These are the days

He walks into the house after work. It's the first time that Jorey is in on the game of hide and seek. While they are hiding out in the "tunno" (Dora tent with a tunnel on it), Dad starts searching for them. He's doing the typical, "Where could they be" commentary, while walking throught the obvious non-hiding places. Finally, he says, "Are they over here?"

We hear, "no"

"Are they on the couch?"

"no"

...we're dying by now with laughter because it's the cutest little thing.


"Where could they be?"

"Tunno"

That's how every game of hide-and-seek goes with the goyles, lately. It's so funny that she knows she's hiding, but will answer him when he's calling for her.

I just spent 3 days in Indianapolis, visiting with our employees down there and I missed my family terribly. I sometimes wonder if this new venture in my life is really worth the cost to my personal life. I hope I've made the right choice and that it will slow down enough to be with them all I want to. Gone are the days of my 3 days in the office and 2 at home to relax and play. I mourn the loss of those days on a very regular basis.

Macy is way too smart and sassy for her own good. She continues to make me laugh every day. She's totally destined to be in sales. If I weren't the same type of person, I'd certainly give her everything she ever asked for because she's just that convincing. She has twin babies named Jon and Mitz - Jon has been "sleeping over" at Carter's place since we left him there a while ago, but he's nestled in a bed in his room for safe keeping. Now, Annie is the chubby, life sized baby that she first had named "Bandy". Bandy? What kind of name is Bandy? I finally talked her out of that and she chose the more sensible "Annie". She comes with us on a regular basis. her carseat needs to come to the stores, etc. One day, she had to ride to daycare with us. A couple of my co-workers saw her in there and had slight mini heart attacks at the sight of a baby until they realized that it was just little ole' Annie.

I have promised myself that I need to prioritize with my life and try to be as effective at work as I can be in the hours outside of that arena. I've booked a few trips. Ken, his brother, sister, and a few other friends and my sister Kenz are heading up to Lutsen next weekend for a little ski trip. Then, in June, we'll travel to Florida for a Lawmen tournament. Then, in October, we're off to Palm Springs for the tournament out there. That should help balance the whole relaxation thing. Now, I just need to spend more time with the kiddos. I'm totally in withdrawal of our relaxing nights at home. I'm also severely sleep deprived and those of you that know me know that it's not good for ANYONE to be around me in these troubled times.

So, here's to my new year's resolution...it's just a little late.

You'll likely be hearing from the Fry family more often. :)

We recently had some great fun with Strawberry Shortcake Tattoos...they are bad a$$es. I know...
