The girls are superexcited that there are enough leaves on the ground at CHEZ FANNY & FREDDIE (the grandparents) so they can make a HUGE pile and jump in it. Thelma is using some kind of rod to push the leaves together. I guess it’s working okay.

Do your kids love going to the dentist? Mine do.
Unlike some kids, my girls LOVE going to the dentist. This is not something they got from me. I hated going to the dentist as a kid. Every time I went, I feared that the Dentist would discover yet another cavity. Eating healthy was not a concern growing up in the 80s. Wasn’t JUNK FOOD one of [...]
Convenience shopping at Fanny Mae and Freddie Mac’s.
We were out of eggs and rather than going to the grocery store and have to get dressed, drive, park, walk all the way to the back the store, get my eggs, possibily get distracted and buy a million other things, come back to the front, wait in line, check out, pay, find and walk to [...]
The family goes to their first women’s college soccer match.
With the girls being so excited about soccer, Dick wanted surprise the girls by taking them to an actual match so they could feel the energy of being at a game and see how competitive women’s soccer is played.

After the party comes sushi!
I didn’t eat anything prior to us going to the Halloween party so I was starving and craving some sushi. So, Dick and I ventured to one of our favorite sushi bars downtown after we left the party. What I like about this place is that it has a loungy feel. It’s like a neighborhood hang out where those who live nearby [...]

And he’s STILL in the bathroom.Gives you some perspective on the DIFFERENCES between MEN and WOMEN. [...]
Halloween shopping at Spirit Halloween.
Lucy was in town over the weekend so we took the girls shopping for costumes since they have been wanting Halloween costumes for the last 2 months. Louise has been checking them out online and has already changed her mind 3 times…each time telling me she’s ABSOLUTELY, POSITIVELY NOT going to change her mind. Good thing [...]
Having major computer malfunctions. Overload of too many pictures.
