Blogging Sabbatical

So I've been on a little blogging sabbatical. Perhaps I can ease my guilty conscience by explaining myself. After many years of having Russ work full time and go to school part time his December graduation means that we now have time to just hang out together. Before, when he did homework I blogged, so naturally no homework means no blogging, right? Now we just talk and talk without stress or interruption. We've taken on a several projects together and I've found a few community groups that have kept me busy in the evenings as well.

Now that I'm behind I must catch up. Over the next week (or two) I will go through pictures and fill in most of what I've missed. The blog dates will match the date the events occurred, which might be against blogging ethics - but it's my blog and I'll do what I want to. (You would predate blog too if it happened to you.)

Easter 2009

We did a lot of normal things this Easter...

We also did some not so normal things...

My mistake!

Our kids were visiting with my parents. I was at home frantically looking for my missing keys because the kids and I were supposed to meet Daryl, Becky and Addy for dinner. I found the phone in my search and called over to my parents, hoping that if I gave them a heads up they would be ready when I got there.

A sweet little voice answered the phone, "Hello?"

"Hi," I said, "Hurry up and get your shoes on because I'm coming over to get you right now!"

Pause.

"Who is this?" she asked.

"This is your mom."

"My mom?"

"Naomi?" A gasp mixed with my laughter. "Sorry, I have the wrong number."

Whoops! Poor little girl.
