Hello? Is anybody there?

So, Uh, where DOES the time go? Since my last post, I've kissed two, yes, you read that right, TWO computers goodbye. Does ANYONE have that kind of bad luck? Well, in losing all of my email contact list and a few photos (thank heavens for the separate hard drive Dad encouraged me to buy), I sorta lost heart as well. But now, thanks to a SAINTLY neighbor who BUILT me the fabulosa machine I'm using today, I'm up and running.

We've wished three kids Happy Birthday, as well as myself, said goodbye to my 91-year-old Grandma (what a lady!) and lived life as fully as we know how. Here are a few photos of the past three months...if I can find them on this new computer...
