My email was down all day and still is, so that is a drag. I hope I can check it when I go into work in the morning. Last night I had conferences from 2-8. I teach 43 kids total, and I had 16 families come. I expected more, but I guess since everyone has the entire week off from school, they found more exciting things to do than attend conferences. Today we went swimming this morning and then to Pizza Hut for lunch. We picked up Chase on the way home and he has been here today playing with Cobe. Cobe is going to his house tonight to spend the night, so I'll drop them off when I run out to get groceries later tonight. I am making a jello salad (cherry jello, cool whip, cream cheese, mandarin oranges, sugar) for Thanksgiving as well as an oyster casserole. Now before you are grossed out, it is absolutely DELICIOUS! I guess you would have to like oysters to enjoy it, but I do, and I love it. Everyone in Ryan's family chips in and brings something so that his mom doesn't have to make the whole meal. Cooking in the mid-west is completely different than in the south, or maybe it is just a difference in what my mom serves and what his family is used to, but at least I get to enjoy both- his family for Thanksgiving and mine for Christmas. We are going to my BIL and SIL's house around 12:30 to enjoy a big delicious feast and all 9 grandkid/cousins will be there. They will have a blast all being together and Amanda is so kind to host that many people. I appreciate it!
I just placed my order with Selena for all of the pictures she took of my kids and our family at the beach. I am getting one big 16x20 to hang with the one she took of the boys several years ago. She put a quote on that one, and she found the perfect quote for the new one as well. I can't wait to get it. I"ll keep the quote a surprise- you'll have to come see it. :-)
Lynette has been so kind to help me with all of the other pictures of the kids. She introduced me to Winkflash and placed my first order for me. I proudly placed my second order today. One more new piece of technology that I know how to do. ( I admit I had to call her to figure one piece out- oh well! ) I am sure next time I can do it myself. :-) She hopes so too I'm sure!
No pictures to post with the borrowed camera yet. I am hoping to take some of the family Thanksgiving, so then the next step will be to learn how to post them. Not quite sure if I can use the picture program for my other camera to post????? I guess you'll see soon enough.
Off to drop Chase and Cobe off at the Medendorp's.

Can't wait to see pics from Selena. Enjoy Thanksgiving with the family. We don't know what we're doing yet.
You can use the same program... no problems there (or at least there shouldn't be, but who knows!) I don't mind helping either... but I'm guessing you have that figured out by now! :) See ya soon! (Did I give you that remote for the camera???)
