Tuesday, August 12, 2008






Today Lane, Emma, Em's buddy Kennedy and I met Grandmama and Laura at G.G.'s apartment for some cupcakes and bingo. Emma and Kennedy raised $33 at a lemonade stand and spent some on cupcakes for the assisted living gang and will donate the rest to a program that helps buy cows for needy families. While we were there, the girls set out bingo prizes, called numbers, and passed out cupcakes. Not to be outdone, Aunt Laura unveiled her newest oil painting (of G.G.) and Lane entertained the crowd with his piano playing prowess. Actually, we banned him from the room because he kept yelling Bingo! and it confused the elderly. In other news, Oscar (the naughtiest weiner dog ever!!!) stole some chicken off of a plate on the coffee table -we're not supposed to be eating in there anyway. Later, I went to clear the dinner table and the new stick of butter that I had unwrapped and put on the butter dish was GONE. Ok, he left the dish and ate an entire (minus about a teaspoon) STICK OF BUTTER. I'm envisioning a giant glycerin suppository moving thru his little body and onto my floor!! He's locked up for a while. Also, Lane had his 5 yr check up on Monday and that boy can run. As soon as he heard the words finger prick, he ran like the wind. I followed. Through the lab lobby he ran, down two hallways, into a waiting room and hid behind a halfwall. You may say surely no one noticed, but alas, he was screaming like a banshee the entire time. My broken toe may never heal. Also, I'm adding pics of Em before and after her new haircut. Is this enough for you Julie?
