It was quite funny that we were watching and hoping they wouldn't get hit too bad, and they only got a half inch of rain. Then the winds made it up here and did major damage. Quite rediculous, actually.&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_w29uN5c5g8A/SM8S3PuKa6I/AAAAAAAAABY/bm1-OMDG3RM/s1600-h/Windstorm-14.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246432831232175010" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_w29uN5c5g8A/SM8S3PuKa6I/AAAAAAAAABY/bm1-OMDG3RM/s320/Windstorm-14.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_w29uN5c5g8A/SM8Rrg27OkI/AAAAAAAAABA/mFNOeWmuJZ0/s1600-h/Windstorm-97.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246431530162272834" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_w29uN5c5g8A/SM8Rrg27OkI/AAAAAAAAABA/mFNOeWmuJZ0/s320/Windstorm-97.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Schools were closed today and will be closed tomorrow also. Even I didn't have to go to work and I ALWAYS have to go to work. There is always office work to do at schools, but if there is NO electricity and NO phone, there is really nothing we can do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;We were the lucky few. Our electricity came back on at 4:30 this morning. They said there were over 300,000 without electircity yesterday. They restored 85,000 and there are still 215,000 without electricity. 62 out of 90 electrical substations have been damaged. Many of our friends still do not have electricity. We gave Ed and Francey our generator and they loaned us their chainsaw and help today. John's chainsaw broke and we definitely needed one. Some of our neighbor men also came over and helped cut down and pile up branches and trees. CJ was an amazing help. As you can see even little Talley was really helpful.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_w29uN5c5g8A/SM8Q9vOBDgI/AAAAAAAAAA4/gFjnj_sEjUM/s1600-h/Windstorm-78.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246430743743237634" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_w29uN5c5g8A/SM8Q9vOBDgI/AAAAAAAAAA4/gFjnj_sEjUM/s320/Windstorm-78.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_w29uN5c5g8A/SM8R-jSjz8I/AAAAAAAAABI/BKvt_FvOjkY/s1600-h/Windstorm-103.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246431857232564162" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_w29uN5c5g8A/SM8R-jSjz8I/AAAAAAAAABI/BKvt_FvOjkY/s320/Windstorm-103.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_w29uN5c5g8A/SM8cg0QLz6I/AAAAAAAAACI/n1-Yl804FBg/s1600-h/Windstorm-51.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5246443441017835426" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_w29uN5c5g8A/SM8cg0QLz6I/AAAAAAAAACI/n1-Yl804FBg/s320/Windstorm-51.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;We did not get an ounce of rain, it was weird.

I was trying to get to a cookbook on a shelf and I stood on a rolling desk chair. Yep, you guessed it, it rolled and I fell. I landed on both hands and sprained them very badly. They xrayed them twice thinking they might be broken. I have been wearing a brace on both hands and haven't been able to drive or do much of anything. I couldn't even hold a blowdryer in my hands (picture John or CJ holding a blowdryer in the air while I try to blowdry my hair.) Today is much better and I was actually able to download my pics from my surprise quick trip to Florida.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;My trip came about one morning when I heard from Uncle Ed that he was going to surprise my Mom and drive down to see her. I asked if he had 2 more seats available and Cj and I hitchhiked. It was a quick but great visit and I came back with a few cute pics. I didn't take as many as usual, since I wasn't there that long. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Most of you know the gorgeous babies in the pics. More pics on my other site.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Will try to be better.&lt;a

