Happy Birthday to our baby...</strong></span><br /><span style="color:#99ff99;"><strong></strong></span><br /><span style="color:#99ff99;"><strong>Though I never held you in my arms, never got to touch your little face or hold your little hand, though I never got to smile at your little piggies or feel the joy of your first cry, I didn't feel you kick in my belly or watch you grow in the ultrasounds, I never gave you a "proper" name or even your first bath, and I will never feel the joy of taking you home in my arms or the stress of our first night alone, I may never change your diapers or help you to walk, never teach you to ride a bike or hold you after you take your first fall, I will never get to help you through school or your first heartache after your first crush, I will never watch you graduate kindergarten or even high school, never see you fall in love, and though I'll never look into your eyes and get to say these sweet words...... I will always love you. I thank God for allowing me to carry you, and I wish I could have kept you. I know you're safe and happy, surrounded by God's peace and love. I rest assured that you will spend your Birthday with family and that somehow you know I will always hold you in my heart... a mother's love knows no bounds. You touched my life in a way no one has....Happy Birthday Peanut!

Definately for the better! There has been some bumps and bruises along the way, but for every bump or bruise we acquire, we only grow stonger and more in love. I know we cry some times...laugh some times....fight some times, but there isn't anyone else I'd rather do that with. They say the first year is the toughest, trying to bring two lives together as one, and you know what.. They are right...the first year is tough, but we've made it...and now we only have forever to go!<br /><br />I took F to the Carlisle Inn in Sugarcreek for our anniversary. I will let her tell you the details, but it was beautiful. Not to mention relaxing. We even went swimming...TWICE! Then upon checkout of the Inn, we drove through Amish Country and went to a couple of our favorite spots. Yeah Yeah, call us old...Driving through Amish Country and all....But after all, we are now an official old married couple!<br /><br />Last year at this time we were enjoying Las Vegas. Man, do I miss it! I also miss all the family getting together. Do you think we should get re-married every year, so everyone can get together again??<br /><br />But after 1 year of marriage..all I have to say is...<br /><br /><span style="color:#ff0000;">I love you F! and thanks for EVERYTHING!</span>Larry and Stephhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09827391730842391494noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4286128789870364453.post-34861106524329154252008-05-01T19:08:00.001-07:002008-05-01T19:29:28.176-07:00Just a little update...So yeah, it's been a while<br /><br />Just wanted to give a little update on a few things going on around here.<br /><br />First off, You have to check out the new Femmie mobile. It's a 2008 Chrysler Sebring LX. We traded in the PT Cruiser, being a stick shift, F couldn't drive it. And, of course, with rising gas prices, the Jeep's gas mileage had a lot to be desired.<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Ld7bViahJgU/SBp45a74NcI/AAAAAAAAAAM/lJXwAkx-Un4/s1600-h/000_0130.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5195598048003634626" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Ld7bViahJgU/SBp45a74NcI/AAAAAAAAAAM/lJXwAkx-Un4/s320/000_0130.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />The kids are growing like weeds, seems like yesterday they are babies, and today they're all grown up. Where does the time go.<br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Ld7bViahJgU/SBp61674NeI/AAAAAAAAAAc/n1hsaRiEHOo/s1600-h/000_0135.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5195600186897348066" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Ld7bViahJgU/SBp61674NeI/AAAAAAAAAAc/n1hsaRiEHOo/s320/000_0135.jpg" border="0" /></a><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Ld7bViahJgU/SBp6cq74NdI/AAAAAAAAAAU/7E0BITNDA-I/s1600-h/000_0123.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5195599753105651154" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Ld7bViahJgU/SBp6cq74NdI/AAAAAAAAAAU/7E0BITNDA-I/s320/000_0123.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />F has had it tough lately, with all these doctors and hospital visits lately. But, fortunately, we have her all nursed back to health. She is now in tip-top shape and ready to take on the world.<br /><br />As I said, not a whole lot going on around here, just wanted to said a few words and see how everyone is doing. I hope everyone is fine and we miss you guys!Larry and Stephhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09827391730842391494noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4286128789870364453.post-50860725602836681362008-01-09T19:16:00.000-08:002008-01-09T19:43:18.133-08:00Time Marches On...