Who's Gonna Turn Down a Handful of Oreos?

Mom, Dad, Haley & Sydney rolled into town around 6:45. We met them at Applebee's for dinner. Why Applebee's? Because they have a Weight Watchers menu, and Haley's on a kick. And you know when Haley's on a kick, the rest of us must participate (and encourage and assist if at all possible). So, Haley made Jon & me play our part tonight by eating ALL of the rest of the Oreo's. Of course, we took one for the team and went for it. We're all about the sacrifice.

No big fights to report about... yet. Coop & Kona have barked until they lost their voices... but Syd seems to be able to hold her position fairly well. She had Cooper trapped upstairs a little earlier. (He had gone up, she followed. He was on the 3rd step from the top, she was on the 7th. If he made a move, she mirrored it. He was really nervous... you can tell when he won't look at her. You go, Syd!)

Gosh... I'm really sleepy again. Can't tell if it's the early-to-bed folks in my guest room or if I just really hadn't caught up on my snoozing after last week's travel-capade. Either way, I'm heading for the rainbow in my dreams right now. Another summer (spring) day has come and gone away. It's time to head home. Coop said to say good night. He's curled up, sponging with my shoulder. He sends all his X's and O's, wishes all of you happy Wednesdays, and can't wait till he can see all of y'all... especially those of you who will let him lick your face. G'night.
