Ok, so Bill’s birthday is Friday.  It is Wednesday.  I have no idea what to get him. I don’t think he needs anything like air tools, so I am really stumped here. I do know that we still have some odds and ends stuff to do in the basement, so I don’t know if I should buy some of that and give that to him.  I also need something from the kids to give him.  I wanted to buy a Wii, but he doesn’t want one.  That would have been an easy present.  I am putting the bat signal out here — what should I get him for his birthday?

Well, I finally did it.  There is a conference there in September that I had registered for months and months ago.  However, I was looking for a roommate and hadn’t set up my plane or my hotel yet.  However, now it is done.  I am using the free Southwest ticket I won at BlogWorld last year to fly there (when I called to set up my flight, the lady was so nice and friendly and even spoke English!).  We are going to be staying at the Courtyard Marriott.  I found an awesome deal on their website (better than the deal that the conference was getting for us!).  I wish I would have time to do some fun playing at the theme parks there, but I have to get back to my kids plus the conference has us booked up.  Let me know if you are going to be there too, so we can meet up!

I finally got the pictures off my camera, and I have to show you all this picture. This is what happens when bloggers meet with their kids. This is Elizabeth from Table4Five with all the kids. Of course, there was no way to get everyone looking at the camera at the same time, so I had to settle with one person. With this many little ones running around, I am so glad I don’t have any glass sinks! Amazingly, nothing got broken and everyone had a good time, so we are going to have to plan on doing this again soon!

I had these pictures taken of the kids right before Will’s birthday. I finally got them scanned into the computer and up on my walls!  Aren’t they the cutest things?

I can’t wait for Elizabeth to post up the pictures she took of the kids playing over the weekend.  I know she got some good shots.  Overall, it was a great weekend with the kids.  After Elizabeth left yesterday, Madison cried on and off for about 3 hours that she didn’t want her to leave.  I think that would be a little girl who had a good time, wouldn’t you?  As soon as the pictures go up, I’ll post a couple over here, so you can see what a good time the kids had.
