NNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! We downgraded our satellite service a couple weeks ago. And now I have lost my Bravo. Apparently there was a free preview for the month of May on the package that we downgraded to, but there is not Bravo in the actual package! How am I going to watch Top Chef and Project Runway? I am a little upset.

Anyway, back to the stuff that really matters, my sister Jennifer, sis-in-law Debi, and sis-in-law Shannon have recently given me some pictures they have taken. I finally got all of them in the computer and thought I would share. I really like all of these pictures. Thanks to my sisters for all the pictures...I always forget to take the camera to family events or fun things.

We had a nice surprise today. Tim and Shannon came to visit! We were able to hang out all day with them playing with kids, catching up, and watching the dogs play. We had our three dogs, Krypto, Bernie, and Coca-Cola then we had their two dogs Flip-Flop (cocker spaniel), and Juno (Dachsund/something else). It was a lot of fun. We ate dinner then decided to go bowling. Real bowling, not Wii bowling.

We got to the lanes and found out they were full so we had to leave. When we got in the car, Kalyn had her "What is going on you told me we were going bowling I don't want to go home I want to bowl I don't understant what is happening I want to bowl I am going to cry because I am confused" face on. It broke my heart so we went to McDonalds instead and watched the girls play while the grown ups continued to talk.

Sadly, Tim and Shannon couldn't stay the night (Kalyn got the afore mentioned face, only substitute "I want you to spend the night"). We do have plans to go bowling next time we are in J-Town though. Maybe the whole group can go!

Enjoy the pictures!

Keali and Jennifer at Thanksgiving. For all of you soft hearts out there, you need to know that my evil sisters made by beautiful baby girl cry...ON PURPOSE! Just so they could get this shot! But isn't she sooooo cute! Pic from Jennifer

Keali, Heath, Debi, Kalyn, Me, MaMaw, PaPaw at the Toy Museum in Branson, MO. As stated in a previous blog--Don't get sucked in by the thought of a Toy Museum. This place will take your money so you can look at junk...and I mean junk. There are very few actual antique toys. Mostly just stupid stuff. Don't do it! Pic from Debi
