I have the coolest clients… if you are ever looking for a Realtor here in Austin, look up Anne Haikola. I’ve been working with her and her husband, Bruce (a contractor) for a while now. They are both fantastic. They invited us to a holiday party (see my previous blog entries) and she sent me more pictures… the horse carriage ride was so much fun!
Tom’s mom and grandmother came over yesterday to give the kids their gifts before we leave (we are traveling to see my mother this year for the holiday). The kids got lotsa loot!
Dy came over last week with J and the kids played while all 3 of us got some work done… this is the price we paid (I swear, the pictures do not even begin to do justice to the mess)! BUT they had a great time, we got some actual work done. It’s funny. We have these “work dates” from time to time and they are always a blast – and productive!
In other news, it appears I can give up my hopes for Jamie being a rich CEO of a Fortune 500 company…
Whew! What a week. Last weekend was just one thing after the other. I went out with friends to see a band downtown (wonderful place, good music, no half-dressed 20 year olds, it was great!), then Tom and I went to a fundraiser dinner, then we had a family holiday party with one of my clients… tonight I had one of my book club groups over… I so totally need a vacation!
Pics from last weekend:
And I have to show this off… I have the coolest husband in the world. One of my book clubs (is it any surprise that I’m in more than one?) read Devil In The Details. I’m completely drawn to the cover of this book with it’s perfect little OCD rows:
So for the meeting, he made special plates! Check it out:

Whew…
Yesterday, you will see I posted a picture of Cassie in a light long-sleeved shirt, swinging away in the sunshine.
Today? Well, see for yourself…
I am such a wuss. It’s freaking COLD out there. It’s like 30 degrees and the wind is all blowing… dang, I miss Hawaii.
Should I be worried that my kid is now drawing pictures on post-it notes because I see those all the time?
Okay, so we have mom and dad. Fine. We have Cassie and it looks like she’s picking a flower. Okay, good. So what does Jamie have in his hand and why is he throwing it? You know he’s throwing it at Cassie… stay tuned… I’m sure the next Post-It art will be Cassie in tears because Jamie hit her with whatever that spiky thing is he has in his hand.
Moblog from the uh… Kitchen. Jamie told me to. Yes my 6 year old is telling me what to do.
