Instead of doing what I should be doing I have been making "stuff". One Sunday evening a few weeks ago we had our good friends over for dinner and I was looking for a centerpiece so I glued my glass vase onto a candle holder. Then wrapped a doily around and tied with some silver ribbon and added Hayley's vintage earring. I put it next to the mercury glass candle holder and floated water and candles. It is kind of frou frou but it was fun.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPPm4xBYb6psMKJk9Lq4dej1ZJ7ULwgcfFAILGb0oUQfgbNrc4J9T4MGbAanqavRLS6_ZYfp6_aIxgyYiOGisftPh42FnQhppd613IL-I_E7cYZEhjjajgA-VGr8I8GGeu530uTvSaxUg/s1600/lynne+crafts+009.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPPm4xBYb6psMKJk9Lq4dej1ZJ7ULwgcfFAILGb0oUQfgbNrc4J9T4MGbAanqavRLS6_ZYfp6_aIxgyYiOGisftPh42FnQhppd613IL-I_E7cYZEhjjajgA-VGr8I8GGeu530uTvSaxUg/s320/lynne+crafts+009.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5565959624280642834" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1WzrzCfUQ-khcU0vhs2uPpUpSFH7Kg7CXqFh-Mxbc1N-GcbWY6YdKntz_Lg9D_zXVaOtoYuGtotL_8ghkdvf4yepeNXB9vXIt84LlovZR1aohgoZwkKaZustg_H3bjAo5HUtz8K6ZlwI/s1600/lynne+crafts+007.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1WzrzCfUQ-khcU0vhs2uPpUpSFH7Kg7CXqFh-Mxbc1N-GcbWY6YdKntz_Lg9D_zXVaOtoYuGtotL_8ghkdvf4yepeNXB9vXIt84LlovZR1aohgoZwkKaZustg_H3bjAo5HUtz8K6ZlwI/s320/lynne+crafts+007.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5565959375208906530" border="0" /></a>Ruffle "balls"<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_kuLUtHXiuQJllcabqtzqEaHKaE7TYncakmC503MJ858f3n4VC0pDIHcseSL8iShVOKywSoymPULyj2FfGCOmwRtdbC0t5Vznau7X7GJfcD1xCpqJjn0Mud-rHu-aK-mZgBCQs2-MqMg/s1600/lynne+crafts+006.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_kuLUtHXiuQJllcabqtzqEaHKaE7TYncakmC503MJ858f3n4VC0pDIHcseSL8iShVOKywSoymPULyj2FfGCOmwRtdbC0t5Vznau7X7GJfcD1xCpqJjn0Mud-rHu-aK-mZgBCQs2-MqMg/s320/lynne+crafts+006.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5565959126120506594" border="0" /></a>Bunting done for Hayley<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSqywDNiRaGUkzjjG0cWZHZI6K-ggtqqq7r9n9u65_dnfd2tFstAgMrtSUSll6h8gC6GYFF-zqbGuEVSWYIGeKmn4O8Svo204DdrnVjXPmslPZ8BpxnXpzEkfZ1f46tEvAnB8ERgCMAZQ/s1600/lynne+crafts+005.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSqywDNiRaGUkzjjG0cWZHZI6K-ggtqqq7r9n9u65_dnfd2tFstAgMrtSUSll6h8gC6GYFF-zqbGuEVSWYIGeKmn4O8Svo204DdrnVjXPmslPZ8BpxnXpzEkfZ1f46tEvAnB8ERgCMAZQ/s320/lynne+crafts+005.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5565958919888119090" border="0" /></a>Bunting for Les<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxvSphNX4rR5B0h5gaA8ykiyLuqY1MNKgk-Gg4UnbXX4CSkITW1LcrUZTTSwe7mvTOQn3X_1IqeaClq8_X6eEWoYDcvVrY7jutxtO-5bnVLhEhjHmJZvdBK0jxRnEq1B44VtGreUt7otU/s1600/lynne+crafts+001.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxvSphNX4rR5B0h5gaA8ykiyLuqY1MNKgk-Gg4UnbXX4CSkITW1LcrUZTTSwe7mvTOQn3X_1IqeaClq8_X6eEWoYDcvVrY7jutxtO-5bnVLhEhjHmJZvdBK0jxRnEq1B44VtGreUt7otU/s320/lynne+crafts+001.