Been a long time...




Who could say it better than Led Zeplin "...been a long time, been a long lonely time..." Well- a lot has transpired in our little family, the most expensive being my incident on the stairs which left me with two plates and eight screws in my left leg. It's cool- I get to live at Hotel Laurie. I am just trying not to think about the next 8 weeks of crutches and wheel chairs. I guess I finally have a valid excuse not to go to the gym.

So, in order to make good use of time at Hotel Laurie, I will be a good blogger while on dissertation breaks (that was for you, babe). Get ready for the Gabrielsen's to get caught up!

First catch up- Kate and Jaimee visit Nanna and Pappa in Washington.
Top five Washington funnies...

1. Kate learned to say "Shhhh" with her mouth and her finger, because Pappa finally had conference weekend to take a few naps. Every time she walked past his room or saw him she said "Shhhh."

2. Kate wanted to eat breakfast with her sunglasses on... maybe it was because she and Mamma had not had their morning eye opener of Diet Coke???

3. Mom was appalled that I let Kate feed herself (aka mess-ville) "I never let you kids feed yourselves and make such messes." Maybe that is why you never ate meals, Mom. So glad you eat now!

4. Dad didn't get to watch all the westerns he wanted, instead, he made friends with Roger, Anita, Pongo, Perdita, and 99 spotted puppies.

5. Kate got her first pair of breast cancer (pink ribbon) shoes. She LOVES them!

She is a diva! Or maybe she is just dramatic like her mother, Anne of Green Gables.
