It's been a while
It has been a while. Sorry for the delay in blogs, but it has been busy. We had my birthday which I have a funny story about, more on that in a minute. Then we had Maggie's first birthday yesterday. Next is Andy's big 30 birthday. Now that things are slowing down I feel like I am trying to get sick. I am going to fight it with all I have got. Please pray I don't get sick. Better yet pray my kids don't get sick. Emma is back in school and I don't want her to have to miss days. She has been sneezing and seems to be stuffy. That is a bad sign. Also if Mags gets sick she will sleep even less than she already does. I don't think I can handle that. PLEASE pray we don't get sick. So my birthday. My friend Jeni got a babysitter for her daughter and my girls. Then Andy and I, Huba and Jeni, and my parents all went to this great restaurant The Red Door. We were hanging out, eating, chatting, having fun without the kids. Then at one point Huba tells us that everybody made fun of his pants at work. We all asked him what was wrong with his pants. He then stands up and shows us his pants. I wish I had a photo, they were soooooo funny that I laughed the rest of the night and I laughed so hard I cried for about a half hour. First I have to tell you a little something about Huba, he is the kind of person that doesn't really get embarrassed, and he can't leave things alone. He always points things out and says something about everything. He is really funny, the kind of person you can't help but love. His pants were a chocolate brown color, but they looked like someone had bleach on their hands and wiped their hands all over the pants. The best part was as we all laughed Jeni tells my Mom and I that he isn't gay, and Huba goes on to defend the pants. Telling us they are really comfortable, they have a nice texture, and they were only $3.99. The more he talked to more I laughed. I know this story doesn't even come close to doing the evening justices, but I had to share because I am still laughing about it.

I'm glad you had a good time! Huba sounds like a funny guy.
He is great I think you would love him. I don't ever think I have been around him and not laughed.
Hey Mel - I pulled up google earth today and was looking at the US and there was this giant yellow thumbtack in the North West.
And then I thought - "I wonder what that is. It's bigger than all the rest of the markers on the map."
And then I zoomed in to Moscow.
It was your house.
And I started to laugh.
The picture is newer - from this year. Your car is still in the driveway.
And there is this white car that is stopped at the entrace to your street from North Almon Street. Maybe he's broken down. Serves him right. He should have been walking.
But maybe it was too cold. Because it does get cold up there, I hear. And maybe he doesn't have any shoes. And that's why he's driving his white car.
You guys should take up a collection in your commune and buy the man some shoes. He's practically your neighbor. I mean -he's living out of his car, right there in the middle of the intersection.
You can probably see him if you walk out into your driveway.
That would be easy for you to do. You probably have two or three pairs of shoes.
At least.
But not poor old Mr. Winkleston.
All he wanted to do was to serve his country in Vietnam, and now he's homeless, living in his car in the middle of the intersection.
All the hippies and peace activists blame him for the war.
Listen, HE WAS JUST DOING HIS JOB! Don't you care for him?
I mean, I'm a peace lover, too. But we shouldn't blame him.
Why can't we just get the guy a pair of shoes?
If I lived there, I would give him mine.
I wish I had a commune. I like hemp clothing.
Oh mel. U r sooooo selfish. That poor old man!
Mel, I for real did NOT leave that last comment...Does that sound anything like me? I would say something like, " that guy has nothing better to do except leave long ass comments and hack into other peoples accounts to leave comments from them that aren't from them"...or something like that!
Yeah whatever Joey said! But more for me?? OK well have a good time doing what you do. I hear you are coming to town. I know all the girls are excited to see you.
You are coming to town? When? That is so cool!
You're not so selfish. I can't believe Jessica would say that.
Yeah you're coming to town?! I didn't know that! How come J knows but NOT me?! And Joey's being a mentirosa! Tell him to read Revelation 21:8!