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5565958711687945938" border="0" /></a>That's all folks!Lynnehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15479633783196083392noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-433774101142135074.post-54750510705974316142010-10-09T04:53:00.000-07:002010-10-09T05:10:24.576-07:00The Bike Race<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJmfj3SxEsCiP_1JzErQcuOl1yQkTAP-n5eiMxE8IkNtwM1An4HzzXRYlXJaU2p7jkLeV8AhcesDZr9CutxNWTXwsPYw9FL2TA4OBPKK6uMf6_C7CMmYWYpo3BIkC7ZNnnXdAi-Hpx6OA/s1600/summer+2010+222.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJmfj3SxEsCiP_1JzErQcuOl1yQkTAP-n5eiMxE8IkNtwM1An4HzzXRYlXJaU2p7jkLeV8AhcesDZr9CutxNWTXwsPYw9FL2TA4OBPKK6uMf6_C7CMmYWYpo3BIkC7ZNnnXdAi-Hpx6OA/s320/summer+2010+222.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5526014600853458770" border="0" /></a>This is another attempt to try to catch up on some of the events from this past summer. Actually, this event took place in September when Les and the kids were visiting with us for a week. That weekend Noel came up to Roch. to ride in a 100 mile bike race/ride with his friend Greg Creighton. It took place down in Bristol and swept along the lake by Naples. It ended up being a beautiful day with great temps and sunshine. We took Luke and Julia and attempted to be there at the finish line when they crossed. They were taking a lot longer to complete the 100 miles due to some detours they made along the way. Therefore, we tried to drive along the end of the route to cheer them on. Above is a pic of Luke and Julia climbing on a rock at a "rest stop" for the bikers. See the beautiful scenery behind them. It was glorious that day.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4ILP7XifiClLt7eZa2zcG2jjYR3WHvpyxb5gRlS27LN2_r_WJW_I1r3PuBYarxoGRBLqyHab8T61GjsHUBFxC_aVvvU4zCW84mRD9ZBa-xcOSCKr4HYPjOWPDMQtLw6hdlgFVRToPpBA/s1600/summer+2010+200.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4ILP7XifiClLt7eZa2zcG2jjYR3WHvpyxb5gRlS27LN2_r_WJW_I1r3PuBYarxoGRBLqyHab8T61GjsHUBFxC_aVvvU4zCW84mRD9ZBa-xcOSCKr4HYPjOWPDMQtLw6hdlgFVRToPpBA/s320/summer+2010+200.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5526014345016451410" border="0" /></a>Papa with one little monkey.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYW5sKvj8XzIhIx-5wHEVUsENxHxihtkHaDjZQ7A8xlMd88lcFiHZAyjnt4Y32wtv-70lZFSt-86vpXrVJRu7DcRq9D22hkQX23E-wwdZLZLkrWb6r40vvcmgPWZcv29PIH937LL07_AE/s1600/summer+2010+219.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYW5sKvj8XzIhIx-5wHEVUsENxHxihtkHaDjZQ7A8xlMd88lcFiHZAyjnt4Y32wtv-70lZFSt-86vpXrVJRu7DcRq9D22hkQX23E-wwdZLZLkrWb6r40vvcmgPWZcv29PIH937LL07_AE/s320/summer+2010+219.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5526013931614296082" border="0" /></a>The two amigos near the end of the race. They had just completed this really long uphill climb and were still smiling. We passed them in the car and when we passed Greg we yelled out the window to him. Julia was in her car seat in the back and did not quite get the fact that the Greg we were talking about was not Gregger her little cousin. When we mentioned Greg's sister Laura (wondering if she was in the race as well) Julia was very confused. After a little silence (where she was really thinking-wondering how she missed the fact that little Greg had a sister) she asked us if Greg's sister was older or younger. I said she was younger and Julia said "Is she one, since Greg is 2?" It was a definite "Who's on first" moment.

