Since I doubt that Chad and Erica are going to want to spend much time with us after their wedding, I propose that we have a family Christmas party the night of the 12th or 13th. We could have our present exchange, do a white elephant, maybe a pinata, the Nativity, eat a lot of unhealthy foods, and have a fantastic time together before the little love birds fly the coop. Opinions?

Whoa, are you going to be able to come early??? Cambrie & Steve won't, last I heard.

I frown on doing something the night immediately before my wedding. I think there will be some last minute things that need to be done, and I'll want to get to bed early that night. The next day is kind of a big day for me.

I like Snickers. It really satisfies.

All snickering aside, [ahem..regaining my composure] I don't think the day before the wedding is a great day to do a formal family party. Maybe we could do it the night of the wedding...Chad and Erica could join us if they wanted. [slap! Stop that Kim]

Isn't it a Groneman tradition to have a wedding night be a game night or some other kind of party? And the one getting married is invited as th e guest of honor?

Why is this tradition changing when I get married? Don't you want me as the guest of honor?

I'm offended now. I don't think I'll come.

It was a casual invite. Traditionally it's been the bride / groom invited as the guest of honor. I'm offended and won't come.

Oh, well, that invite, by tradition, never comes until the day of the wedding.

I'm no longer "un-officially engaged". That's right. Your teasing and blunt hinting is old news. You all know the big news. No definite date yet, but it's looking like beginning to mid-July. *sigh* Long time. It actually works out great to do it then for when Katie's parents come home and Brigham's school stuff. I told Christa I'd put up pictures on here, but I realized I don't actually have many pictures. Mom and Dad have a few. These are a couple of pictures Pictures taken with my phone today. Better pictures coming, I'm sure.

Kiera still loves her 2 blankies. She also loves dressing up and especially loves "pretty yadie shoes" (dress up shoes). We took Kiera hiking in the foothills behind our house last week for a study break for Steve. She liked it. I think she is going to LOVE hiking in the woods someday.She was 100% potty trained before albaturkey and is now 100% un-potty trained again. I'm starting my last set of clinicals this week so I'm not going to start up potty training agin. Looks like we'll just have to continue spending $100 a month on diapers for a while. Lydia has been our little spit-fire lately. She is seeking revenge in grandma's behalf on her mommy. She loves unloading everything and getting into everything. Steve thinks she is just as opinionated as I am and thinks we are in for a difficult daughter. We'll see. I introduced the hose to her this week which she loved. I just finished our annual "NOW" (Nelson Organization for Women) convention. It is...
