Tomorrow my dad is taking me and the kids to the beach. It is going to be hot, so it should be fun. I think I almost have Beck and John convinced to play hookie from work tomorrow and join us.
Fish heads, fish heads, roly poly fish heads
Fish heads, fish heads, eat them up YUM!

Almost forgot, we're treating ourselves to a fabulous meal tonight....prime rib and caeser salad, it's almost ready.
Enjoy your time with hubby! ...
Kathy--glad to hear the move in went well. I'm here for you friend! Especially b/c I'll need a shoulder or two on Wednesday morning!
Tomorrow I am taking the kids down the shore. My sister rents a house for 3 weeks every year and has the rest of us down a day. I am bringing wings with that marinade that I posted here a while ago...YUM!
Hey all! Well, I've had a pretty decent weekend. Emma and I had an "All about Emma" day on Saturday.

Buddy has a 4 PM appointment with the Dr. I am going with him and Marisa will watch Nola for me. I am not sure what good I will be, he was having a CT scan and I was convinced it was an MRI. No idea what teh difference is but I do know they are not the same. I hope that between the two of us we understand the Dr. He is really uncomfortable and was not looking forward to going back to work today. Last Thursday he told me that when he would shift he needed to use his arm to pick his leg up. His truck has 13 speeds and when he is driving in the hills he needs to use the clutch a lot. When I told him that if it is a stone it may hurt when he passes it he was shocked. He thought that it just Poofed and was gone . Maybe so but the folks that I knwo who have had thm have not smiled when they told me about them.
Last night Doug and I celebrated our Birthday's with the family. We grilled Sirloins, Beer brats, and Chicken breasts. There was a potato salad, macaroni salad, pasta salad, creamed cucumbers, Baked potatoes (for Matthew), baked sweet potatoes, and a chocolate truffle birthday cake. The whole family, sans Jay, was there even Doug's parents. A great time was had be all and the food was pretty good too.

Nancy, I spoke to Gretchen Friday. She is doing as well as can be expected. Her sister was in for a visit but returned home. Hailey was able to have some quality time with her Grand Dad. Kenny, is just being a wonderful support & strength for her.
She asked for continued prayers of mercy.
Good luck at the doctor's! I hope the news is good, and that it's "just" a kidney stone, although that will not be fun! I have had 18 stones, and none of them have just "poofed" away! It's not a fun process! If, however, he can catch the stone, they can analyze it, and possibly give him medication to prevent another one (depending on the type of stone it is).
My brother passed his first kidney stone while hunting in the mountain. He was alone, and it really freaked him out. He called his wife, but she really didn't give him much sympathy, since he had left her the week before to go hunting while she was miscarrying. They have a really odd relationship, but it seems to work for them!
Tell Buddy that I'll be praying for him!
Aimee- how are you feeling?

Marisa is cooking tonight so we are having a New England Boiled dinner. YUM!
We have put the minivan on hold till September as recommended by a nice salesman we met. He think there will be better rates and more inventory once cash for clunkers slows down sales. I never thought I would want to be a minvan mom but now I can't wait.
Ellen, thank you so much! I appreciate your kindness & support
