Test 2

While our time spent in the Garden State was just grand, I'm displeased to report that all of the McBrayers got sick. Unbelievable.

Fiona was down first with the bug. She seems to have caught it on our trip down to the shore (possibly at a turnpike rest area or grocery store). She passed it to Holden, who, within a couple of days passed it to Bert. By Wednesday, Melissa came down with the bug as well.

Needless to say, catching the flu on your vacation is not fun. However, we managed to get a week of picture perfect weather (even though we forgot the camera) and were able to enjoy our fun-in-the-sun despite our ailments.

It's good to be back in Hollidaysburg and sleeping in our own beds again.

I know, I know... Melissa is going to kill her husband. =)

Melissa and I enjoyed a great weekend in Lancaster and Doylestown. Congrats to Jayson (Clyde) Walker and his new bride Marjorie. The ceremony was beautiful!

Courtesy of Popeye -- here is a grill that I'm not sure was meant for cookin'...

I hope you have a safe Memorial Day!

Holden is officially done with pre-school. This is a shot of him in the class portrayal of The Three Little Pigs. Holden is Little Pig #2 (hence the shirt).

Nest up: Kindergarten. Oh boy...

The following is a questionairre that Holden filled out at school for 'Mom's Night'... the italicized words are what Holden actually told his teacher to write in the blanks. Enjoy!

My Mom

• My Mom's name is Melissa.
  
• My Mom is 33 years old.
  
• My Mom is 66 inches tall (that would be 5 feet, six inches).
  
• My Mom has brown eyes and black hair.
  
• My Mom's favorite color is purple.
  
• My Mom's favorite sport is basketball.
  
• My Mom's favorite tool is garden tools.
  
• My Mom's favorite song or music is 'flow something'. (a reference to 'Even Flow', by Pearl Jam)
  
• My Mom likes to watch Heroes on tv.
  
• My Mom likes to relax by lay down.
  
• My Mom's favorite place to eat is anyplace that has pizza.
  
• My Mom's favorite food is pizza.
  
• My Mom's favorite activity to do with me is any activity.
  
• My Mom always tells me, 'I love you'.
  
• I love my Mom because she gives me kisses at night.
  

Well, Holden has a much better grasp on his mommy compared to his daddy. Although, I think he mixed us up on the food/restaurant question -- it is I who is the pizza-addict.

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeah.... So it appears that I haven't updated everyone in a loooooong time. Sorry about that. We've been working on another project which I'll be announcing here really soon.

Stay tuned...