type='text'>A Letter From Granny</title><content type='html'>I know, it is a title that makes you wonder. But, it is true. In cleaning my desk, I came across a letter I received from Granny in 1991. Alex was only 8 months old. I have read it throughout the years and often thought I should share it with others. Some of you may have never rec'd a letter from Granny since you lived near her, but I just want you to know, Granny's letters were always something to look forward to. Even as a little girl, I remember loving a Granny letter to arrive in the mail. She just said what she was thinking at the time, jumping from one subject to the next. I love looking at her handwriting, it brings back so many memories!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;(In this letter, she signs it "Stella", which I find kind of funny also. I don't think this is her memory going, I just think that one was a slip. I can promise you I never called her Stella.)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;So, even though this letter is written to John and me, I hope it makes you smile. If you click on the picture, it will make it bigger and you can read it.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;I love you Granny!!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/SDTBXqdI94I/AAAAAAAAA_o/p1QGWjkCPN4/s1600-h/Granny+Page1.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5202996081797429122" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" height="369" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/SDTBXqdI94I/AAAAAAAAA_o/p1QGWjkCPN4/s320/Granny+Page1.JPG" width="330" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/SDTBYadI95I/AAAAAAAAA_w/tcZKcH0DgzY/s1600-h/Granny+2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5202996094682331026" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" height="433" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/SDTBYadI95I/AAAAAAAAA_w/tcZKcH0DgzY/s320/Granny+2.jpg" width="322" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/SDTBYqdI96I/AAAAAAAAA_4/ehtHnQg-INI/s1600-h/Granny+3.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5202996098977298338" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" height="362" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/SDTBYqdI96I/AAAAAAAAA_4/ehtHnQg-INI/s320/Granny+3.jpg" width="321" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/SDTBY6dI97I/AAAAAAAABAA/XSMKyPuufbc/s1600-h/Granny+4.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5202996103272265650" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" height="352" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/SDTBY6dI97I/AAAAAAAABAA/XSMKyPuufbc/s320/Granny+4.jpg" width="343" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19554402-8535903493195575290?l=lorieskids.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://lorieskids.blogspot.com/feeds/8535903493195575290/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://lorieskids.blogspot.com/2008/05/letter-from-granny.html#comment-form' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19554402/posts/default/8535903493195575290'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19554402/posts/default/8535903493195575290'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://lorieskids.blogspot.com/2008/05/letter-from-granny.html' title='A Letter From Granny'/><author><name>Lorie</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://lorie.smugmug.com/photos/108229341-M.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/SDTBXqdI94I/AAAAAAAAA_o/p1QGWjkCPN4/s72-c/Granny+Page1.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19554402.post-5238854887521118164</id><published>2008-05-19T22:24:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2008-05-19T22:33:11.900-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Logan</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/SDI2qqdI90I/AAAAAAAAA_I/DnU4mMuuxCo/s1600-h/IMG_9162.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5202280626145261378" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/SDI2qqdI90I/AAAAAAAAA_I/DnU4mMuuxCo/s320/IMG_9162.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/SDI3w6dI92I/AAAAAAAAA_Y/837OfTVNQAY/s1600-h/IMG_9188.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5202281833031071586" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/SDI3w6dI92I/AAAAAAAAA_Y/837OfTVNQAY/s320/IMG_9188.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/SDI3wqdI91I/AAAAAAAAA_Q/md8qJM3q8RU/s1600-h/IMG_9220.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5202281828736104274" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/SDI3wqdI91I/AAAAAAAAA_Q/md8qJM3q8RU/s320/IMG_9220.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/SDI3xadI93I/AAAAAAAAA_g/4xixeR72JZQ/s1600-h/IMG_9299.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5202281841621006194" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/SDI3xadI93I/AAAAAAAAA_g/4xixeR72JZQ/s320/IMG_9299.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Okay, we had a great day at the "Walk" on Saturday. Hopefully, a lot of money was raised for Juvenile Diabetes.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;I took lots of pics before and during the walk, but especially afterwards at the park. Of course, we were focusing our attention on one particular little girl, but if I saw cool Team Logan tshirts during the day, I snapped some pics. The pic looked exactly like Logan!!  Have a look and see if you know anybody. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;But please, do excuse all the pics of little blond girl.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://lorie.smugmug.com/"&gt;http://lorie.smugmug.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19554402-5238854887521118164?l=lorieskids.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://lorieskids.blogspot.com/feeds/5238854887521118164/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://lorieskids.blogspot.com/2008/05/logan.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19554402/posts/default/5238854887521118164'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19554402/posts/default/5238854887521118164'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://lorieskids.blogspot.com/2008/05/logan.html' title='Logan'/><author><name>Lorie</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://lorie.smugmug.com/photos/108229341-M.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/SDI2qqdI90I/AAAAAAAAA_I/DnU4mMuuxCo/s72-c/IMG_9162.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19554402.post-6320713381146185700</id><published>2008-05-13T21:05:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2008-05-13T21:15:13.687-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Happy Birthday Kendall!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/SCo856dI9vI/AAAAAAAAA-g/YuYaGO43COY/s1600-h/IMG_8891.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5200035685394347762" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/SCo856dI9vI/AAAAAAAAA-g/YuYaGO43COY/s320/IMG_8891.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/SCo88KdI9wI/AAAAAAAAA-o/Sjubnz4XLdg/s1600-h/IMG_8861.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5200035724049053442" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/SCo88KdI9wI/AAAAAAAAA-o/Sjubnz4XLdg/s320/IMG_8861.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/SCo88qdI9xI/AAAAAAAAA-w/BBqjI-6J4M0/s1600-h/IMG_8900.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5200035732638988050" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/SCo88qdI9xI/AAAAAAAAA-w/BBqjI-6J4M0/s320/IMG_8900.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/SCo886dI9yI/AAAAAAAAA-4/xAuSStXfmfs/s1600-h/IMG_8941.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5200035736933955362" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/SCo886dI9yI/AAAAAAAAA-4/xAuSStXfmfs/s320/IMG_8941.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/SCo89KdI9zI/AAAAAAAAA_A/YdircnTd_dA/s1600-h/IMG_8944.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5200035741228922674" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/SCo89KdI9zI/AAAAAAAAA_A/YdircnTd_dA/s320/IMG_8944.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Well, I was going to wait and let Ashley post a picture from Kendall's bday party, but she hasn't yet, so I will.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;She was 3 year's old on Sunday.

It was the high school sorrority/fraternity's winter dance. Kind of sad that each dance she attends will be the last one I will have a daughter going to. In a few years, I will have a son going to these. Now that is even more weird!!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;As you can see, they had fun. Even after the long talk from John.

Everybody dance now! Dunt, dunt, dunt, dunt!! Happy Birthday Beth! I tried finding a picture to post and realized Beth usually hides from the camera.  I found this one and some of her in her bathing suit at the beach and some pregnant. I thought she would like this one better. I almost posted one of her in her bathing suit in our younger years where Nancy, Sara, and I were also in our suits admiring something she had that we didn't, but um, we were ALL in our suits, and though I only wish I looked like that now, I didn't know if I would still be alive if I printed it. But Beth, YOU know the picture and you know how GOOD we all looked, don't you?  Love you and hope your day is great!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19554402-7251730450824963381?l=lorieskids.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://lorieskids.blogspot.com/feeds/7251730450824963381/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://lorieskids.blogspot.com/2008/02/happy-birthday-beth.html#comment-form' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19554402/posts/default/7251730450824963381'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19554402/posts/default/7251730450824963381'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://lorieskids.blogspot.com/2008/02/happy-birthday-beth.html' title='Happy Birthday Beth!!'/><author><name>Lorie</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://lorie.smugmug.com/photos/108229341-M.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/R7bdzHMYJcI/AAAAAAAAA14/alz7CkGKX5c/s72-c/rrrr+copy+5.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19554402.post-4773332609030185355</id><published>2008-02-10T16:53:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2008-02-10T19:01:55.433-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Happy Birthday!!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/R691CnMYJZI/AAAAAAAAA1g/TvyS2H6YTdM/s1600-h/b+copy+2a.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5165475985358333330" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/R691CnMYJZI/AAAAAAAAA1g/TvyS2H6YTdM/s320/b+copy+2a.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/R690JXMYJSI/AAAAAAAAA0o/b1R9oqcva28/s1600-h/xxxx+copy+4.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5165475001810822434" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/R690JXMYJSI/AAAAAAAAA0o/b1R9oqcva28/s320/xxxx+copy+4.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;So Paula reminded everyone about Pat's birthday.

