based on our experience living near the gulf, those are
afternoon 'isolated' and 'scattered' showers, not a storm
front that would move through like in the midwest. They blow
in from the Gulf and are generally small and quick (and
usually welcome and refreshing). also, no invests, tropical
waves, storms, depressions, or hurricanes in the forecast.
that said, more rain means more time for Veronica to lose to
me at ddr.

did anyone else check the weather this week? Did they know we were coming?

DOH

Hope Edgardo's driving and you are napping. See you soon.

I'm heading to Rita's this morning and we head for Pensacola Friday after lunch.

I packed last night and cleaned until midnight. Nico woke up at 2:00am and hasn't been back to bed yet. It's amazing what kids find interesting at that time. "Mommy, I have hair on my arms! Do you have hair on your arms?" "Oh, there are my shoes!" Poor, sleepy Mommy.

Anyway, our trip should hopefully begin tonight. Trying to make it to Charlotte tonight and then Eufaula Friday.

You'll be doing fantastic if any make it.

Merel, Payton and I made the Ohlerama cookies. How many will actually make it to FL?

Shoot, I was cracking before cracking was cool.

Looks like fun, Happy Birthday Daniela!

Hippo Birdee Two Ewe DS!

Happy Birthday Daniela!

Glad Merel arrived safely. It's exciting that Ohlerama III is
officially under way. I had a haircut and pedicure this
morning, the last load of laundry is in the dryer and my
suitcase is half packed. My trip officially starts tomorrow
morning, can't wait!

Oh yes and NTO your package arrived today.

And Happy Birthday Daniela!

We should have posted this yesterday but the very first part Ohlerama travel started and was successfully completed. Merel arrived safe and sound in Houston. She's getting her tour of Houston from two very reliable sources: Lauren and Payton! Can't wait to see what she learns from them.

Happy Birthday Daniela!

Happy Birthday Daniela!!! Hope you have a great day!

This is it my last day at home before Florida. I just have laundry to do and pack my clothes, but a few last minute stops in town. Can't wait to see everyone!

just as our thermostat went down....we're going to have a period of adjustment. Somebody crank the AC before we get there.

I'm so bummed I won't be crashing your shananagans this weekend :( But i hope everyone has a fun fun time in the Sun! It's hot down here.

Houston has bumped up the thermostat again just for you

After surviving a week with Sebastian and his family I'm ready to go to Houston. So watch out Houston, here I come! See you all soon.

are we doing SurvivOrama, Real World Mirar Beach, or Big Brother at the house?

8.15 pace!? wow that rocks.

July 2nd
That's a better time than last year, but I got bumped from 3rd to 5th.

Rita, Oct. 15-16th is homecoming weekend and the Redbird 5k. Mark your calendar.

Anyone else is welcome to join us as well!

Good job on hacking yourself up before you head to the beach, AO!

Congrats AO!

Also, I got 5th place a Women's Masters National's this weekend. You have to be older than 30 to play, and I played awesome and have two pretty great scars to prove it.