<span style="color:#993399;">Doesn't it seem like things should stop when something life altering happens? Maybe that's completely egocentric, but I'd like to believe that when you are on the down swing of the roller coaster everything should stop until you can catch your breath. Unfortunately, that isn't how God designed things. </span><br /><span style="color:#993399;"></span><br /><span style="color:#993399;">I believe it's a life lesson to feel such grief or pain, the emptiness of loss...no matter what kind it might be... </span><br /><span style="color:#993399;"></span><br /><span style="color:#993399;">Where am I going with this? Well...we lost our precious baby a few months ago, something that is still incredibly hard to say...to admit. It's almost shameful in some ways...like a personal failure. Did I do anything wrong? Not according to doctors or nurses or even family. But in your mind, you will always blame yourself...at least I will. You will always wonder what you could have done differently or what your baby may have been like. I had never known that grief could cause such physical pain. I've lost very important people in my life....but nothing could have ever prepared me to hear the doctor say that my baby's heart had stopped beating. At that moment, I believe time should have stopped....everything should have paused until we could breathe again. Nothing can prepare you for that moment...it's the blind drop in the ride that you can't see while standing in line, and nothing can take the hurt away. </span><br /><span style="color:#993399;"></span><br /><span style="color:#993399;">It's ironic that when you hear the awful news you feel so alienated, like you are the only one who has ever experienced this pain....and yet I had never felt more protected or loved by my husband, my family, my doctors, and God. A good friend of my mom's and actually her boss (the pastor) told my mom to pass along these words "No matter what is happening, look in the faces of the doctors and nurses caring for you and know that God is working through them." Lying in the various beds and on tables, I remembered that and looked, really looked, at my care team...not as people but as workers blessed by God...workers given a gift to care for me physically when I needed it most. Funny how your perspective can change so quickly. Those words were what I needed to remind me that God hadn't done this to me...but that He had a plan and was allowing me to go through this to become stronger. It also reminded me that Larry and I weren't riding through this valley alone...the great Physician was working the controls all along. </span><br /><span style="color:#993399;"></span><br /><span style="color:#993399;">Something else I learned is that when parents say it's hard to let go of their children, they aren't kidding around. I know I never got to name my baby, to know if it would be a boy or girl, I never was allowed to hold Peanut, and yet in that short time I was a mommy. How quickly we become attached to those little blessings. I say blessings because no matter how often you question God's reasoning, He still blessed us with the joy of a baby. We were able to conceive and feel that overwhelming joy, and while it was taken from us too quickly...it's a blessing some never know or struggle for years to feel. </span><br /><span style="color:#993399;"></span><br /><span style="color:#993399;">I still have lots of days filled with tears, lots of moments with gut wrenching pain....you know....the days when you see newborns everywhere, or pegnant women waddling, days that should have been a milestone in the pregnancy, times where you see baby things, or the day you put away your maternity clothes....and while life didn't pause for us, we're starting to breathe again...you know...that moment when you have reached the bottom of the hill and the wind stops long enough for you not feel totally suffocated. </span><br /><span style="color:#993399;"></span><br /><span style="color:#993399;">I have grown closer to my husband than I ever imagined. He is such an incredible support system and literally held my hand the entire time. He even made me a little "plaque" of sorts. He used dried rose petals that he gave me the day I got home from the hospital and the ultrasound picture we had of Peanut along with a beautiful poem. It now hangs on our wall in a place of honor and love for the little one that we long to meet one day. I rest assured that God and Aunt Kay are taking care of Peanut until I can get there. I think she'd love that....and it helps ease a little of the hurt. </span><br /><span style="color:#993399;"></span><br /><span style="color:#993399;">When things get rough and you hit the bottom, the ride doesn't stop for you to breathe....you learn to hold your breath until the worst is over....and at the end of the track you just have to look back and say "it was worth every minute"...because the moments you bottomed out made the hills and twists so much more exciting. </span><br /><span style="color:#993399;"></span><br /><span style="color:#993399;">We are surviving and are better for it. I'm glad the ride didn't stop...I believe the best is yet to come.</span>Larry and Stephhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09827391730842391494noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4286128789870364453.post-14296171237282248642007-11-08T05:01:00.000-08:002007-11-08T05:10:37.971-08:0010 weeks<span style="font-family:courier new;color:#009900;">Well Peanut's now 10 weeks along. Can you believe it, 2 1/2 months? Where does the time go? Now it's the waiting game, I think I am going to go nuts waiting around. F doesn't go back to the doctor until after Thanksgiving. She is statring to feel a little better, although a dry heaving spell is not that uncommon. Poor F cannot have anything with dairy in it, and yes that includes ice cream :-( </span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;color:#009900;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;color:#009900;">But other than that F really likes her new job, besides the part where she cannot be with me all day. Hey, every job has its ups and downs...right? I try to take my lunch the same time as F, just to see each other for a minute or two, but only if I am in the area.