A BIT OF RANDOMNESS...

We recently returned from a fun weekend trip to Mesa and can you believe I didn't take a single picture. PATHETIC!! We went to visit our good friends Tricia and Butch who recently moved there from Kansas City. They were our parents away from home when we lived there and are the most kind hearted, giving people that I know. Every time we would leave their home in KC we would have enough food for a week. My parents and my brother's family were also in Mesa for a dental convention so we thought it would be a great time to drive over and see everyone. We drove over late on Thursday night, and came back late on Sunday. The girls did very well in the car, which I was worried about because we haven't done very many long car rides. The funny thing is though, Halle will not sleep in the car. On the way there it was late and she tossed and turned for a while, but couldn't get comfortable, so she just ended up eating crackers and watching baby einstein the rest of the way. On the way back she fell asleep about 30 minutes from home and it only lasted about 15 minutes! Silly girl! The good thing is that she was really good. She loves to watch movies, so as long as something was on and she was snacking on something, she was good. Man I love that little squirt! It was a quick but fun trip, and it was so fun to see family and friends! Thanks Butch and Tricia....we love you! The girls recently had their 3 year and 1 year well baby check-ups and guess what....both my girls are tall! Brynlee is in the 85% for height and Halle the 75%. The doctor predicts that Brynlee will probably be about 5' 7'' when she is older. It looks like my girls are probably going to pass up their mom! That's all right with me, as long as my boys are tall too....if I get any boys! It will be fun to see how tall they end up. Brynlee did something pretty funny today. As I was walking out to the mailbox the UPS man pulled up to my neighbors house and was going to drop off a package. I informed him that they were out of town and so the package didn't sit by their front door for several days I would hang on to it for them. (Hope that is ok Jeni....I just didn't want it to sit by your front door until Sunday). Anyway, I was out by the mailbox and I could hear Brynlee talking to the UPS man but couldn't hear what she was saying. He left and I got back inside and asked her what she had told him. She said, "I was talkin to the man and I told him that my witch costume was a piece of crap and we had to send it back." I just busted up laughing! She had seen the UPS man deliver her witch costume...which was a total piece of crap.....and I did send it back. She just wanted to inform the deliverer!