When Hayley and I got to JFK airport on Sat. 4/18 we spent 3 hours riding subways, train and lugging our 49 lb. bags up and down countless subway stairs and through turnstiles to get to our New Jersey hotel room. It was 1:30 in the afternoon and we had been traveling for almost 6 hours- it would have been quicker to drive! After a short nap we ventured out of the room to see some of NYC After another long subway ride we got back to Manhattan. We spent the rest of the day shopping at Century 21, glimpsing at Ground Zero, buzzing around Soho, and eating. We went to Lombardi's- supposedly the first pizzeria in NYC. It was YUMMY- then we went across the street to the place above-Rice to Riches- a smorgasbord of rice puddings. We had a combo of "French toast" and" vanilla extraordinaire". We thought we would never be able to eat all of it but we rallied and finished the whole thing.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiy0ae3HFOW6p7ru7C-6lc4V8gYYJyU2A2HLjSKcKCHo0kDIlf7wli9-7OP1U2DmGFeHCCJzJxy8OkNOEpkA2Vdv5WiGuZ15Q2vBz5-pK98J_Dq4vDILZ7-ciGwZupaEOJdFy_xDsM4yLk/s1600-h/spring+09+181.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiy0ae3HFOW6p7ru7C-6lc4V8gYYJyU2A2HLjSKcKCHo0kDIlf7wli9-7OP1U2DmGFeHCCJzJxy8OkNOEpkA2Vdv5WiGuZ15Q2vBz5-pK98J_Dq4vDILZ7-ciGwZupaEOJdFy_xDsM4yLk/s320/spring+09+181.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330992678934156226" border="0" /></a>Sunday am- Got up and conquered the subway again to go to church on 14th street. A church where the chapel is upstairs. It was a very busy crowded ward and the missionaries were from Russia and Brazil. Then we met up with GSD (who flew in that am) and we went to see the Manhattan temple across from Lincoln Center, then to get a really bad lunch at a little Greek restaurant. Then on to see the Little Mermaid. This is the back drop to the play. It was wonderful and we wondered about Julia and how we would ever get her to see it.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilkAs8ae2p8a6kxFiYqdBdcL9C4jFCtJ4cTNOLAlryrCQbAjK1n8IqYUgE8bcsnfM3Mk-fSfeF2TUuZ-UxmfRQV3qr_OJoZonerwNDITaT0LR6D9I2D0B935STN5OJvt7bzQchbl0yZNk/s1600-h/spring+09+185.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilkAs8ae2p8a6kxFiYqdBdcL9C4jFCtJ4cTNOLAlryrCQbAjK1n8IqYUgE8bcsnfM3Mk-fSfeF2TUuZ-UxmfRQV3qr_OJoZonerwNDITaT0LR6D9I2D0B935STN5OJvt7bzQchbl0yZNk/s320/spring+09+185.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330992673706327906" border="0" /></a>Hayley and I FREEZING out side of the theater.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVp_gwfVdlJY3MUPFbvGd4TK-4F_OwA3SmIJf3gmgBNuWbIJ0iH9LU9DcCUHc1QrAa9G7wm8xGLndCT1QZVY6ZBKgyFVXTCONIpB6FSjTa379fyv55DQXdhVdtJa0XQ9gZHOl7p88kx5k/s1600-h/spring+09+189.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVp_gwfVdlJY3MUPFbvGd4TK-4F_OwA3SmIJf3gmgBNuWbIJ0iH9LU9DcCUHc1QrAa9G7wm8xGLndCT1QZVY6ZBKgyFVXTCONIpB6FSjTa379fyv55DQXdhVdtJa0XQ9gZHOl7p88kx5k/s320/spring+09+189.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330992669805603570" border="0" /></a>A picture of Time Square after the play.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiq9wyDIaZrU0XXEr2ip-wd7JDtxGubq8UH_MQ8YdDHNqycSRC6pjefHVBCCogs5CVMJsEuqEv9YSBA2WhROvQIsYat3W2qnqjnHplBXZ549qoopdVc-jkT-cekmcvTMClZPh8YyDObHvk/s1600-h/spring+09+193.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiq9wyDIaZrU0XXEr2ip-wd7JDtxGubq8UH_MQ8YdDHNqycSRC6pjefHVBCCogs5CVMJsEuqEv9YSBA2WhROvQIsYat3W2qnqjnHplBXZ549qoopdVc-jkT-cekmcvTMClZPh8YyDObHvk/s320/spring+09+193.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5330992660759386098" border="0" /></a>We dragged GSD to this very popular Freeman's restaurant.