I think Ashley put a scrapbook page she had made about bunny on her blog at one time, but I felt bunny must be showcased. &lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/R65I1HMYJOI/AAAAAAAAA0I/ZuoTvmtnWxc/s1600-h/Kendall+bunny15.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5165145899941766370" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/R65I1HMYJOI/AAAAAAAAA0I/ZuoTvmtnWxc/s320/Kendall+bunny15.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; He is that important. (Kind of like Patrick's fish blanket.)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Her blog did not share our end of it. We were just heading out to the basketball game to see Alex. John was there ahead of us and Dani and I were kind of waiting until closer to halftime. Well, when Ashley called we said yeah, we'll drop him off before we go up to the game. On our way to Ashley's house, the phone rang and John said the second quarter had already started. He asked why I was going to Ashley's first, since there wasn't much time, I told him about Bunny and he immediately understood the gravity of the missing Bunny at bedtime. &lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/R65I0HMYJNI/AAAAAAAAA0A/jMh058GAk8I/s1600-h/Kendall+bunny109.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5165145882761897170" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/R65I0HMYJNI/AAAAAAAAA0A/jMh058GAk8I/s320/Kendall+bunny109.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;We were in a mad dash to drop Bunny off and still make it to the game in time. We pulled in to the driveway, Dani made the pass of Bunny to Brian at the door and ran back to the car. We then rushed back to the school. In the meantime Alex calls us asking if we were there yet. Dani, in her wisdom suggested we park in the second parking lot and run from there. I, imn my wisdom, had to try and get a closer spot, but alas there were none and we had to go back to the lot Dani suggested in the first place. Of course, as we were running (me - gasping and running), I got to hear "I told you so!" Well, we did make it in time and I got to take pictures, but it was quite a little adventure. I just thought I would share the WHOLE Bunny experience. &lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/R65I13MYJPI/AAAAAAAAA0Q/Ipt0_W1S8Ho/s1600-h/Kendall+bunny24.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5165145912826668274" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/R65I13MYJPI/AAAAAAAAA0Q/Ipt0_W1S8Ho/s320/Kendall+bunny24.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Now, you know the REST of the story!!

She said he is a very nice guy and it looked like it as she was laughing with him out on the court. She didn't win Queen, but said she didn't expect to, within minutes of it being over, she was changed and hanging out with friends.

I am the biggest I have ever been in my life. I have these super pissy genes from the family of my father. (No last names given.) They are not from the family of the pissy skinny family of my mother (no names here either). But, anyway, I digress. I decided this was it and I had to do something to motivate me to stay with my diet and exercise.  So, at work I put out the word and set up the biggest loser contest. We had 19 people join and we are doing it until May 19th. Something about these challenges just make me stay with it.  Last time I was the biggest loser. But, then I think I turned around and became the biggest gainer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, wish me luck and slap anybody who happens to be near you who inherited the "skinny" genes of this family.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ha.....

It's Alex! We have a snow day today but my mom still has to work. :( I was looking at this blog and figured you guys might want something fresh on here. We don't really have any new pictures but I guess I could add some random ones. Anything is better than this same ol same ol!!!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/R5Y__vNRT1I/AAAAAAAAAvs/AfxJILEwsEw/s1600-h/ii+copy+4.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5158380787435917138" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/R5Y__vNRT1I/AAAAAAAAAvs/AfxJILEwsEw/s320/ii+copy+4.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Thought this picture was pretty humorous. I think I was in 6th grade, meaning this was about 6 years ago. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/R5ZAlPNRT2I/AAAAAAAAAv0/JteRipQKUBE/s1600-h/scan0059.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5158381431681011554" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/R5ZAlPNRT2I/AAAAAAAAAv0/JteRipQKUBE/s320/scan0059.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;This picture is fitting for today, being a snow day and all. It's me, Jessy, and Dani. We were soooo excited about that tiny bit of snow! I remember Dad and Uncle Jeff even sent us down the tiny hill on trash can lids. Of course, I only remember this through pictures because I was obviously too young to remember this. haha. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/R5ZBw_NRT3I/AAAAAAAAAv8/gok9962EkF0/s1600-h/rrr+copy+4.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5158382733056102258" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/R5ZBw_NRT3I/AAAAAAAAAv8/gok9962EkF0/s320/rrr+copy+4.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I will have to upload the picture of us doing this yesterday.  It was a lot of fun, Dad enjoyed it most of all.  I kidd I kidd.  He would still be on the ground if we had done that!  And CJ probably would have broken his neck sitting right there.  Haha.  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Well, just wanted to get something new up here.

