Sorry

We’ve been too busy lying around to update my blog.

No really.  We have been busy.  Being princesses.

We spent a lovely weekend away visiting some wonderful friends.  The little kids got to play and the bigger kids (I still don’t like the word adult when referring to myself) got to hang out. 

Molly decided to play a Nintendo DS racing game on the hilly ride back home and threw up all over the place.  We had the pleasure of traveling 4 hours back home with an extremely unpleasant odor in car. 

We all got over our colds/coughs/sinus infections.  Then I was blessed with the stomach virus.  It came out of nowhere and I didn’t know what hit me.  I was completely out of commission.  I’m talking body aches, twisting stomach, headache, chills/sweats – not to mention the obvious that we all know goes along with the stomach virus.  

SO, now we’re good to go.  I hope.  I’ve made a few things but haven’t taken pictures yet.  I just thought I had to say something so everyone knew that I was still around.  I was doing so good with my “resolution” of trying to post more.

Now we just sit around praying for it to get warm enough to go outside.  We hang out by the windows trying to remember what it’s like to play out there.  It’s this time every year that the cold is just too much to deal with.  Depressing. 

This is what we feel like.  Actually this is our Grinch face.  Molly is doing Dr. Seuss week in school so I thought I’d show off my talent.  She quickly caught on and makes this face approximately 80% of the day.

I love your Grinch faces...pictures, and your blog.

I agree with the cold at this point reaching its depressing stage. I'll make that face with you!

Oh no with the car ride home! Had that happen before, and it's no fun, lucky for us it was summer so we rolled the windows down.

I'm glad everyone is feeling better now, love the pictures!

I wanted to say thanks for your comment on my blog about your dress tutorial. I tried it, LOL, the kids were wild, loud, and I ended up sewing wrong. than wronger. than sooo soo wrong. In the end, the front and inside piece were back/front, I sewed the ribbons "inside" the layers, and I forgot to leave an opening to turn it back out. I can't sew with my kids jumping around. Luckily it was 1.00 fabric from Walmart to practice on. lol. I'll try again when I get over the trauma.

Oh, another fun post (minus the car sickness). Thanks for sharing -- yes, especially the grinch faces. :)

And we are SOOOOO sick of winter too. And yours was probably even a little worse than mine. Spring! Spring!

Glad you are all feeling better, we are just getting over all the feeling crapiness of traveling ourselves. You know Floyd still talks about Molly all the time. His birthday party list included his two best friends and Molly, the girl with the glue gun....as she is now known round here. We'd love to see you guys when you feel like up to it.
