I've got my Saturdays back!

Yay! It's over! Another tax season behind me. This one was the worst yet. The last three days were torture. In fact I was so stressed out, I broke out in hives. Then the guys teased me. Tim asked me if I had just come out a tanning booth. I was red!

But that's done and over with....WOO HOO!!!

So it's Saturday, and I don't know what to do. I haven't had a Saturday off in what? 11 weeks. I forgot what it's like! Noah is as a meeting for work right now and the boys and I are snuggling in bed. This is the life.

Noah and I watched a REALLY good movie last night. I have to say I haven 't cried like I did last night in eight years. We rented MARLEY AND ME. Awesome movie. We laughed. We cried. We related. We changed the name of the movie to LISA AND NOAH'S LIFE. It sorta followed what we've gone through. We gave it two thumbs up.

So the week with my sister and her mother went very smoothly. We did everything Marjorie had wanted to do and then some. The first night they were here we went to Harry's for dinner and shopping at WalMart. After that they made dinner for us every night. The refrigerator is finally empty! They make soooo much food! And so good!

The main purpose for the visit was for the two of us to go see our favorite childhood band perform (again). Since last October we've seen New Kids on the Block three times. We are going once more in July! The show never gets old. This time around they changed their show up a bit. It's always enjoyable.

So I bought a new camera for the occasion. It records video. AMAZING! Best camera I've ever owned. I recorded The Right Stuff for Gabe and Manny. That's their favorite song by New Kids. We sing it all the time.

Our tickets were in the same section as the last two concerts, only a little higher up. We were in row M...there was one whole row down front that wasn't being used, so we ended up in row G! We were so close. Made friends with the girls next to us, and they moved down with us.

This Wednesday I had off for what we call our New Years Day. I was playing the videos I had recorded for Manny. He got the dance bug...I was laughing so hard. I recorded him dancing to the New Kids video. I named him the 6th New Kid on the Block! Now there is Donnie, Jordan, Jon, Joey, Danny and Manny! Enjoy this video!

He sure does have the moves. I am glad that you survived another tax season. Your busy time is done and hopefully mine is starting. Now onlu if the weather would cooperate.

Hi Lisa!

Thanks for posting this...how did I miss it Saturday, though? I check every couple days just to see if you have posted anything. Congrats on getting the tax season behind you, and I am so sorry about the hives. I hope they cleared up nicely for you!

Please tell me about your new camera. Tina wants to get a new one with video capability and if you like yours, I will tell her about it.

Loved seeing Manny dancing, especially the little hand on the hip action he's got goin' on! I like his hair grown out, too!

Love and hugs,

Kim
