Oh, Cathy, it’s just a number! Maybe the store should just sew in a fake tag to appease the brides who can’t deal with the truth. .Hello Cathy friends! Thank you for the kind welcome back greetings yesterday!QuietStorm – that sounds like a really fun trip! I love DC, there’s so much to see and do there.lindz.coop – that sounds like a great trip too! There’s so much to see in Europe that it really takes several trips to see everything that you want. And then you still feel like you could do another trip to see more.hendelca – Where in Italy is your daughter going?Sis – No more trips this summer that I know of, esp considering school starts in 2 weeks and I am tired of traveling (believe it or not)! Missed you too, friend!

I’ve been the same size for a couple years now, it’s not ideal but at least it doesn’t go up.
Everyone went on such amazing trips! I feel like I need to go back to DC to see all of the museums.
Four of us went back to school Weds – my oldest daughter, my 2nd son, my honey and myself. Two start tomorrow and we have to get our 3rd son from OH to WI next weekend. Busy, busy, busy!
