Luvs, the shrimp is for me and the groom, the sea scallops are for her and DH! LOL

Thank you Luvs!
I just dug this one up of all three of my girls. This was taken on the youngest ones(in the middle) 21st Birthday at Margaritas Restaurants. Lets just say DH & I picked them all up and brought them home! LOL

All pretty!! 3 daughters=3 weddings=ouch!

beautiful girls!!!... I had a cool mom & dad with that as well... could always call in the middle of the night

Yup, we told them do not drive....don't care where you are...i'll come get you.

Beautiful Family!

it was always nice to know I could do that.. good job Mom!!!

Awe, thank you all very much!!

Beautiful women. Great mom. Nice centerpieces, menu looks yummy, I'll take an invite just to see Victor in that dress.

Yeah! I want to see Victor in a dress too!

You're right Marilyn, it was Wave Hill. Victor, you have to come. It's gorgeous. Don't worry, Marilyn, I don't want to see it in the biting cold either, although this time of year, you don't much visit the gardens. There's the conservatory and usually some indoor activities.

Gorgeous kids, Celeste.

I finished the lemon leaf I was drawing for my homework assignment. Here it is.

I also got a temporary part time job working in a fabric store. I get to sew fun things and they pay me! Plus, I get a discount on everything. Today was my first day. Yay!

it came out great Harper... have fun with the new job!!!

So lifelike!
Congrats on the job Harper! I couldnt work in a fabric store. I'd leave my pay check there every week:-)

Not sure but I think jealousy is setting in with the adult dogs. The keeshond has now just looked at me spread her legs, squatted and peed on the floor 3 times in the past 3 days. If its not a jealous dog then its a dog that gets nervous when the young one is running around the house a 100 MPH

Hope this gets straightened out.

Not all women things.

Sherrie needs the dog whisperer

i agree - a guy i used to work with had some huge dog that peed anytime someone new came in the house - they thought there was nothing wrong with the dog - i would not deal with 15 years of that!

Congrats on the job, Harp! Incredible detail on those leaves - looks like they were traced!

yes, congrats harper

now that I know she is ok.. my sister got rushed to the ER last night... chest pains, went flush the whole nine yards.. all the tests came back negative.. but kept her overnight to make sure.. still not sure if the party is on or off yet.. but my sister talked my dad out of going out to ohio to help her... she has been though a lot the past few years .. surgeries for all sorts of things... I feel bad for her

Sorry.

Thoughts and prayers for her, Allison.

thanks Victor... she sure needs it

hope they figure out what happened and she feels better allison

my guess is a panic attack or something.. she is always wigged out and running around... but thank you Bill

then the party should be on

I had a panic attack years ago. They stuck the little sticky pads on me and let me lay there for 2 hours. Dr came in and asked how I feIt and I said - I am breathing heavy and my heart feels like it wants to jump out of my chest on to you. He gave me 2 valium, sent me home and it never happened again.

Scary, Allison! When my brother went to the ER last week, my cousin called & said Don't Panic---of course that's what I did! He's still undergoing tests--part 2 of stress test this morn. Harper---so glad you got a job! Your lemon leaves are great! And we'll meet at Wave Hill. Pixie---your girls are too cute----the wedding sounds fab, great menu. And Sept. is usually beautiful in Maine. Our son was married on May 15th---over 90 that day--thank God they chose a place with AC--but the church was stifling!

Sherrie, I would have times when I couldn't catch my breath---Benadryl helped.

that's great Sherrie and valium is always good!

Robin - was 95 the day we got married. No a/c in the church.

Allison the point I was trying to make is there was nothing wrong. Just a stupid panic attack. 15 years ago it happened and I look back. Now I think something was really bothering me at the time.