No not hanging from basketball hoops, but hanging with this crowd. Who would have thought that a "church" dance could be so lively! This past weekend was Youth Conference, held once a year for the teens ages 14-18 that go to our church. Others are of course invited. I guess "dancin</a>g" has taken on a whole new meaning for this group or else the dance moves got so fast that they ended up on the basketball hoop! Who said "What do you do for fun?" "Uh, we hang from hoops in the church gym, of course!"<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDPHtoTpAZcqchy9vHNp4P_6sMRXFqT3x1wpqjIScmvH9R-bQPJuat1DLn26B0x93xbzMguSSLp_cSZvabfp3tOi3W24QvBmHVHbf4Qto3wi8cD4ITyypFaJHyse1nwA1H33O_x3JjchQ/s1600-h/spring+09+145.jpg"><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhk7pXChy5J_RvvxTQ1Zkcr3N4K0tyly_05tT-KurosJMk3898uHbo4_uQqwCNEhyphenhyphen4t_MeTqwS525eWW1VFya4iYeP5nWy5pqLytBOuD8X4KfptESBx6r82ypw11knaDqAcbJmItguu8YE/s1600-h/spring+09+119.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhk7pXChy5J_RvvxTQ1Zkcr3N4K0tyly_05tT-KurosJMk3898uHbo4_uQqwCNEhyphenhyphen4t_MeTqwS525eWW1VFya4iYeP5nWy5pqLytBOuD8X4KfptESBx6r82ypw11knaDqAcbJmItguu8YE/s320/spring+09+119.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5324142484513680418" border="0" /></a>Me showing up for duty.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUS-NXqDjSfeQ4HOlZcGhrx-sWsBi0Gmh2lBFREBtE_1_F62zHt3jv6LtXC7cJK1U6kudJDu2lxlduJsont1cLQOFUV-B-gLgE0yFWojTbkT-H46XBJoE2XO5Vba812-FuYb48N5ZJMss/s1600-h/spring+09+154.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUS-NXqDjSfeQ4HOlZcGhrx-sWsBi0Gmh2lBFREBtE_1_F62zHt3jv6LtXC7cJK1U6kudJDu2lxlduJsont1cLQOFUV-B-gLgE0yFWojTbkT-H46XBJoE2XO5Vba812-FuYb48N5ZJMss/s320/spring+09+154.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5324142478441146802" border="0" /></a>My companion during the whole thing- the one with the glasses.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkPfr67Wi2PcCOfHGt3wkASLs-GllhLTB89ZFhBiY3epqoluG1D0X52QFN_VsuSZRVmKzv6fRlhiPr4MpwP7bK-F9XtJzQxaGEO6k4BmvSFBqDgljMBhSUW3oDfKo3VhC71cbJFTQ0EiE/s1600-h/spring+09+167.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgkPfr67Wi2PcCOfHGt3wkASLs-GllhLTB89ZFhBiY3epqoluG1D0X52QFN_VsuSZRVmKzv6fRlhiPr4MpwP7bK-F9XtJzQxaGEO6k4BmvSFBqDgljMBhSUW3oDfKo3VhC71cbJFTQ0EiE/s320/spring+09+167.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5324142473619711442" border="0" /></a>My other friends were there too.

