i work with some people that are ben's age and i can't believe it, but they are planning their ten year high school reunion. brody leroy, who was a friend of ben's since kindergarten, told me they want some pictures of ben for a little display. they especially want ones of him in high school or perhaps junior high, and of course, they already have high school yearbook pictures. i thought if any of you have any pictures of him as a teen or later you could put them on your blogs and then i could copy them and put them on my blog for brody to copy. i will look through my physical photos and find some also, but i'm not good at scanning and i think it would be easiest to copy them from the computer. so if any of you have pictures of ben, would you please put them on your posts. i would appreciate it.

other than that, there is not much going on that's new in my life. i work, i knit, i read, i sleep, i go to choir...not very exciting. i should get ambitious and put some pictures of my knitted socks on my post, but i'd rather knit than take pictures. i have learned to knit continental which is very cool and fast. but, i can't purl continental yet which is much harder. i learned by going online and looking at youtube videos of people knitting that way. i feel very accomplished.

i'm looking forward to the washington dc trip in may and need to get busy on shower and wedding gifts, which i will enjoy making. can't think of anything else to say, so i guess i'll end.

Alan and Shelley said...: I have not looked for pictures yet. I have been putting it off because I know it will be hard. I cry every time I think about Ben, and pictures are even harder, but I will look tomorrow. I think Morgan may have some good ones, but she may have already put them on that disk. I wish I had taken pictures of us at Bechler meadows. That was a good time, and the other campouts. All great times with Ben. Tomorrow it is my priority. I do have some pictures of him at the family reunion 2003, but they are with the family and so he is very small in them. And because they were not taken with a digital camera, I can't soom in without losing the look of everyone. But I will post those and you can have those anyway.; March 16, 2009 at 9:32 PM

over the river and through the woods

over the river and through the woods, to grandmother's house we go.
the horse knows the way to carry the sleigh through the white and drifted snow.
over the river and through the woods, oh how the wind doth blow;
it stings the toes and bites the nose as over the ground we go.

over the river and through the woods,to have a day of play.
oh hear the bells ring, ting-a-ling, for it's thanksgiving day.
over the river and through the woods, trot fast, my dapple gray.
spring over the ground like a hunting hound for this is thanksgiving day.

over the river and through the woods and straight through the barnyard gate.
we seem to go extremely slow, it is so hard to wait.
over the river and through the woods, now grandmother's cap i spy.
hoorah for the fun! is the pudding done? hoorah for the pumpkin pie.
