Yikes!: September 2008
http://fortenberries.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
September 29, 2008. Seriously, the Cub Scouts are calling. But I can't help myself - I really need to write a blog. I don't have all of the pictures I need to do this post justice, but here are a few. This past week, I turned.duh-duh-duh.30! Hello my fellow "advanced age" Americans! Though nearly thwarted by a last minute Gal Bladder attack (nice try Merrilee! And a ravaging Hurricane Ike (see pic of neighbor's front yard - after a huge bit of the tree had already been removed),. They hitched their wagon...

http://fortenberries.blogspot.com/2009/06/and-counting.html
June 26, 2009. Survived one major hurricane, enjoyed the snow, enjoyed no snow, lived by the poolside, and wished the a/c would stop breaking. Owned two used ond one new car. Wished I would stop wrecking the car! June 26, 2009 at 3:34 PM. So does Paul ever read your blog, or are you talking to yourself? O) Either way, I hope you guys have a great evening tonight! Im sure Paul will love IT. June 26, 2009 at 9:30 PM. I cant believe its been 10 years! June 27, 2009 at 10:22 AM. June 28, 2009 at 8:55 PM.

Yikes!: July 2008
http://fortenberries.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
July 7, 2008. Okay, so I've had a triple threat weekend and I'm here to rant about it. 1 On Saturday, our little family piled into the car for an evening at Red Robin. Where Paul's debit card was DECLINED - hoping it was the magnetic strip, we called to find out his card had been compromised and therefore Chase Bank security put a hold on use. I'm thankful they were right there to handle it - especially since some goof had already charged over $400 worth of shopping spree in Michigan. July 4, 2008. Linds...

Yikes!: October 2008
http://fortenberries.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
October 29, 2008. Okay, I'm going to brag, this year, we hit halloween costume pay dirt. Our T makes the world's greatest Yoda ever! Bug is Luke Skywalker - we're not even Star Wars fans, but how can you pass up a Yoda like this? Your kids may be cute, but there's no Yoda, like this Yoda. So have fun and "use the force" will ya? Photo courtesy of Tracy! October 20, 2008. Because you're acting like a kid who needs to get permission from his mommy. October 15, 2008. Tell me it isn't amazing. Not to insinua...

Yikes!: January 2009

January 19, 2009. Okay, I know most of you think he is some sort of deranged boss of our family now, but I should have added that he is a VERY helpful clothes folder and he does a good job of it. Learning how to wash his clothes will obviously be in his future, especially since I can't keep up with the demand! Also, for some unknown reason, he has only 1 pair of jeans, that he really, really loves! On another note, he is turning 5 today! January 14, 2009. Some kind of girl. Bug: What are you anyway?

Yikes!: Vacation
http://fortenberries.blogspot.com/2009/08/vacation.html
August 6, 2009. We saw dolphins, Bug got stung by a jellyfish, Paul ended up with a pretty messy sunburn, but it's definitely the kind of trip you could make over and over again and never tire of. Try not to notice the now characteristic smudging on the photos - - not only is our camera a bit outdated, but the lens is actually covered with some kind of goop thanks to amateur photographer T! I love the sunburn hand print- cute! August 6, 2009 at 10:54 AM. That burn is BAD! August 8, 2009 at 12:34 AM.

Yikes!: May 2009
http://fortenberries.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
May 13, 2009. This past weekend, I made a cake for our neighbor's birthday party. She turned four and loves flip flops. It was a pool party, so I found a version of this cake online and recreated it as best I could - but I have found some great secrets to easy cake making. 3 Make a batch of simple syrup (sugar and water) that will keep indefinitely in your fridge and brush your cake with it to lock moisture in. 4 Avoid eating all of the left over cake! Hahaha - impossible for me. May 7, 2009. Lindsay sai...

May 20, 2008. Ps double click the photo of T if you are having trouble imagining that he actually does have hair. May 19, 2008. It's official.there have been some other attempts, but these are the first four in a row! Bug and T chose Sundays to make their move, so we had the camera handy! Tim is just a day over 11 months and we consider this a major milestone considering his start in life! Yay for Tim and hooray for our camera man Bug. May 14, 2008. Have you been "tagged"? 3 If I were a billionaire I wou...

Yikes!: December 2008
http://fortenberries.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
December 29, 2008. Let me start off by saying this was the big gift of Christmas. I was sort of against it, but it was their Dad's idea and it will probably be the most memorable gift for years to come. Advice: if the kids want the powerwheels. Okay, I'm moving into controversial territory with this post, but now that the holiday season is gone, I feel like we can chat about it without any criticism and I'm really just looking for other ideas and feedback. To admit that I was still going along with the ol.
