days left.

10 DAYS LEFT in starfish costume.

just to mix things up, I think I'm going to do 3 words to describe our day:

messy, encouraging, & tiring

THANKFUL for:
having siblings that care about me & my family, VHS capabilities, the amount of butter Pizza Hut must use on their dough to make it so incredibily delicious, and refreshing alone time that I got this morning.

The countdown is on!

I am sitting here (in the cold gray of English winter) thinking that we can add a new "thankfulness" in all this...that this is NOOOTTT summer! Can you imagine the aroma if Starfish was also subjected to 90 degree heat and 100% humidity inside that cast!?!

OH for the sounds of stomping, running feet! and glorious "proper" bath-time! What wonder memories I have of the me, you, Abby, the kitchen sink, Ethan and the camera! Those were the days my friend! Those were the days! =)
