I Don't Have Time To Post But I'm Going To Anyway - Quickly

*  We made it down here in 22 hours straight.  Ugh.  But the kids did really well.  We left at 3:15 am Sunday morning and got here at 2:30 (eastern) Monday morning.

* Since then we've been going full tilt.  Baking cakes, making bulletins, gathering up "stuff" we need, etc.

*  Tonight Matthew and Rhonda get here and maybe Derek's.  We're all going out for supper.

* Last night Rachel was having her trial run with her hairdresser and the lady who's going to do my hair was looking at my hair and asking how I want it.  I had been baking cakes all day and had no time for a shower.  My hair was gross.  They had said that we should come in with clean, dry hair, but not "too clean".  The lady who was looking at my thin, greasy, stringy hair blurted out, "but don't come in with it this dirty!"  We laughed and laughed.  I was embarrassed to be seen in public like that anyway, but then to have a hairdresser looking at your hair...

*  Weddings are a huffin' lot of work!  But fun too.

Wow! Sounds like you had a busy summer. It's great to see pics of your kids. Can't believe how Caleb and Logan have changed since 3 Hills. Congrats on your little girl. It's fun to have a girl. :-) I'm just wondering - could you post the "recipe" for ear infection cure that you use for Hannah? My kids have all had them and antibiotics don't seem to work so well.

Reply to your question on Rachel's blog... My mom is Mary Alice, Clara's daughter (Clara was a sister to your grandma Susan). I recall hearing of "Merv & Barb" when I was younger - and seeing photos of you and your siblings. (My mom also works at Der Dutchman in Plain City with Iris' mom - another little connection.) I enjoy reading about your family and life up north.

Hi Jenni, I've been checking and checking for some new news and pics. I am figuring you are very busy like the rest of us. I still have the circle letter but thought I'd wait to send it until after baby since we all got together in July. Baby day will be soon here. due date a week from tomorrow. We are all anxious to meet little Mr. or Miss baby. Eunice

Yes, we're still reading! I got a notice that you'd updated and asked if anyone was here, but when I came to your blog, it wasn't there?? Odd. But YES, do not lose heart!! We, the faithful remnant, are still out here just waiting to hear from the fine Graber household. Love ya! : )