</span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;color:#009900;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;color:#009900;">Thats all that is going on right now..nothing too exciting. I hope everyone is good and we'll keep you posted...</span>Larry and Stephhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09827391730842391494noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4286128789870364453.post-57900864880504800932007-10-23T16:58:00.000-07:002007-10-23T17:12:24.310-07:00It's Tuesday...<span style="font-size:100%;color:#993399;">Hey there...it's me...the other half of the blog. Wait...am I still the other half or do I now count as the other 2/3? There's something to let your mind ponder...ok stop...the smoke coming from your brain is making it hard to read the screen anymore. ;-)</span><br /><span style="font-size:100%;color:#993399;"></span><br /><span style="font-size:100%;color:#993399;">So, today was a pretty busy day. I actually had to get up and be a productive human being. I started my new job working as the accounts payable/accounts receivable assistant. It was slightly overwhelming and very busy. I'm not only learning my job but cross-training to learn everyone else's job too. I like that people can cover for me if I have to miss work...but this learning their job thing...that's for the birds LOL!!! Wouldn't it be a better policy just to tell them that I, the Princess, am the only one that will be allowed to miss work from this point on? hehehehe...I like this idea. Maybe I'll wait a day or two and make a suggestion LOL!! </span><br /><span style="font-size:100%;color:#993399;"></span><br /><span style="font-size:100%;color:#993399;">Being that I had to work today, L had to work alone (sans his secretary). I don't know if he'll openly profess his undying love for me and his need to have me firmly planted in that seat next to him (or as he calls it, his "desk")...but I'll be the first to admit that I had a rough day today. I really missed him. It's hard to go from seeing each other 24/7 for 5 months to only seeing him for maybe 2 hours or so. I know we were really blessed in a way to have had that time together, especially with a baby on the way...but in some ways it made going back to work really hard. Then again....maybe I'm just super hormonal at the moment. I had a little meltdown on the way home because the house would be empty, so I soothed myself with a thing of oreos that I had been craving for a few days (no, I didn't eat the whole damn bag....but I could have). Isn't it funny how I went from independent and content to be alone to "independent" and hating the silence of an empty house because I miss that crazy boy? Ha! Who would have ever thunk it? Oh, I'm sure I'll learn to love the silence once the crying peanut arrives...but for now it's going to take some adjusting. </span><br /><span style="font-size:100%;color:#993399;"></span><br /><span style="font-size:100%;color:#993399;">The baby is doing well...Still making me urp though not as regularly. Certain foods still really get me (like anything even close to being related to the dairy section), but I'm adjusting. L is such a trooper. He really is taking care of me. I couldn't ask for a better husband and father for my little peanut. He's amazing! Anything I need (even a cool cloth while I'm bowing to the porcelain god), he just jumps right in and takes control. I rest completely assured in the fact that my baby will never want for anything and will never be without the love and support of a wonderful daddy. He really makes this pregnancy thing a lot of fun!! </span><br /><span style="font-size:100%;color:#993399;"></span><br /><span style="font-size:100%;color:#993399;">Not much else going on here....living one day at a time. What's new with you? How's your day going? Anything exciting? We miss you all (even those who live super close) and send our love to you in truck loads!!! Till next time.... Forty Nerdy!!</span>Larry and Stephhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09827391730842391494noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4286128789870364453.post-33641010143102038832007-10-15T09:57:00.000-07:002007-10-15T10:07:13.205-07:006 Weeks 4 Days<span style="color:#33cc00;">So F and I went to the hospital today to get the first ultrasound done. We found out that she is 6 Weeks and 4 days along, which gives us a due date of<span style="font-size:130%;"> <strong>JUNE 5th</strong></span>. It also verified that there is only one:-<br /><br />The ultrasound was so cool you could see the baby's heart beating (at 103 beats per minute). The test just made the idea of have a child so surreal. I can't speak for F, but this is too awesome...I am sure she agrees!!<br /><br />I just thought I would update you on the progress of ??????? (I bet you would love to know the name that goes in here)<br /><br />I hope everything is good on your end and we will keep you posted!