Well, as my kids were born and got busy and picky, I found I slowly transitioned to more kid friendly meals, then as they got older and more busier and I started working, it got harder and harder to plan anything. I was getting home late, kids were ready to eat or not home until really late because of their sports. It got to where we had more and more convenience foods.  Homecooked meals turned into Stouffers lasagna, Spaghetti, grilled cheese, eggs or anything quickly thrown together. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, I decided to get back into the swing of real cooking. I have a husband and one child at home who really loves homecooked meals and one young man who would rather me just let him eat mac and cheese and just leave him alone.  But CJ is coming along.  Since XMas, I have been planning on Saturdays and preparing the night before what needs to be done the next day. I have made my kids wait a little while if supper isn't ready quite when they are ready. In the past, they were all starving and by the time I would get home, they had helped themselves to waffles, cereal, or whatever they decided they wanted to eat. Now, they have a little snack if they have to and then wait.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the last 2 weeks, I have made:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Meatloaf&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Shells and Cheese Chicken Casserole&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Pork Chops and Gravy&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Creamed Spinach Spaghetti&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Beef Stoghanoff&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Beef and Gravy&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Impossible Ham and Cheese Pie&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Taco Pie&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Homemade Pizza&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of Course, we had lots of side vegetables&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Potatoes - mashed, sliced, baked&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Noodles&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Corn&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Green Beans&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Green Bean Casserole&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Peas&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Salad&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, keep your fingers crossed and pray that this continues for me. Tomorrow night is Roast with potatoes and carrots. Wed. night I have taken pity on my son and told him we would have grilled ham and cheese sandwiches and mac and cheese.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Happy Cooking.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19554402-5154841475139323233?l=lorieskids.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://lorieskids.blogspot.com/feeds/5154841475139323233/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://lorieskids.blogspot.com/2008/01/turning-over-new-leaf.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19554402/posts/default/5154841475139323233'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19554402/posts/default/5154841475139323233'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://lorieskids.blogspot.com/2008/01/turning-over-new-leaf.html' title='Turning Over a New Leaf'/><author><name>Lorie</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://lorie.smugmug.com/photos/108229341-M.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19554402.post-4327991575665402385</id><published>2008-01-07T07:59:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2008-01-07T08:07:39.344-05:00</updated><title type='text'>My day</title><content type='html'>Okay, even Mom is chastising me. I need to do another entry. My kids don't do all the cute things the little ones do, so I don't have fun quotes and pics to add daily.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am going to the eye doctor today for a check on my contacts. I had saved my medical spending money from work to have eye surgery to find out for the first time in my life, my eyesight had improved since last year. Not a ton, but enough that they won't let me have surgery until there is no change. Good grief. So now, I am back to contacts. Dang.  And trying to find all the receipts for my copays and medications, etc., so that I can get reimbursed from my medical account. I get that money since I turn down insurance, but it can only be spent toward medical things. I would rather just get the money, wouldn't you?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I also have the "other" kind of doctor appointment today. Yuck. No fun. But I did take the whole day off and am going to the gym first thing with Ashley, then appntmnt., then play , then back to my appntmt. (Alex is meeting me, as she has her apptmnt too, you know family affair.)  I am going to go wake Dani up to see if she can make herself get up and go with us to the gym. I hope so. Fortunately, she has turned into the not so typical teen and goes to bed at reasonable hours and wakes up by 9AM usually.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, I will try to think of more exciting things to write.

(edited to say pics have been added.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We had a fantastic time. We &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;skied, snow tubed, skied, shopped, played Scene It (friends version - Dani is a pro), laughed, cried, went to movies and just had a fantastic time.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;We knew it was supposed to snow us in Friday during the night, so we decided to celebrate XMas Sat. since we couldn't go anywhere.&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/R3W5aPNRTvI/AAAAAAAAAu4/_eC5-V03-Pg/s1600-h/IMG_2057.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5149225609377959666" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/R3W5aPNRTvI/AAAAAAAAAu4/_eC5-V03-Pg/s320/IMG_2057.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; We just opened presents and hung out together that day, which was very nice&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/R3W70fNRTwI/AAAAAAAAAvA/qchBo67O_mY/s1600-h/IMG_2112.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5149228259372781314" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/R3W70fNRTwI/AAAAAAAAAvA/qchBo67O_mY/s320/IMG_2112.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.

The resort is real small, so the snow runs were not extremely long, but the nicest thing was there were usually no lines. On XMas day, we ran into lines for about 1.5 hours and that was it, usually we skied down and went right to the lift. Everyone of us could ski this resorts "Black Diamonds" which were not really black diamond, but it was fun to do it. CJ was fearless. &lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/R3W5ZvNRTuI/AAAAAAAAAuw/XxYRfo_NYVA/s1600-h/IMG_0675.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5149225600788025058" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/R3W5ZvNRTuI/AAAAAAAAAuw/XxYRfo_NYVA/s320/IMG_0675.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;He tucked in and went plowing straight down. He also learned to spray his Dad with his skis.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;Ok.... falls, where should we start. Most of the time, we did not fall. I had 2, Dani had 1, Alex had 1, CJ had a few (as he would try to learn new things) and John had a ton (but only the day he tried snowboarding.) The girls falls were kind of &lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/R3W71fNRTzI/AAAAAAAAAvY/fwD_kd_37Ds/s1600-h/IMG_0629.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5149228276552650546" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/R3W71fNRTzI/AAAAAAAAAvY/fwD_kd_37Ds/s320/IMG_0629.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;stupid and funny. &lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/R3W5Y_NRTsI/AAAAAAAAAug/o4zyupqOVRg/s1600-h/IMG_0065.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5149225587903123138" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/R3W5Y_NRTsI/AAAAAAAAAug/o4zyupqOVRg/s320/IMG_0065.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Alex fell once as she was getting off the ski lift. She had lost her ski and was trying to do it with one ski. They had to stop the lift and help her ... and she kept falling as he was helping her. Dani was getting on the lift with me beside her ( she was actually already sitting in the seat) and her pole got caught and &lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/R3WZwfNRTqI/AAAAAAAAAuQ/vnAhplYieV4/s1600-h/IMG_0669.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5149190807257960098" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/R3WZwfNRTqI/AAAAAAAAAuQ/vnAhplYieV4/s320/IMG_0669.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;her wrist was still in the strap, so she .... kind of fell out of the lift. It looked like she had done a face plant, but she didn't. We couldn't stop laughing. One of my falls was just because I was trying to be fancy and it didn't work. I then couldn't get myself up, the ski wouldn't let lose. The other fall was a bit more dramatic. I was standing behind my family waiting in the ski line and....... I was totally not paying attention and just lost my balance and fell down. The family turned around and there I was on the ground. It was pretty darn funny. It is so HARD getting up with skis on. John was there to help me, but it is still very hard.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;Well, gotta get back to work.

