We were going to take photos at the pool tonight, but Heather and I and our dhs never stopped talking -- we had such a great time. We will be so sad when they leave and the cottage is empty. The kids are having a fantastic time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems surreal, but at the same time, it is two families enjoying each other's company and having a great time.:) I am saying this is cyber unreal. We need photos, pronto, or we will either throw a tantrum or assume this is all too cool for school. :D OK - I am hoping that tonight heather will post the photo her dh took of her and I -- tomorrow we will take photos of the kids. I promise. No tantrums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heather in Neverland Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 OK, OK.... here is the pic we took tonight. Even though I look as exhausted as I felt after walking all over DC, I am still posting it because it is a great pic of Mariann! We had a lot of fun at the pool even though we just gabbed the whole time and never swam. :tongue_smilie: We Hive ladies sure can TALK!

Heather in Neverland Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 And this is a pic of the front of her guest cottage. I'll let Mariann post pics of the beautiful inside after we leave and drag all our stuff out with us. :D And a pic of my princess and one of her brothers on the porch of the cottage. I told you it was cute! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny_Weatherwax Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Nice pic, ladies. The daywon't be complete without a ride in the hummer, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MariannNOVA Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Nice pic, ladies. The daywon't be complete without a ride in the hummer, though. D.A. The hummer has been gone for awhile now. Pls sit down for this.....I am driving a mini van now. yes, that's right. When the hummer lease was up, and we knew they would no longer be made, the only sensible thing was to turn it back in and get something......gulp....practical. I really like the minivan. Not as much as the hummer -- I LOVED that hummer. But the minivan seats 7 and the hummer didn't. I am so sorry to have to tell you this. The good news, not that it really matters, is that dh's car was totalled last week and he is going to get a really nice Mercedes. It's not a hummer, though, and that's sad. I get really nostalgic when I see an H2 on the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pls sit down for this.....I am driving a mini van now. :lol::lol::lol::lol: Can't picture that. (in denial) Now the Eagles' song "There's a hole in the world tonight" is playing in my head. This is the song I go to when the world just isn't quite right. Just to make you feel better - I am looking at minivans, too. The VW convertible just wasn't made to accomodate infant/toddler car seats. If I take the baby no one else can ride with me. Plus I need something that has a hitch for the bike carrier and the kayaks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus I need something that has a hitch for the bike carrier and the kayaks. I know -- i still have difficulty with it -- my family in nj is stunned.:001_huh: But with two grand daughters and another on the way, it really makes life easier. A friend of mine at CC who has kids in their mid 20s told me that we all need to be driving mini vans alot longer than we think we are going to drive them -- i fear she is correct. Sounds like we are in the same boat. You know, maybe now you should plan that trip to DC..........;) You would have a place to stay. ;) Awesome pics! :D thank you dear adopted daughter! Truthfully, I was horrified at how i look -- why do we always look so different in photos than we do in the mirror?:confused: I look much fatter than I think I am and my hair is orange. :confused::w00t: This is good though, me seeing me in this photo -- it has totally motivated me to reach my medifast goal (30 lbs by 8/12, and 30 more by 1have lost 10/24). I have lost 14 lbs and i am beginning week 4 today. I got up this morning and went walking/running. i am determined to have a photo where i look more the way i think i should look up there in about 5 weeks. Must run - i am a sweaty mess and I have to get cleaned up to go to the pool - we have invited friends there for the day. Gosh, I hope I look better than i do in that photo!

Cinder Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Thanks for the pics. Looks like you two are having so much fun. And the kids are cuties! Mariann, I feel your pain on the minivan. After dd was born we traded in our dying Explorer for a Sienna. Dh kept telling me we needed a minivan. I did not want to be a minivan mom. But he was right--it's so practical. *sigh* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
