I have just spent

One day in a Honda Accord with 3 Cropper boys, 1 broken DVD player (a la Blaine), fruit snacks and goldfish, new tires, a sore back, and a hot husband wearing my diva sunglasses because he forgot his.

One day recovering from said trip, oh, plus eating at Chik-Fil-A (which is totally the best fast food establishment ever created--on multiple levels) and picking out some hot maternity jeans for my sister, Liz (who is pregnant with number 5 (pregnancy number 10) and, if you haven't heard, it's another boy, and he is doing great. Prayers really are answered.) (That was a confusing lot of parentheticals.) (Seriously.)

One day at Rehab with Grandma Tillie (cue Amy Winehouse or whatever her name is), a cooing Rog, a restless Blaine (at least the adjustable bed was entertaining for a while), Tay, Sara, and Aunt Sherri. And let me tell you, Gram Til SMOKED me in our Wii bowling game. She doesn't mess around.

Happy Weekend!

I was so thrilled to see this post. I already miss. Felt bad I didn't say goodbye. Got to uptight with my own life to see how I could have helped you. Yep, lame-o sister-in-law. Have a peach of a time in Utah. Don't get too comfortable. Ethan asked for Blaine today. I need a surge of hormones fix from the Rog. Love you loads. Hope all is well for the next month. Thought about you during your drive out.....the agony....the Blaine...:)

Oh wow, the DVD player broke, that has disaster written ALL over it. And did you end up buying new tires after all that??? Glad you are there safe, we miss you already!

And just so you know we live right in between the Salina and the Marysvale on your map there...not too far away... :)

I wonder if it counts as excercise when just reading posts make you tired!

Do you have ANY idea how clever and funny you are?! "Cue Amy Winehouse or whatever her name is." I LOVE the way you write. It is SO honest and undeniably "Anne". I adore you :)
Ps...SO jealous that you go to hang with some of my favorites: Tay, Sar, G'ma Til, YOU, and your darling boys to name a few :)

How long are you here? I was so glad to see you today, and so sorry that my children do not do well with church at 11am. If you have a chance let's play, finger paint, decorate cookies, etc. I am always ready for a good play date

Glad you made it safe! When do you want to get together and print Rog's announcements? And, when can we just hang out?

Chick Fil-A must be a religion down here in Texas. Their drive thru is always full. Glad you survived the trip.