Although they are quite self-sufficient, my expertise as a mother is always appreciated (or at least I tend to think so). Necessity is the mother of invention. In order to appease Greg's needy behavior (he has now learned the art of whining), I placed him in the laundry basket while making dinner. He was happy and I was happy, what a lovely combination. Below is a picture of hime pretending to be a viking in his makeshift laundrybasket-boat.</div><div style="text-align:center;margin:0px auto 10px;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgV9m0kEKi4-h3eFxNe1v3_02ADrta8P9MCJAvGwct3aEch98plc49K3-UnyurKIApk3j3a_p6tGzzvwlWsAI9ZYd-rBQtWcPHrVeQeCksqV8k32aGbTw6MUUjs8VuqutTUIRvlzCFPyvU/s1600-h/_MG_5636.jpg"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgV9m0kEKi4-h3eFxNe1v3_02ADrta8P9MCJAvGwct3aEch98plc49K3-UnyurKIApk3j3a_p6tGzzvwlWsAI9ZYd-rBQtWcPHrVeQeCksqV8k32aGbTw6MUUjs8VuqutTUIRvlzCFPyvU/s320/_MG_5636.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a> </div><div style="text-align:center;margin:0px auto 10px;">The other picture is of Greg on his parents bed and we were goofing around taking pictures.</div><div style="text-align:center;margin:0px auto 10px;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgABGyyqXwbXrhT3ebLKseeuLA4gc_uWnukBGucahiD4aUiRAYh4_X2MUZ7nphheVb-4rdyKbyIBgt_o0N9qceBJrNBg7dx-qK3lr4sLYx92lG2LQa65mwRsy0aMdes1kccvl2-0VtHG9k/s1600-h/_MG_5756.jpg"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgABGyyqXwbXrhT3ebLKseeuLA4gc_uWnukBGucahiD4aUiRAYh4_X2MUZ7nphheVb-4rdyKbyIBgt_o0N9qceBJrNBg7dx-qK3lr4sLYx92lG2LQa65mwRsy0aMdes1kccvl2-0VtHG9k/s320/_MG_5756.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a> </div><div style='clear:both; text-align:CENTER'><a href='http://picasa.google.com/blogger/' target='ext'><img src='http://photos1.blogger.com/pbp.gif' alt='Posted by Picasa' style='border: 0px none ; padding: 0px; background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 50%; -moz-background-clip: initial; -moz-background-origin: initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: initial;' align='middle' border='0' /></a></div>Lynnehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15479633783196083392noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-433774101142135074.post-26379455726868618472009-03-01T11:21:00.001-08:002009-03-01T11:36:54.481-08:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsVXX0MnwCtPokgFe-2g-K7MnjFNGzIg7TWCzUEOd2h52FHKQ8Gj1NBTLn574o7CIt5OeE33wBJydUc5a-pFGUkLuDZqa8faGzEbrCCP3X49DlGrCTTwCL_hRN4FOCBFJYLapW3Bl7vCQ/s1600-h/winter+08+09+453.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsVXX0MnwCtPokgFe-2g-K7MnjFNGzIg7TWCzUEOd2h52FHKQ8Gj1NBTLn574o7CIt5OeE33wBJydUc5a-pFGUkLuDZqa8faGzEbrCCP3X49DlGrCTTwCL_hRN4FOCBFJYLapW3Bl7vCQ/s320/winter+08+09+453.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5308302827823907170" border="0" /></a>Below- Hayley's party and Above the black and pink table!!<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhARk5Ax-A3nGIZyhxI8ixDPzDP64ooeYGkIbLqDhKjcQv-VdCglhFekQY6vGlpvGfXIxblh1Qs9wZsDnKoO4Ld9Dr7jSOBc_JhHvxvgDqOsVUiB9iZCn4iAE_AMTwYMdBeRDxqaCz2JcU/s1600-h/winter+08+09+451.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhARk5Ax-A3nGIZyhxI8ixDPzDP64ooeYGkIbLqDhKjcQv-VdCglhFekQY6vGlpvGfXIxblh1Qs9wZsDnKoO4Ld9Dr7jSOBc_JhHvxvgDqOsVUiB9iZCn4iAE_AMTwYMdBeRDxqaCz2JcU/s320/winter+08+09+451.