</span>Larry and Stephhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09827391730842391494noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4286128789870364453.post-35936562220740150332007-09-28T07:23:00.000-07:002007-09-28T07:38:33.028-07:001/2 OFF!Ok..so here's the problem. Yesterday F and I went to Drug Mart to get some tylenol, and then it hit me....the baby aisle. Oh boy, they had quite a bit of stuff 50% off :-) I couldn't resist. However, I did limit myslef to only four things, but I could have spent a fortune. <br /><br />In case you haven't figured it out yet, I am way uber excited to be a dad. I constantly have daydreams about the little one. It's unbelievable to me how many people out there have children that they don't really want, how could you not want a child, your child, one of God's little miracles? I am preplexed<br /><br />Enough about me, you guys want to know about F. F is doing fine despite the normal pregnancy quirks. She has the nausea, fatigue, and the cravings that go with it. She has been recently on the banana craving and tuna salad sandwhiches. However stessful the months to come will be, I assure you that your precious F will be in good hands.<br /><br />Just thought you guys would like a little update. I hope all is well in your lives.<br />We love you guys!Larry and Stephhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09827391730842391494noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4286128789870364453.post-18276210447656914662007-09-20T19:13:00.000-07:002007-09-20T19:36:40.232-07:00bundle of joy<span style="color:#ff99ff;">Well it all started when F wasn't feeling very well and this continued on for a few days, and being the genius that I am...I got to thinking...Maybe she's pregnant? Nah! I thought. But her symptoms were so common with pregnancy, so we bought the at-home tests. The results were negative, so that got us worried. So we kept trying these tests and still...negative, negative, negative. How disappointing :-(<br /><br />With her symptoms persisting, we thought that pregnancy is the only answer, if not, something was seriously wrong.<br /><br /></span><span style="color:#33ccff;">So off to Stat-Care for a blood pregnancy test. And after the longest 20-minutes of our lives, Doc says "your pregnant"</span><br /><span style="color:#33ccff;"></span><br /><span style="color:#33ccff;">WOW, that was the 2<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">nd</span> best day of my life. (first being marrying F) I am going to be a dad, holy moses I am going to be a dad. That's a day I have waited for all of my life, and now it's becoming a reality. I couldn't be happier than having F as my wife and baby's mom. I just love her to the moon and back!</span><br /><span style="color:#33ccff;"></span><br /><span style="color:#33ccff;">So we set up a doctors appointment for today and found out the due date for the little one is May 26<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">th</span>!! </span><br /><span style="color:#33ccff;"></span><br /><span style="color:#33ccff;">So through many cravings, sleepless nights and doctors visits, our little bundle of joy will be coming into this world. We consider this to be a true blessing and cannot wait for our new arrival!</span><br /><span style="color:#33ccff;"></span><br /><span style="color:#33ccff;"></span>Larry and Stephhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09827391730842391494noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4286128789870364453.post-83185732549180263902007-09-10T05:06:00.000-07:002007-09-10T05:11:44.862-07:00Hey there, hi there, ho there....<span style="color:#33ccff;">Well, I guess it's been a while. Not much going on here. Larry's been working like a mad man....he's been taking as many hours as possible to make sure everything is taken care of while I'm not working...and so we have money to spend. I've been busy too....busy doing....wait, that's right....I'm still not working. Though I am trying to find something....still sending out resumes. I have gotten some cleaning and laundry done the last few days. Always a plus, because that means no more "Baby, I don't have any clean roos" and now it's just "Baby, I'm down to just the roos I don't like" hehehe. Maybe I'm starting to get this domestic thing a little after all. </span><br /><span style="color:#33ccff;"></span><br /><span style="color:#33ccff;">I just wanted to pop in and say hello...we want to keep you guys up to date, though when I sit here there doesn't seem much to say. So, what's new with you?</span>Larry and Stephhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09827391730842391494noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4286128789870364453.post-23431460112870932702007-08-29T09:19:00.001-07:002007-08-29T09:31:39.989-07:00Funny story....<span style="color:#ff99ff;">Ok...so I tag along with L. sometimes for work since I have no purpose in life at the moment. I love going with him because we get to talk and see different things together and just enjoy our time together. It's also on these days that I often get quite a few good chuckles and sometimes a funny story. With that in mind, kick back, relax, and enjoy a chuckle on L.B. :-)</span><br /><span style="color:#ff99ff;"></span><br /><span style="color:#ff99ff;"></span><br /><em><span style="color:#ff99ff;">It's a beautiful sunhiney day.We're driving down the road to a call at a Speedway. He is about to make a left hand turn in to the driveway. </span></em><br /><span style="color:#ff99ff;"></span><br /><span style="color:#ff99ff;">Me: Babe. Babe. Babe. Watch out for the BIG curb.