Thanks Ed! I think they are cute but I am kinda partial to them. lol.

I'm just glad I don't have to worry about boys for quite a few year yet, Ry is only 9 (going on 19) and Madass is 6.

They are beautiful little girls, though, Cris... no denying that at all!!
I'm glad you cleared that up for me Pete, I was starting to wonder about you

You're funny, Jay. You, too, Cris.

Take a quick peek again at the third pic I inserted into post #8587, and you'll see a beautiful little woman on the left end of the lineup in a turquoise dress.... by herself, there is a whole lot more on the inside of that little woman than there is on the outside, and between her and the rest of that crowd... I have more than I can handle without looking anywhere else!


(but I DO love handling her all the same!!)

That is the only way to cruise, with a balcony!!! There is nothing better than getting up and going out on the balcony to drink your cup of coffee or going out there at night to just look at the stars and listen to the waves when everyone is asleep.

I just had to rebook our cruise for this summer... We were supposed to leave on June 7th for the Mexican Rivera for a week but due to the stupid *** swine flu Canival re routed out cruise up to Canada. The family wasn't happy with that so I had to move all 19 of us to another cuise in July. If you cruise you need a balcony and need to be up on the Lido deck!!!

If you want we can just bounce a few ideas back and forth. There is ton of new technology that depending on how finished the inside is you ca nrun wiring for it.





Cris: I love that pic of the girls. They do look like you.

cris I love the pic. I cracked up over "towel" puppy. We have been studying a video on making towel animals.
When we see the commercial with the guys holding the towel animal it makes us laugh because it is from the "adult" section of the video. The brontosaurus and male "stuff" are made same way. So I ruled no brontosaurus for my rooms.
I have mastered the puppy and the elephant. will post some pics.
I haven't done the cruise thing like that (just rodeoed via pick up and highways) but always drooled on alaska idea.
Can you tell me about your little ones name?

hey Jim!

Yeah, I hate laying guys off, especially these two. There are some others that I wouldn't mind getting but they aren't calling for cuts there....yet.

On a good note, it's hotter than hell here and tomorrow is the opening of jet ski season.

I'm so ready.....

I have to share these. This is the craziness I gave birth to 13 years ago. Her dismount from our draft. This is how she dismounts from all horses. Why cant she just do it like everyone else?

The "death" scene. Now that is what she conjured up in first/second grade summer. She had her sisters draw outline and take picture. Concept, make etc were ALL her. She wanted to freak her dad out. She freaked me out instead. Hell she freaked everyone out.

The bear suit is result of 4th grader putting on toddler halloween costume and getting stuck. While stuck and waiting for us to quit laughing and help her out she had to ham it up.

Never a dull moment.

Forget finish Mother's Day shopping. I haven't started yet. D'OH!

And I'd forgotten that the 10th was mothers day so I'd scheduled that weekend to meet up with Jim. So then we pushed it to the 17th. Now my grandma says "Oh why don't we all go out for lunch on the 17th?"

So this is gonna go over like a lead balloon, but oh well. Time for people to realize I might actually have things planned so they can't spring things last-minute.


Sorry to hear about that, Scott. That really sucks.
