This blog is nice but Facebook is more fun

So what have we been up to for the past 9 months? It seems that all of our life cycle events that occured were for the most part captured on the camera.... occassionally posted on Picasa........ and then in between its been "fun with facebook"-- posting stories, pictures, videos, status updates and more.

My friends get it, of course, but I feel bad for family members who used to look here to see what was new with the girls and the rest of us.

I don't think it's possible to make up for lost time but here is a list in NO ORDER of some highlights (and photos too!)

- Our big trip to Disneyworld in December 2007! Highlight of the year!
-A "first"- going camping for one night at Stone Mountain
-Two broken arms, fixed in time for the 4th of July
-Starting pre-K (at the same school)
-Finding more confidence in swimming at the pool with some lessons and as many evening/weekend visits as we could squeeze in
-A fabulous week at the beach with us, GramE, PopPop and Uncle Keith
-First "salon" manicures courtesy of DeeDee
-An unfortunate bout of pneumonia during spring break landing Leah in the hospital for 1 nite bookended by a fun visit to D.C.
-Another sucessful season of Tiny Tykes Soccer, a semester of Kindermusik, and a totally over the top dance recital!
-Visits from Aunt Myra, Uncle Alan, Isaac, Sara, Dee Dee and Poppy Joel
-Too many random colds, sniffles, coughs to mention
-Plenty of fun birthday parties with friends and outings to Zoo Atlanta, Children's Museum, High Museum of Art, and The Braves













So no promises on keeping this thing up to date. It's just too easy when I have facebook open all day! Even if no one ever looks at this blog, I find it's a great way to take a look back at what's been happening, outside the chaos of our day to day.