</span><br /><em><span style="color:#ff99ff;">Bam Bam Bam (we hit the curb full on and shake around like a babydoll in the hands of a running three year old).</span></em><br /><span style="color:#ff99ff;">L.B.: I saw it.</span><br /><span style="color:#ff99ff;">Me: <em>(looking at him with a puzzled expression and raised eyebrow)</em> Then why did you hit it?</span><br /><span style="color:#ff99ff;">L.B.: <em>(looking at me like I've simply lost my mind)</em> Because the sun was shining in my eyes, and I couldn't see. <em>(his tone matched the look on his face...like just try to understand me you simple woman)</em></span><br /><span style="color:#ff99ff;">Me: Um................Ok <em>(didn't he just say that he saw the curb</em>?<em>) </em></span><br /><span style="color:#ff99ff;"></span><br /><span style="color:#ff99ff;">Welcome to a day in the life! LOL....I absolutely love this boy. He's so stinkin cute. He didn't want me to share this story, and when I asked why he said "cause it's too funny"....meaning for once you might giggle at him and not at something stupid I've done or said. Turn about is fair play!!</span><br /><span style="color:#ff99ff;"></span><br /><span style="color:#ff99ff;">Not much else is going on right now. I'm spending ooodles of his hard earned money on stamps and envelopes looking for a job; We're dealing with a retarded dog who enjoys eating peanut butter and jelly sandwiches off the counter while I'm in the shower; We have a cute loveable cat that takes after me and minds her own business in the house and bats at whomever interrupts her quiet time; and that's about all. Not much else. What's new with you?</span><br /><span style="color:#ff99ff;"></span><br /><span style="color:#ff99ff;"></span><br /><span style="color:#ff99ff;">Oh yeah...and to answer the questions about books. I got a few books at the library...all different authors. I just started the Sue Grafton series with "A is for Alibi"....I'll let you know how it goes. I'm looking for new authors though because I've read all of my favorites (except for a Mary Higgins Clark one that hasn't been in the library the last few months). Any suggestions?</span><br /><span style="color:#ff99ff;"></span><br /><span style="color:#ff99ff;">Love you guys!!!</span>Larry and Stephhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09827391730842391494noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4286128789870364453.post-30590098773473517942007-08-27T09:25:00.000-07:002007-08-27T09:36:13.838-07:00Want to hear some exciting news?<span style="font-family:arial;color:#000099;">Yeah Yeah Yeah..wouldn't we all. Absolutely nothing new and exciting here, just the same ole stuff. </span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;color:#000099;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;color:#000099;">S, as for which books I have been reading, I don't read books, that's why there are movies :-P I really have never been one to sit down with a book. Does that make me dumb? F think so <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">LOL</span>. She uses all these big words that I don't know and she tells me I would know them if I read. What a stinker!!</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;color:#000099;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;color:#000099;">Well it's going to be another glorious day, I have to work, and F is going to tag along...Have I ever said how much I love her company, and how much I just love her. She does frustrate me a bunch, but I wouldn't have it any other way.</span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;color:#000099;"></span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;color:#000099;">I hope everything is going great for everyone, and next time i promise i will have something to share, instead of just rambling...</span>Larry and Stephhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09827391730842391494noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4286128789870364453.post-16228545081151632602007-08-23T11:47:00.000-07:002007-08-23T20:39:14.646-07:00Simply Sluggish...<span style="color:#9999ff;">So, we meet again. How's it going in your world? You ask the same of me? Well...let me tell you... It's hot...I don't mean a little warm...I mean freaking HOT!!! As my friend Erika would say,"I'm sweatin' like a prostitute in the Baptist church." Nah, really I'm not sweating cause I haven't left the house. </span><br /><span style="color:#9999ff;"></span><br /><span style="color:#9999ff;">Yesterday L.B. worked and got his hairs cut. He looks soooo cute! Last night I did some laundry, cleaned up the house a smidgey, and we ate dinner. He's off again today, praise God! We've done absolutely zilch today. It's nice when those days come along once in a while. Laying around eating, watching TV, and then remembering that a shower might be a pleasant addition to the day. </span><br /><span style="color:#9999ff;"></span><br /><span style="color:#9999ff;">I think the last time we posted was to tell you that he had a day off...I'm seeing a trend. That day I got my hairs cut, and then we hit the grocery store and Bed Bath and Beyond. I have to tell you that I L-O-V-E that store. I told L.B. that we wouldn't be in there long cause I hate shopping....but it's a time warp in there. We used our wedding money and bought some stuff for the house. I think I could easily spend millions in that store. We got curtains, new canisters for the counter, cookie sheets, and the list could go on and on. If you would happen to need shopping ideas for any up and coming holiday....let me whisper in your ear...come closer "Bed Bath and Beyond."