The driver was also a friend and has been in the hospital with fractured skull and other injuries. Jordan (in black sweatshirt) does not remember the accident, but fortunately witnesses have said it was not her fault. A large deer jumped in front of the car and after hitting the deer full force their Ford Focus was thrown in the path of a semi truck.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Life in Oldham County is very somber for these teenagers this weekend, as they are all getting together to plan ways to remember Megan.

I surprised her by going up at lunchtime and walking in on her in the cafeteria. She seemed very happy to see me. She had told me that her roommates and another girlfriend were all going to dinner and a movie. I knew they wouldn't mind me going with them, so I decided to give Dani a surprise. What I didn't realize was that they had 20 people sitting at O'Charlies waiting for her tonight. She was surprised and I was happy to be there and see all the love people have for her there.

I thought he was cute, but possibly not very smart. My friend told me that he HAD to be smart if he went to the Naval Academy, but I thought they might have made a mistake --- he kept repeating the same questions to me over and over, like he had no memory. (Found out later, it was the many, many drinks that caused that.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He said that night he and Jeff each thought the other had gotten our phone numbers .... well there was no way I would have given a guy from a bar my phone number. I worked a week of night shift and then we went to a wonderful little town in Indiana to celebrate my Pappy and Granny's anniversary. That would be a time shown in one of the pictures in previous blog posting. Came back in town and worked more night shifts before I was able to go out again. Funny thing was that I had lots of friends tell me that guy John kept asking them about me. He apparently kept going back to several of the local "dancing spots" looking for me. :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finally, I had a night out and was looking for my girlfriend whom I was supposed to be meeting. As I rounded the corner, I saw that hunky looking naval aviator turning around from the bar. I said, "Hi!" and he just stared at me and didn't say anything. I then said, "I'm sorry, I thought I knew you" and turned, embarrased, to walk away. My arm was grabbed and he said, "Lorie, where have you been?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, I didn't know it, but my single days were over from that time forth. I fell and I fell hard. I used to wonder if a certain guy was the right one and wonder if I was really in love. Well, I have told my girls, when it is the real deal, you know it. After 3 months I was so in love with him and fortunately the feeling was mutual. Once he told me he loved me, he opened the faucet and I told him, and told him, and told him. It is a wonder he didn't turn tail and run.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today, I still tell him over and over and over.

We told them that if they graduated with a 4.0 (or close to it) and stayed out of trouble then we would make sure they had a car when they went to college.  We made this deal hoping it would give them something to use to prevent peer pressure when it came to certain activities high schoolers may get into. We also were hoping it would mean scholarships and therefore could afford a car payment since we wouldn't have to be paying full tuition for college.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, Alex has done great and does have that GPA, as well has stayed out of trouble. We knew we couldn't surprise her at Christmas as she has kind of been expecting it. So, we went out this weekend and found a car she really wanted, with all the things she was hoping for and a deal we couldn't pass on and voila, Christmas in September. She knows her Christmas will be small and I imagine we will be wrapping that car brochure in a box, just to remind her at Christmas about her early present.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here it is...... it is a Mitsubishi Lancer.  It is rated one of the safest cars in its class.  Happily, it has front, side, and knee air bags. She is more excited about the sun roof and spoiler. ha&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Congratulations Alex, on your GPA, scholarship that is coming, and of course on earning your car. You have made us proud!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RtyxnmH6M-I/AAAAAAAAAjw/0PWzhWLSkPc/s1600-h/IMG_0195.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RtyxnmH6M-I/AAAAAAAAAjw/0PWzhWLSkPc/s320/IMG_0195.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5106151371338036194" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RtyxnGH6M8I/AAAAAAAAAjg/TBxpCKbMMWw/s1600-h/IMG_0181.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RtyxnGH6M8I/AAAAAAAAAjg/TBxpCKbMMWw/s320/IMG_0181.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5106151362748101570" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/Rtyxm2H6M7I/AAAAAAAAAjY/1EEEs75JqqA/s1600-h/IMG_0184.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/Rtyxm2H6M7I/AAAAAAAAAjY/1EEEs75JqqA/s320/IMG_0184.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5106151358453134258" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RtyxnWH6M9I/AAAAAAAAAjo/cDd2AeYI73Y/s1600-h/IMG_0187.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RtyxnWH6M9I/AAAAAAAAAjo/cDd2AeYI73Y/s320/IMG_0187.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5106151367043068882" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19554402-381923105886771870?l=lorieskids.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://lorieskids.blogspot.com/feeds/381923105886771870/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://lorieskids.blogspot.com/2007/09/christmas-in-september.html#comment-form' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19554402/posts/default/381923105886771870'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19554402/posts/default/381923105886771870'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://lorieskids.blogspot.com/2007/09/christmas-in-september.html' title='Christmas In September'/><author><name>Lorie</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://lorie.smugmug.com/photos/108229341-M.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RtyxnmH6M-I/AAAAAAAAAjw/0PWzhWLSkPc/s72-c/IMG_0195.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19554402.post-7606021094690651419</id><published>2007-08-31T22:26:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2007-09-02T06:55:05.470-04:00</updated><title type='text'>My "Little" Boy and My Um, Um......