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5308302823463895154" border="0" /></a>What a weekend we had here!! On Friday night Hayley had her "black and white soiree" to celebrate her 18th bday. She invited all girls and they came in black and white. when they arrived she was dressed in bright pink. I guess that is the thing to do now. She actually looked darling and was the "bell of the ball". I spent the whole day grocery shopping, decorating and making food for the party. I had to go back and forth to Sycamore 2x because furniture was being delivered that afternoon. So now we have a bed to sleep on and Dad has a desk in his office. The party was a big success and we all slept there (including Rusty) on Fri night. Then on Sat am I got up and started cleaning up the whole thing so that Dad and I could have a dinner party that night for 7 people. He worked in the basement and I cleaned, cooked and set up for the next pary. I do have to say that the food was excellent- probably the best dinner that I have ever made. Garlic cheese stuffed chicken with mashed potatoes, basil green bean, salad, bread and lemon squares with raspberry sorbet for dessert. Right after dinner we went to see the rpo do "That's Amore" with guest tenor Tonio DiPaulo. It was great. After church we had to go out to the house again and clean up. Tonight I am packing to go Kent to see Noel and Amber and Greg.What a weekend!!Lynnehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15479633783196083392noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-433774101142135074.post-19442539228003811682009-02-09T13:40:00.000-08:002009-02-09T14:09:44.971-08:00Lorisa, Mike, and Victoria<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhglvUsnCd5jAUGutEgu1PWEPfAzcuGLBa18MM3FtLEANGWcpRR4r-NSM4KSFIJc8B19Y70j78OqIWih04yhUcKLyrnwHDVxxMe8C31HJ4plkkbzIvk2JS_esA-eis-6xQgcWNLByWrLXw/s1600-h/winter+08+09+395.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhglvUsnCd5jAUGutEgu1PWEPfAzcuGLBa18MM3FtLEANGWcpRR4r-NSM4KSFIJc8B19Y70j78OqIWih04yhUcKLyrnwHDVxxMe8C31HJ4plkkbzIvk2JS_esA-eis-6xQgcWNLByWrLXw/s320/winter+08+09+395.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5300917038734598418" border="0" />Here is the LaRocca family. Last night they came for dinner and brought their little adopted Victoria. She looks very serious in the pictures but she was very observant and talked alot.She is 18 months old and still is not walking but she has a very advanced vocabulary and is very smart. When she was born she was left in a crib for the 1st 10 months of her life where she never learned to sit up, roll over, or pull herself up. She has a very happy home with Mike and Lorisa and it was GREAT to see all of them together at last. </a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_Hvl7XVcIaaW4YHnLuKccY67tGWaUN-lGde2SLY-5g-KjgQzrvPAsP-hMUIvRA2ks3Otbd6Iq9oSR_kzwAh2eBjXT4WTtu0M6xxr7afjyTlj-D1ZEaX1ysVt5fsio7KjRYvaVDGk-tsE/s1600-h/winter+08+09+391.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_Hvl7XVcIaaW4YHnLuKccY67tGWaUN-lGde2SLY-5g-KjgQzrvPAsP-hMUIvRA2ks3Otbd6Iq9oSR_kzwAh2eBjXT4WTtu0M6xxr7afjyTlj-D1ZEaX1ysVt5fsio7KjRYvaVDGk-tsE/s320/winter+08+09+391.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5300917031071830786" border="0" /></a>Snow ball Dance<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjq28Sj6k0URdFcJHNmjCEPLuRD73gIZRJSU_7I8ltfxItT_LSkcEat9w1MTsuTw04zcLs7spIya_ZRXFJk48eeVdqYzkT2qJB9ho3wsz3WSRBcs6cdrdE8LYZtVPcPVXIMPiw7uL07rg4/s1600-h/winter+08+09+382.