</span><br /><span style="color:#9999ff;"></span><br /><span style="color:#9999ff;">Ok...I'm off to dry my hair and get back to my important tasks for the day. (reading my newest library book, cause I also got a chance to visit our local library the other day). Life is good....we are simply sluggish.</span>Larry and Stephhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09827391730842391494noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4286128789870364453.post-45213434280765324722007-08-21T08:37:00.000-07:002007-08-21T08:46:14.494-07:00Finally...<span style="color:#006600;">So here it is...Finally...A day off! What should we do today? Actually there is a lot to do today.<br /><br />We both need haircuts, I am beginning to look a little wavy, and F's hair is just driving her nuts...SO that #1 on our list<br /><br />Also we are going to go grocery shopping and then to the library to get F some new and exciting books.<br /><br />I am hoping this evening we can just "veg" and watch a movie and cook something good for dinner and just have a nice quiet evening enjoying each others company.<br /><br />See we weren't kidding when we said life in <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">podunk</span> was uneventful! <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">LOL</span><br /><br /></span>Larry and Stephhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09827391730842391494noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4286128789870364453.post-68224012659441340052007-08-19T06:17:00.000-07:002007-08-19T06:37:55.181-07:00One is the loneliest number<span style="color:#ff6600;">I have to tell you about F's version of this song.....it goes like this *clearing my throat to sing it for you* "One is the loneliest number, two is almost as lonely, only with one more person" Now that's an interesting twist! AJ, as for the Stop in the name of love, the hand motions and bootie shaking were there as well while she wailed those lyrics.<br /><br />Aahemm. I would just like to point out that I was not wailing....I was simply trying to show him what the "incredible" talents of AJ and Mom were when singing their rendition. I have the moves....that's no joke. They're handed down from the women in the family....wait, wait...we've all seen Dad dance...maybe my moves come from him. LOL.... Ok...I just needed to clear up that little portion of his post. Oh, and for any of you who want to make fun of my new version of the Number song.... :-P It's actually not new. That's how I originally wrote the lyrics and they were then changed for radio. So HA! Now who's laughing?? ;-)<br /><br />Have a great day everyone...<br /><br />SM, tell D and R that AF and UL say hi and the we love them too!</span>Larry and Stephhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09827391730842391494noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4286128789870364453.post-64861344753387777722007-08-17T09:37:00.000-07:002007-08-17T09:54:52.596-07:00Skidamarinkydinkydink skidamarinkydo<span style="color:#3333ff;">Well... Let me tell you about the singing ablities of F! Yes..she was singing that song this morning in the shower. I think all the windows in the house are cracked and we will have to replace them! F thinks that it was for my listening pleasure, but we all know the truth ;-)<br /><br />Today is going to be yet another glorious day... Work work work! Does life get any better than this??<br /><br />We will post a couple of pics when we get those capabilities. I know everyone cannot wait to see our beautiful faces and our precious little girls. By the way, does anyone want to buy a dog (Gracie)? LOL I have one for sale, and the price is right...FREE...no wait, we will give $10.00 to take her. She's BIG, DUMB, Loves socks, and is mildly retarded, and did I mention DUMB. However, she is pretty cute. Her sister (Moo) on the other hand is cute, smart, and chunky. There seems to be a sibling rivalry going on here!<br /><br />We will write more later, keep us up-to-date on the events going on in your lives..</span>Larry and Stephhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09827391730842391494noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4286128789870364453.post-71554755485143072092007-08-16T09:31:00.000-07:002007-08-16T09:36:22.586-07:00Welcome To Our New Home on The Net<span style="color:#ff0000;">Hi! This is our new spot on the net. From time to time we'll update you on life in Podunk. We figured since cable isn't available way out here, we'd take up blogging... Larry is a comment whore, and he's hoping for lots and lots of comments. ;-) </span><br /><span style="color:#ff0000;"></span><br /><span style="color:#ff0000;">So...let us tell you about our day. It sucks! That's all he feels like saying about that. Nah...it's not too bad yet. We're just taking a few minutes to play online before we, I mean he, goes off to work. </span><br /><span style="color:#ff0000;"></span><br /><span style="color:#ff0000;">Aight...that's enough for the moment. Just enough to say hello...and welcome. Check back later to "Seymoure" about us. ;-)</span>Larry and Stephhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09827391730842391494noreply@blogger.com4