She is in an apartment  on campus that has 2 bedrooms, a bath and a combined living room/kitchen/dining room.&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RsjtIWH6MfI/AAAAAAAAAfk/GY8_YsA2CYs/s1600-h/100_1968+%282%29.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RsjtIWH6MfI/AAAAAAAAAfk/GY8_YsA2CYs/s320/100_1968+%282%29.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5100587305630577138" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Of course, John happened to be the only Dad that was able to come, so he did all the big grunt work of moving beds and furniture around for the best fit for each girl. I wish I could have helped design these rooms, actually I think a 3 year old could have done a better job in some cases.  It is very hard making it a good arrangement unless the girls want to bunk, which they do not.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RsjtI2H6MgI/AAAAAAAAAfs/NrPH6GcVpkM/s1600-h/100_1976.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RsjtI2H6MgI/AAAAAAAAAfs/NrPH6GcVpkM/s320/100_1976.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5100587314220511746" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After the furniture had been arranged, John put together the futon we had gotten for Dani at Walmart. While he was doing this, Dani, the girls and I were trying to unpack and arrange all their things.  We then made a trip to lunch and Walmart for cable and internet supplies. John was able to spit the cable so all rooms have cable. Originally, it was only set up for the living room. He did an awesome job of making the cable go under the wall sideboard and above doors. We had peeked into a boys room and the cable was pulled down the hall, across doorways and held to the carpet with duct tape.  I think the girls like John's way better. I was able to get Dani's printer and internet set up.&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/Rsjt3GH6MiI/AAAAAAAAAf8/Gp4e13I1A5E/s1600-h/100_1969.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/Rsjt3GH6MiI/AAAAAAAAAf8/Gp4e13I1A5E/s320/100_1969.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5100588108789461538" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/Rsjt2mH6MhI/AAAAAAAAAf0/GjYaMWxoCx8/s1600-h/100_1959+%282%29.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/Rsjt2mH6MhI/AAAAAAAAAf0/GjYaMWxoCx8/s320/100_1959+%282%29.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5100588100199526930" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We also went to the bookstore and got Dani her books we had ordered.  I must say, I am glad Dani has a scholarship, because even with me having to just pay the meal plan, books, and the extra for the apartment as opposed to a dorm, it is not cheap. Thank you Dani.  Keep up the good work!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Their little apartment looks so cute. I will post pictures once Dani sends me some. I was originally going to take pictures of all the roomies, but because of all the staggering arrivals and all the stuff that needed to be done, I didn't even whip my camera out once.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hope the shower in Indiana went well. I am so sorry we missed it.  We actually mentioned it during our busy day.  You were thought of!!  We love you!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh, Alex stayed home because she had her first cross country meet of the year and CJ just stayed home because he didn't think it sounded like we would be doing anything fun. Today is a soccer game.

Here is one I wanted to add, but didn't. As we were all leaving the Opening Ceremonies, some Latvian girls ran up to John and asked if they could get a picture with him.  I thought it was pretty funny as there were hundreds of other men there in uniform. Few were in the gorgeous white uniform he was in and though most were younger than him, few were as handsome!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/Rr7zDIJbMFI/AAAAAAAAAd0/HcLyAaH7YZU/s1600-h/IMG_0414.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/Rr7zDIJbMFI/AAAAAAAAAd0/HcLyAaH7YZU/s320/IMG_0414.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5097779063282151506" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On another note, I want to say this is Dani's last week home. We have to take all her things and get her moved into her school apartment on Saturday. We were all disappointed that this meant we could not make Sara L.'s wedding shower. Dani is the one who opened the invitation and I do believe I heard a 4 letter word come out of her mouth.  We would postpone it to the next day, but Dani has to help the Freshmen class move in. She had agreed to do this earlier in the year and that is why she has to move in the day before.  So, I am sure all will have a grand time, but not nearly as grand if the Weires girls could make it. ha&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The new school year has begun. My other two start school on Wed.   Alex will be a senior and CJ an 8th grader.  Jessica Young left for school on Friday evening.  Sara said the phone call about Kendall took her mind off her "baby" leaving for school. She is actually going a few days early to Rush and Sara and Jeff have to go take most of her big things to her later this week.  Mitch and I believe Morgan will be in 10th grade.  I am trying to remember everybody's kids ages, let us see how many mistakes I make. Nash will also be a senior. Kenzie and Tara will be in 9th grade.  Will Allie be in 7th grade.  No, that can't be right?  Larken is either going to start kindergarten or is going to first grade, which is it?  Patrick IS starting kindergarten.  And Kelly gets to stay at home and help Kristy, I believe for two more years.  Kristy says she gets lots of parenting advise from her 3 year old.&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/Rr73UIJbMHI/AAAAAAAAAeE/Jk5rvsBdYGo/s1600-h/IMG006+%283%29.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/Rr73UIJbMHI/AAAAAAAAAeE/Jk5rvsBdYGo/s320/IMG006+%283%29.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5097783753386438770" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/Rr73TYJbMGI/AAAAAAAAAd8/vUUXoydWqyE/s1600-h/IMG016+%283%29.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/Rr73TYJbMGI/AAAAAAAAAd8/vUUXoydWqyE/s320/IMG016+%283%29.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5097783740501536866" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19554402-1270969451933188039?l=lorieskids.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://lorieskids.blogspot.com/feeds/1270969451933188039/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://lorieskids.blogspot.com/2007/08/man-in-demand.html#comment-form' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19554402/posts/default/1270969451933188039'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19554402/posts/default/1270969451933188039'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://lorieskids.blogspot.com/2007/08/man-in-demand.html' title='A Man in Demand'/><author><name>Lorie</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://lorie.smugmug.com/photos/108229341-M.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/Rr7zDIJbMFI/AAAAAAAAAd0/HcLyAaH7YZU/s72-c/IMG_0414.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19554402.post-3505365143374490222</id><published>2007-08-07T19:32:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2007-08-07T19:36:07.859-04:00</updated><title type='text'>We Are All Home...

