But wait, there's one more cutie DS to oogle:
My DS17 Jordan's senior pictures...
He's a straight A's Sterling Scholar (whatever that is!)
Way to go!OK, I'm in a bit of a hurry here, but wanted to quote a few and post my loss. That's right - loss! After staying the same last week (I blame AF!), I LOST 4.2 lbs! That brings my total to 19.2 lbs!

She's right - you've got time - just keep slimmin'!Congratulations!And I must say, you WILL look mahvelous! I just know it... and we will help you!
But you lost - one at a time -keep at it - we can do it!
I know - what a shock! Maybe someday I'll start eating veggies!
Did you ever see the naughty movie they did that was all clips of videos they had including Girls on Film? I have a copy somewhere....X-rated music videos that today would be mainstream!John was wearing a black t-shirt with a buttoned down oxford that was red over it. Black leather pants and black boots. (just slightly obsessing here)
Happy Birthday Melinda!!!
Opps sorry I tried to wait for everybody......oh and yesterday was no cheating! UM said nothing about today!!!
Happy Birthdya to one sweet Peeps!!
Love ya!
Brigitte
oooh ahhhh Wendy - hot hot hot - he has good genes!!! Definately!!
I know its in 2 years, and I know she is hoping for a backyard wedding and a BBQ!! (hard to believe, but that's what dh says... I'm still going to push for a beach wedding, Ft Myers FL sounds good to me!!)
I know I wanted to say more, but dh has declared it a champagne night, so he's popped a bottle, and we have to tell his mom!! (who hasnt talked to dh in 6 weeks!!
I have ALOT of catching up to do. I wasn't able to get online yesterday because a tree fell in my back yard and knocked all of the electrical wires and cable/telephone wires from the house. It also knocked the electrical box completely off the house. Needless to say, it was a mess. I had to call an electrician, then the electric company then the cable/telephone company. Everything is back to normal this morning, thank god. So, I have to few more pages to catch up on. You guys add these pages on quickly, WHEW. I have to go do some reading now
that man.
Good attitude. You know I can't really think of this whole thing we are doing as a "diet". These have to be permanent lifestyle changes for me. It doesn't mean that even if my body looked exactly the way I wanted it to one day, that I could go back to my old ways. This is forever! But I can't deprive myself or I am doomed to failure. Some days are good. Some are bad. Everyday I jump back on the wagon and try again.
Hi, Grumpy, Bee, and sweet girls. Loved the pictures of the sledding. We've missed you. Happy to see you've recognized that your baby is growing up and not just standing around with your fingers in your ears like some dads singing "la, la, la, la, la".
YES YOU DID! (times 2 plus 3)Thanks anyway!!!
I got the age right, didn't I?
OK....this is not what I wanted to quote. Just wanted to say I followed the Simon story yesterday like a soap opera. It was a cute and hilarious story. You have such a great sense of humor about you! I love that you can laugh at yourself and your Simon obsession. Plus you are a very good writer. It's the ability to evoke those sensory reactions in the reader...like the smell of Simon...that make the written word come to life. It puts us right there with you. Brilliant, I say! PS..Teynor is gorgeous. (as is his girlfriend!)
And of course we know you wouldn't have done any illegal sledding...you plain old didn't have time wiht all the attack the suprerstar acitvities you had to keep up with.
I know I wanted to say more, but dh has declared it a champagne night, so he's popped a bottle, and we have to tell his mom!! (who hasnt talked to dh in 6 weeks!!
Congrats, Sandy!
Maybe you could pass down your bride ears to your new daughter in law and save on costs???
I told my kids they have to elope, I refuse to pay for weddings. So she says she is getting married in a white bikini by my brother in laws pool.
Works for me!
Oh wait, that doesnt mean I have to wear a mother of the bride bathing suit, does it?
It's not midnight here yet, so Happy Birthday Melinda.
I got the age right, didn't I?
She'll be working at Great America. It's in Santa Clara. Here's the website if anyone's curious. http://www2.cedarfair.com/greatamerica/index.cfm She's almost 17. I worked their when I was a teenager too, but only as a cashier. I'm very proud of her.
I'm glad things are back to normal.
Love all the cute family pictures. For you moms with a child who's engaged, I recommend sending your child and their fiance(e) on an Engaged Encounter. It is a retreat for couples planning to get married, and gives them a chance to focus on their plans and dreams for the future, not just wedding day plans. DH and I volunteer for the Catholic ministry, but I know other churches have this too. We paid for our nieces to go before each of them got married, and they both said it was the best wedding present.
Dawn, love the Simon LeBon story. I will admit that Simon was better looking than Bowie in the '80's, but to me, Bowie's voice is like melted dark chocolate. DS and I went to see him last year at DS' request, and it was an awesome experience.
Oh, that reminded me. DH gave me the most romantic birthday present. Our wedding was on a budget, and our dance music was a reel to reel my then BIL recorded of songs we chose (including a couple of Bowie songs; no Duran Duran). We had a copy of the music on cassette, then CD, but it was flawed and the sound would fade in and out. For my b-day, DH bought all of the songs and burned them onto cds and played them in the car while we were on the way to Reno. I
) Dh and I missed our 10 year HS reunion (oh so long ago) because we had Bowie tickets! WOw what a great concert.
Let us know how that goes!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY MONICA!!!
Pixie, is just kidding. We can all guess how this went.
Hey, have you guys seen the Prestige. David Bowie is in it. He is Tesla. I kept saying, that really looks like David Bowie - but he is so old. It was him with black hair and a mustache and wrinkles.
Thanks! I appreciate your kind words...Treyner is gorgeous...but more important...a really kind hearted person...Thank Gosh..he doesn't look like his Mother...or his father...hmmm...
We used to use the trays at college to go sledding or "traying as we called it". Every once in a while the kitchen staff would put up a notice that they were running out of trays and asking us to bring them beack to the dining hall!
So funny!!! Really...not so glamourous life...just fun - instances
Your son and his girlfriend are a good looking couple! Your son bears just the slightest resemblance to that guy from Duran Duran...care to explain?
(see beaver claw comment from yesterday)I'm a huge Bowie fan too! I Love him (but not in the totally obsessed off the wall way in which Dawn loves Simon
i couldn't resist weighing myself this morning and i've lost 3 pounds since friday!!!!!! yeah, i know i shouldn't get too excited because people tend to lose weight faster at the beginning of their diet, but i'm very proud of myself. i've stayed around 1,200 calories for the past two days and drank lots of water. thanks so much for all the advice i've gotten from you guys - it's obviously helped!