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjq28Sj6k0URdFcJHNmjCEPLuRD73gIZRJSU_7I8ltfxItT_LSkcEat9w1MTsuTw04zcLs7spIya_ZRXFJk48eeVdqYzkT2qJB9ho3wsz3WSRBcs6cdrdE8LYZtVPcPVXIMPiw7uL07rg4/s320/winter+08+09+382.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5300917028239560754" border="0" /></a>Hayley and her date Chris going to her last snowball dance of high school.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsW8kDuJysYwoXi623DTKGggSdXJZgGBnWpNvnE9D7PXVxuBfYvPtrTt8D7KleLSSL6GDexQJWQOeuLyr92ufZVKAExo7HLkRlvpI04ZYzb-ZzLOeKdgn-RtUls7o6za2lpoeDK5m7wvw/s1600-h/winter+08+09+375.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjsW8kDuJysYwoXi623DTKGggSdXJZgGBnWpNvnE9D7PXVxuBfYvPtrTt8D7KleLSSL6GDexQJWQOeuLyr92ufZVKAExo7HLkRlvpI04ZYzb-ZzLOeKdgn-RtUls7o6za2lpoeDK5m7wvw/s320/winter+08+09+375.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5300917024573005522" border="0" /></a>The group they went with Top: George, Chris, Dave Bottom: Laura, Hayley, Jess<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHCESLmSbB8yVltBhi2T3lO7kuSkjamxdwVNWaKj7_hliSzkQVtZrfD2NrSBdTReRADm1T0mDxobSPvo4lyW392y6rac4NqK-yhGxhbrPFYn81sx1gh9lfnaL5T67WYFjIYvl7_RRnrQo/s1600-h/winter+08+09+381.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHCESLmSbB8yVltBhi2T3lO7kuSkjamxdwVNWaKj7_hliSzkQVtZrfD2NrSBdTReRADm1T0mDxobSPvo4lyW392y6rac4NqK-yhGxhbrPFYn81sx1gh9lfnaL5T67WYFjIYvl7_RRnrQo/s320/winter+08+09+381.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5300917018425354482" border="0" /></a>Hayley and her date.Lynnehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15479633783196083392noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-433774101142135074.post-67246984403672319662008-12-29T10:36:00.000-08:002008-12-29T10:36:24.772-08:00Sugar Cookie Frock GIVEAWAY!!!!<a href="http://grosgrainfabulous.blogspot.com/2008/12/sugar-cookie-frock-giveaway.html">Sugar Cookie Frock GIVEAWAY!!!!</a><div>I would like to win this!</div>Lynnehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15479633783196083392noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-433774101142135074.post-86368429104385643252008-12-02T05:40:00.000-08:002008-12-02T05:50:54.399-08:00Marco with the "fam"<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQ5w1_Wnh9EgiO_ApOHkglz8EgxGQOcJRX3zrBKXkrmrFhF7UEpXSM27tHlbDRTTW3Mfr9bRGimiHMRPe82aqJXZsu0WU2tF-E2qI9upRUXnVdpU4LFFh_O1Zl67FafSmXhD546ESVQNo/s1600-h/hd+marco+08+288.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQ5w1_Wnh9EgiO_ApOHkglz8EgxGQOcJRX3zrBKXkrmrFhF7UEpXSM27tHlbDRTTW3Mfr9bRGimiHMRPe82aqJXZsu0WU2tF-E2qI9upRUXnVdpU4LFFh_O1Zl67FafSmXhD546ESVQNo/s320/hd+marco+08+288.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5275188681018482386" border="0" /></a>Here we are in sunny Florida right outside of the church building in Golden Gate. I think this is probably going to be the Christmas picture this year. I don't know about you but it was a big shock to come home to snow and ice. We have had to shovel 2 times since we have been home. Thanks to all the family members for a wonderful vacation. I thoroughly enjoyed all the time that I was there. I really miss the gkids. They are the absolute highlight of my life. I am really lucky that I have the cutest, funniest and best grandkids on the planet. Probably a result of them having the most wonderful parents on the planet as well. I definitely think we should visit Marco again.