My roomie and her husband (John's teammate) left in the afternoon. We gave our government international phone back and went on our way.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, at 11 PM, John started throwing up and hadn't stopped at 2 AM. He had lost everything he had in him and he was dehydrated to begin with. It always takes him about 2-3 days to completely rehydrate after these events. I was afraid we couldn't make our flights in 12 hours and had no way of contacting the US people still here.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, I emailed several of them just in case and Trey's wife saw the email (she is in Texas) and called her husband as he and three of the teammates were heading out the door to go to the airport for their flight. They came to the hotel to leave a phone with me and see what they could do. They couldn't do anything as the crazy military flights could only be changed if he took the same route home. That meant he couldn't leave until Thursday the 9th.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, he finally stopped throwing up, but had to totally stop taking sips of anything. We decided our best bet was to get him on the flight if at all possible. He was walking so slow and very glazed looking. I had to leave an hour before him, but I left him sitting at his gate with a bunch of German competitors. I knew they would take care of him, if he couldn't make it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am in a hotel in Amsterdam overnight and won't be home until tomorrow night. Dani has talked to him when he made it to Germany and was getting ready to board the plane to Chicago. He said it was a miserable flight and he is barely able to walk. I talked to him through Dani and told him to go to a clinic in Frankfort and forget the flight, but he would not do that. We had talked about that would be a better place for medical treatment than Latvia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He has not been able to hold anything down. I will be happy when he is in the states and am glad that if he gets sick on this plane, at least they will let him off on American soil. ha&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I originally thought it was food poisoning, but found out that several of the other competitors were also sick. They did not eat the same food on Saturday, as the US team ate off base. So, I do not know what bug he has, but it was awful!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, our journey is ending. Until the next one.......&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19554402-6406816148399079995?l=lorieskids.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://lorieskids.blogspot.com/feeds/6406816148399079995/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://lorieskids.blogspot.com/2007/08/and-adventure-really-begins.html#comment-form' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19554402/posts/default/6406816148399079995'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19554402/posts/default/6406816148399079995'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://lorieskids.blogspot.com/2007/08/and-adventure-really-begins.html' title='And The Adventure REALLY begins!!'/><author><name>Lorie</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://lorie.smugmug.com/photos/108229341-M.jpg'/></author><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19554402.post-6146040299235706147</id><published>2007-08-04T03:53:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2007-08-04T05:20:25.122-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Orienteer</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Wow, It was a LOOOOOOONG day yesterday. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RrQ3xIJbL1I/AAAAAAAAAb0/kIGMwpXsPXw/s1600-h/IMG_1716.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5094758395603005266" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RrQ3xIJbL1I/AAAAAAAAAb0/kIGMwpXsPXw/s320/IMG_1716.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;The Orienteer Run is supposed to be mapped to be run start to finish with no mistakes, by a very experienced Orienteer Runner in 100 min. Usually there are not very many teams that come close. Well, this years fastest time was about 2 hours 52 minutes. There were several teams that didn't finish it and some teams that were out there for 10 hours. It was unbelievable!!! They all said it was the longest and most technical course they have ever run. John's team finished in 3 hours 16 minutes. We were very very pleased&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RrQ3BYJbL0I/AAAAAAAAAbs/CJ9ngPU153E/s1600-h/IMG_1736.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5094757575264251714" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RrQ3BYJbL0I/AAAAAAAAAbs/CJ9ngPU153E/s320/IMG_1736.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; with them. They ran through a lot of marshy swamp land for the first part of the run, so their feet would get sucked into it and trying to run was crazy. Mike, the General on their team lost the soles to his boots during the run, but didn't tell the guys until the finish. There was one part that they had to send one guy to climb into different trees and other places to retrieve things. Some teams lost a lot of time, taking 10-25 min. on it. John took off and did it in 4 minutes. They said he was made to wear a little helmet that looked like a little dixie cup atop his head. It was the one time they laughed during the run. Grant, the Navy Seal on the team, was the orienteer and he did a great job. They were very excited when they finished. They did not take us out on the course anwhere this year to observe, but we were able to climb over a hill and see their grenade throws. They all thought they&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RrQ2b4JbLzI/AAAAAAAAAbk/hyA9JJJEmHM/s1600-h/IMG_1748.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5094756931019157298" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RrQ2b4JbLzI/AAAAAAAAAbk/hyA9JJJEmHM/s320/IMG_1748.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; were finished them and then had to run around the hill to the finish. Apparently, it was very hard to get back into running again. I took pictures at the top of the hill when they came out of the woods and for a couple grenade throws, then ran to the finish to get them coming in at the end. I always love it when I see them coming to finish. We had been waiting at the finish, hours before they even started. Our other team did great also, they did not do as well as they had hoped, but we were glad to see them finish. I do not know what the final tally was for teams that did not complete it, but I know one female team made it to a road, got a ride to a house and someone had to come pick them up.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RrQ8X4JbL6I/AAAAAAAAAcc/8bQ6jPAW3_8/s1600-h/IMG_1757.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5094763459369447330" style="FLOAT: left;

They did the Land O in 3 min. 27 sec. Nobody fell and they finished very clean. John had to start after the others. He then passed them and got down in the pit. He threw the other two out of the pit, then pulled himself out and continued on the run. That is why in some of the pictures you see him behind the others, then ahead, then back behind again. I forgot he was doing that and thought for a second, "oh my God, what happened, then I saw them being flung up, and here comes my muscley man!!!&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RrI9KYJbLqI/AAAAAAAAAac/-zP_nbF0k_s/s1600-h/IMG_0965.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5094201376999419554" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RrI9KYJbLqI/AAAAAAAAAac/-zP_nbF0k_s/s320/IMG_0965.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RrI9LYJbLrI/AAAAAAAAAak/9N6Z7a2wM-8/s1600-h/IMG_0975.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5094201394179288754" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RrI9LYJbLrI/AAAAAAAAAak/9N6Z7a2wM-8/s320/IMG_0975.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RrI9MIJbLsI/AAAAAAAAAas/nBrq4n0l2BY/s1600-h/IMG_0989.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5094201407064190658" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RrI9MIJbLsI/AAAAAAAAAas/nBrq4n0l2BY/s320/IMG_0989.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RrI9M4JbLtI/AAAAAAAAAa0/pSR8N4d2Bks/s1600-h/IMG_1019.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5094201419949092562" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RrI9M4JbLtI/AAAAAAAAAa0/pSR8N4d2Bks/s320/IMG_1019.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;The Swim O also went very well.

