Last year at the gym compared with this year!

I miss that chubby little girl. I can hear her squealing when she runs right now. We love the older L too though! She is so funny and sweet and full of energy!!! All the instructors say how strong she is but we already knew that ;)

Lucy is so happy the sun has been shining! :)

Girlie girls

Look at these two -

some times it is too much fun raising these two little girls

surgery = not as fun as it sounds

having gone thru none of these before, surgery stinks. it has been 49 hours since i last ate, and i do not see eating anywhere in the immediate future. i cannot open my mouth wide enough to get a spoon in anyway. feel like i have a mouth full of cotton balls, like shattered glass cotton balls.

but i do love the optimism of my surgeon. 'oh, you talk all day for a living? yeah, take a couple days for yourself, but you'll be fine.' seriously, if your throat is bugging you a little, maybe it would be better to take those useless tonsils out..... dont do it.

i guess my analysis is a little premature, but if i cannot talk, eat, or swallow anything but cold water soon, i may go raving mad. just a heads up. oh, and if i dont lose a bunch of weight after this, dont even get in my way.

bright side, tonya is a champ - she is staying home with me this week to make sure i am alright. she is the best.

May Vacation!

Pics of Lucy while John was mowing the lawn,




So vacation is definitely over! It is FReezing and cloudy here today, left the 80's yesterday :( We went just us this time on vacation and had a Great Time! Little sunburn but so much fun.

Scooter rental in Key West, Atlantis Resort with Dolphin Swim in Bahamas and John had fun exploring the abundant marine life in Coco Kay. Miami was fun too! Hot but fun. We missed Lucy a ton. She was so happy to see us at the airport as you can see by her reaction above.

Already thinking about the next get away. We just need to get through the next 'adventure'. John is having a tonsillectomy on Monday - ugggh! He will be hurting for a while. Poor guy.

At least we have some happy place memories to think about. Getting pics developed of the beautiful water and tourist spots we went too.
