I had 18 boys because I got Michael and Julio that year. I saw Mrs. Fox’s pictures from summer of most of the group. They’re not little tykes any more! Will let you know what the plans are ASAP! Poor Annie!

Hey – I FINALLY got caught up on your posts!!!! Thanks for the birthdsy wishes for Annie! Rick’s family cuts you off from cards at 18 – so the mailbox was empty…my brother sent an really good card, so that sort of makes up for it; my sister called her, but my other sister….ummm, she’ll remember later in the week.

Your holidays at school sound so…..festive? We are crazy with the practices, but really, with Andrea this year, I think she is the only one losing sleep. She is doing a great job. Annie is accompanying. Guess I would rather have the craziness than the humbug….but I am REALLY tired this year. Remember the 16 boys (I think you had 17) and 4 girls year? Yeah, like that only double!!!!!! Many ADHD, one ED (not labeled, but you know…) Can’t let my guard down. VERY sneaky bunch. We are on day 72 (108 to go!!! But who’s counting?)

We cannot find the jello-mold-yielding perp….

So, what are your plans for your visit? Joe will be playing up at Hi-Way Harry’s Saturday night when you are here. And Donna is coming? We can show her a good WI time!

We will have snow!

hahaha! I have a horrible apartment manager..she never even called me back! But corporate office reluctantly sent a plumber after they verified it was my only bathroom…but the PLUMBER ROCKED! He ended up giving me a brand new throne and fixed 3 more things before he left! Yay!! Definately a Happy ending!! (he also left me his phone number *wink* )

okay – I’ll give you a little sympathy on this one (very little) because you brought my kids home a few times…now I’m not driving as much (in fact, I get dropped off in the morning) but I am making bus/airline reservations for a little commute to MN…

Had to write because of the touching story. You know how I love stories of looking out for the “little guy”…I was touched. Hope all is well…we miss you!

I checked the gift shop, and you’re right. Lots of duck-themed stuff, though!

Is that a partridge? The Gift Shop didn’t have any of those on dish towels or I would have done all my Christmas shopping…. And that wire mesh for the windows, what aisle can I find that in?
