have you all heard the news about Britney Jamie Lynn Spears?? You might want to make a pit-stop over here today to check it out. it’s a big one, folks.
we are officially in duffle bag hell right now. My kids are great travelers. and by great, i mean ‘really, really beastly’. They scream, they whine, they cry, they are constantly hungry and the snacks i bring are never the right ones, they can’t agree on a movie, it’s a pleasure, really. So we, like geniuses, decided not only to fly to atlanta for our yearly family chrismukah festivities, we decided to save some money and DRIVE to Buffalo, spend the morning there, and then FLY on to the Atlanta. genius i tell you.
saving grace…
mmm…can you say homemade reese cups?? mmm….

and this years’ 2007 picture will include a new addition to the family, my niece who i’ve yet to meet, Evangeline.
seeing my sister…who i so rarely get to see…
and have a mentioned the loot?
i’m looking forward to my time off from work…things have been crazy lately between trying to find a read-aloud (still) that’s for grade 5 and multicultural and is action-based and has a male protagonist, and is pretty recent, but isn’t too well-known (i’m taking recommendations, if anyone should have any)…and finding obscure pictures in strange places…i still have a million things to get done before Christmas…and i’m sure my nanny is looking forward to having the next couple weeks off (AND she’s so graciously agreed to housesit for us. she’s awesome)
don’t worry…i’ll be posting from Atlanta…both here and on Juice.
wish us luck! (we are gonna need it)
