I figured I’d better post today since next week I’m having some surgery and will be drugged up and not allowed to operate the internet, let alone machinery.

We got back from the Asheboro Zoo on Sunday and I’m posting some pictures. We had a blast seeing Susan and Eddie and their two children. Too bad we all don’t live closer to each other . . . We also really enjoyed seeing Aunt Dana and Uncle Richard. Arden especially misses them since for once in her life, people paid more attention to her than Lily (Lily was a little out of it after going to the emergency room Friday night with a fever over 105, and only wanted her mommy and daddy). Arden is probably wishing we would have left her down there!

Anyway, things have been busy between trying to buy another company (the deal fell through Monday night), determining whether or not to go full time at work, dealing with sick children, and worrying about my impending surgery and how I’m going to get through 4 weeks without lifting anything heavier than a milk jug (uh, Arden weighs more than a milk jug . . . ).

As the saying goes, a picture is worth a 1000 words, so that’s about all I can do at the moment.

The first picture is of Lily at the zoo - the second is of Arden and her new habit - sucking on chins!!! She particularly liked Aunt Dana’s. It must have been yummy.
