Monday is here again.

Well, let's see. Not too much news here. Umm... the other night we updated our Family Collages. Phew!!! Fitting NINE brothers/sisters and families into the frame was quite a feat. But, it is great. We used some of the pictures we received at Christmas time. You are all so cute. And my family - I only updated a few pictures.

Also, one night we had an ice cream craving. So, Matt went to the corner store and bought two pints (two different flavors). Just for the record - we sat and polished them off in one setting. I am sure that I only ate about 1/2 of it and then, he finished mine off. I KNOW that I didn't eat all of mine. Like a few 100 more calories would have made a difference on top of the other 100's. ha ha ha.

Well, I recently had two great memories. First, Mom didn't you used to let us ride on the back of the wagon and we held onto the top of the car. It seems like maybe just in the driveway when you were coming or going.

Also, I had a funny memory. I had an uncle who was having a foreign guest stay at his house. Well, I happened to be there - was I cleaning or something?? and he called and was speaking FRENCH to me. Then, broken english. Crazy. He got me good anyway. Family. What can you do with them?????? ha ha ha.

Happy Monday!

Yes Tara, I did occasionally let you kids hop onto the back of the wagon! My dad used to let us for a few feet in the driveway sometimes too!! Funny thing to remember - a nice happy little thought! (Were you trying to get to sleep?? haha! "Think happy thoughts!") And as to your French speaking uncle, I believe you were staying with Rachel because we were all in Burlington after Grandpa's heart surgery and Pastor Jean Robert was arriving at Rachel's prior to Kendall getting back or something like that. Oh my goodness, that WAS funny!

Life is just a bundle of fun, ain't it???? See you soon - love ya!

Hi, Tara & Matt - I've been without my computer for a while, so just caught myself up on your blog. I enjoy both yours and Tiff's :-) Were you serious about maybe NOT taking your new job? And, why the comments about you going to the doctor? Are you ok? Hope to see you at Titus...Love, Aunt Mern PS: sorry about your car - is it "better" now?
