I Love You, You Love Me.....



Well Barney came to the mall Saturday! Christopher was so happy to see him! I was a little worried because the first time Britany saw Barney (around the same age as Christopher is), she was PETRIFIED! But, as you can see, Christopher ran to his friend Barney with open arms! =)

Sweet 16...


--

My sweet Taylor is 16 years old! I'll say it again~where did the time go?? I celebrated her birthday while I was up there a couple of weeks ago. I think the pictures are in the slideshow below. I got her a silver jewelry box which I had engraved along with a beautiful ring. Nana and Papa gave her a pretty bracelet which they had engraved. We had a yellow rose and sweet 16 balloon delivered to the school from The Blossom Shop. She was very happy about that. Jeff had cake last night. He gave her two watches that belonged to his mother along with some Coach perfume. Jamie got her a new digital camera. Sounds like she had a great birthday!






All Hail Queen Britany!!


Congratulations Britany! So weird...24 years ago I was crowned Homecoming Queen at FHS! Her date's name was Abraham "Abe" and our king was Abra Feurestein...

The kids don't dress up anymore for Homecoming, which is really sad...just jeans. Crazy. Anyway, this is a picture of her with her date. Most of you already know the major drama of her difficult break-up with her beau of almost two years; Dustin. This is the only picture that I have and I "stole" it from her photobucket account. *sigh* Apparently, she isn't happy with ANY of the pictures from that night...so, this is it!

Yes, New Hampshire is very pretty this time of year, however; yesterday, I was reminded of why I love Florida so much! I took Christopher to Busch Gardens and it was the most gorgeous day! It was about 86 degrees with this absolutely beautiful breeze. We had a wonderful time at Busch Gardens. I like to go there and listen to all of the different accents of the families as they pass by me, etc. There are ALOT of British people there every day. I've also heard German, Sweedish and French accents to name a few. It is neat to think that I get to visit a place like that so often, when it is such a big trip for many. Interesting!

New Hampshire Fall 2008

The Accidental Tourist!

I never would have thought I'd see the day where I would become a tourist in New Hampshire! I was officially a "leaf peeper". An "accidental tourist"! Yep, that was me standing in the middle of Main Street in Franklin, snapping pictures!

I had a wonderful visit in New Hampshire this past week. It was so nice to see my "goyals" again. Christopher was in his glory. Bonnie Walshaw and her boyfriend Bert, opened up their home to us and treated us like royalty! Thanks so much you two! You are angels!

Sarah came over to Bonnie's on Wednesday and the three of us had a gab fest! It was nice getting caught up on all the gossip!

Hope is quite a good little field hockey player! She is aggressive and not a bit afraid of getting in there for the ball! Keep up the good work Hopey!

After missing all last season, I finally got to see Taylor cheering! She is so adorable. I was disappointed that I didn't get an opportunity to watch Britany doing her "nastics" (as Christopher says), but she was busy preparing for the SAT's and didn't go to gym. Oh, yeah...did I mention that she is the Senior class Homecoming Queen candidate? =)

Lisa Henry ~ sorry, I didn't get back to you! Every time, I thought of calling you back, I'd look down at my phone and it said "looking for service" ! I hope Nicole had a great birthday and you had fun at the fair. Maybe next time...

Colin really enjoyed his conference in Vermont. It was the perfect time to schedule a conference there. He said the scenery was beautiful. He had a relaxing, scenic drive over to New Hampshire and I took him on a quick tour of Danbury, Hill and Franklin! We had a nice dinner with Charmaine, April,Steve and the kids. (Hopey was the only one missing as she was camping with her horse!)

Christopher is happy to be back home, as evidenced by the mess in his toy room! I think he had to take every single toy out and get reacquainted! We are hoping to get to Busch Gardens today...I NEED the exercise for sure. I ate anything and everything while on my "vacation". Time to pay the piper I guess!

Now, I guess I'll see my "goyals" again for Thanksgiving!