They pulled out all the stops. There was dancing, drinks, tons of food. It was a huge deal!!! The Latvian's are very excited to have all these countries here. Our athletes had one drink, lots of food, then we left early. But it was very impressive. Tomorrow night will be wild, there is a BBQ and the guys will be finished competing, so all bets are off. &lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RrRCg4JbMBI/AAAAAAAAAdU/DD1WH69q5mU/s1600-h/IMG_1320.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5094770211058036754" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RrRCg4JbMBI/AAAAAAAAAdU/DD1WH69q5mU/s320/IMG_1320.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;They can eat and drink to their hearts content.

John did real well in the Pistol shoot, not as well as he was hoping in the Rifle shoot. Their team is not where they wanted to be after today, but they are still in an okay spot to go on for the next events. Our other team did well, I am not quite sure where they are after today, but I think they are doing really well. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Here are some great pics from today. And I have to say, I do agree with Kim and Paula who say that John is my own "Marlboro Man."&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Let me know what the rest of you think? ha&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RrC38IJbLlI/AAAAAAAAAZ0/Bbbg1P_Q69g/s1600-h/IMG_0441.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5093773422163078738" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RrC38IJbLlI/AAAAAAAAAZ0/Bbbg1P_Q69g/s320/IMG_0441.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RrC37YJbLkI/AAAAAAAAAZs/U9KXCGpucEs/s1600-h/IMG_0469.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5093773409278176834" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RrC37YJbLkI/AAAAAAAAAZs/U9KXCGpucEs/s320/IMG_0469.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RrC384JbLnI/AAAAAAAAAaE/eWue7PhTUng/s1600-h/IMG_0508.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5093773435047980658" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RrC384JbLnI/AAAAAAAAAaE/eWue7PhTUng/s320/IMG_0508.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;I am trying to add more pictures to this page and will continue until I have to leave to go to a team meeting. However, don't forget, all pictures can be found on the smugmug site. I just have to download them each night while I am sleeping. I am trying not to bore everyone with too many pics. here.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;It has already had a lot thrown in this trip besides the sporting competition. After the Opening Ceremonies last night, we were escorted by police to supper, then back to a reception where delegates and big wigs from all the NATO countries were mingling and discussing all kinds of stuff. My eyes started glazing over.  But it was wonderful to see the respect these guys get from everybody. The other countries really seem to like the US team, and  even the US delegates want to speak to our guys.  They like to hear all about the military training that goes into training for this event. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19554402-2981023143319657696?l=lorieskids.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://lorieskids.blogspot.com/feeds/2981023143319657696/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://lorieskids.blogspot.com/2007/08/shooting-competition.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19554402/posts/default/2981023143319657696'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19554402/posts/default/2981023143319657696'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://lorieskids.blogspot.com/2007/08/shooting-competition.html' title='Shooting Competition'/><author><name>Lorie</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='21' height='32' src='http://lorie.smugmug.com/photos/108229341-M.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RrC38YJbLmI/AAAAAAAAAZ8/9R8GMsqspMs/s72-c/IMG_0473.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19554402.post-4054180404339790854</id><published>2007-07-31T15:45:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2007-07-31T16:24:17.359-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Opening Ceremony</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/Rq-SDoJbLbI/AAAAAAAAAYk/-TrNipap4Kg/s1600-h/IMG_0379.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/Rq-SDoJbLbI/AAAAAAAAAYk/-TrNipap4Kg/s320/IMG_0379.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5093450294593531314" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is my gorgeous husband at the Opening Ceremony.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is the whole US delegation, there are some athletes and some delegates.

Seeing as she won't be back for a while, I am taking things into my own hands. By the way, this is Dani. Alex just got back from GSP and she had a BLAST!! She was sad to leave and made some great friends. &lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RqtWeYJbLUI/AAAAAAAAAXs/1jMDCC3_wzM/s1600-h/Copy+of+100_1788.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5092258883550522690" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RqtWeYJbLUI/AAAAAAAAAXs/1jMDCC3_wzM/s320/Copy+of+100_1788.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RqtXjIJbLZI/AAAAAAAAAYU/RqWzJbDfJOI/s1600-h/z.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5092260064666529170" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RqtXjIJbLZI/AAAAAAAAAYU/RqWzJbDfJOI/s320/z.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RqtVr4JbLSI/AAAAAAAAAXc/dmINHBiTtIU/s1600-h/Copy+of+100_1390.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5092258015967128866" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RqtVr4JbLSI/AAAAAAAAAXc/dmINHBiTtIU/s320/Copy+of+100_1390.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RqtXjYJbLaI/AAAAAAAAAYc/mO1X48aR_iE/s1600-h/Copy+of+IMG_9424.JPG"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5092260068961496482" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dcY08i_SvwE/RqtXjYJbLaI/AAAAAAAAAYc/mO1X48aR_iE/s320/Copy+of+IMG_9424.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Alex and four of her girl friends decided to dance to a Backstreet Boys song for the talent show.  They dressed up as guys...alex got Howie...she looked so gross.  It doesnt even look like my gorgeous sister in the pictures.
