Need I say more?

Yes, it's been a while....

So here's a few shots from Aedan's Ireland

The Invite is ready...now for the cake!

Ade's B-Day Invite. She'll be 12 this year! WOW! I can hardly believe it.
I don't know exactly how, but I get to make this cake next weekend. Why did I ever start the tradition of making my kids any shape cake they wanted? It has been fun over the years, though. I'll have to dig up some of the better ones for posting...soon! Probably after the party!

RS 3rd Annual VD Auction

Auction time came and went! Whew! Glad it's over and we made a good chunk of change for the school.
These are 3 of the students awaiting their turn to dive into the chocolate fountain! I hope they can swim!

Yep! Video, too!

With all of the crazy stuff that has gone on in my life the last 6 months (AND more!), I have to say that I have been fortunate, too...
Just had to post the video! Great show! Really.

And the winner is....

me.

I won two tickets to see Marshall Crenshaw at the Boothbay Harbor Opera House last Thursday! Sweet! It was!
I took my 16 year old son, or I should say he took me (he drove the hour and a half in a bit of a snowstorm - "Good practice", he kept telling me).
We got to Boothbay and saw a great concert! There were maybe 60 people there, total, and got to sit very near the stage. What a good time.
This was my son's first concert, and when everyone stood up to clap for an encore, he looked at me like everyone was crazy, just standing there clapping in the dark. Had to fill him in on the protocol. There was an encore and we had a great time!
When we walked outside it had turned into a full-fledged, blinding snowstorm and my son insisted he drive home (the hour and a half!).
I haven't been so scared in such a long time! BUT... he made it, and he did a good job!
He has his driving portion of the driver's exam on the 8th of February. I say he's READY!

Polar Plunge 2010

On New Year's Day every year all up and down the Atlantic coast in Maine, several crazy people decide to take a dip in the ocean. Some do it for charity. Others are just certifiable! This year my friend Seth took the plunge. I'm not sure which he is - charitable, or just whacko....I think the latter fits all of them!
Seth told me that another one of the swimmers was giving Seth trouble for wearing a "sweater" during the plunge! hahahaha!
