Grinch-y Halloween

We're being real Grinches about Halloween this year. Don's been not feeling great (he's better now), his work has been crazy-making the last couple of weeks, and well..... we decided to pass on Halloween. So - the house will be dark, we bought no candy (my diet says *thank you!*) the cat will be under the bed (the doorbell or the sound of feet on the front walkway send her there) and we will be out. As in, we're going to a little hole-in-the-wall Mexican/surfer restaurant, Taco Surf, where a friend is playing/singing tonite. By the time we get back from fish tacos and music, the little hobgoblins should all be home counting their treats. Hope you all have a spooky good time tonite.

P.S. Were I to choose a costume, I'd go as Sarah Palin - I've got the hair, the glasses..... and I can mimic that screech! (oops, no red leather jacket ....)

Photos!







OK, it took me a couple of days, but here are a few photos from our Sears sitting last Wednesday (Halloween-themed!). If you would like to see all of them, I post tons of pics on my myspace page at myspace.com/jsprunk. Have a look! :)

Hey, Buonos!

I missed our family page too, Don. Thanks for setting up something that gets us talking again! As Mom already mentioned, things have changed for us a ton with the arrival of Logan 9/16. We are slowly getting the hang of this parenting thing!

He turns 6 weeks old tomorrow and he's a smartie already! He's turned over twice, smiling like crazy, making tons of eye contact, and is now really starting to pay attention to the world around him and getting interested in his toys. He eats sooo much and is outgrowing clothes left and right.

It's pretty awesome having Mom so close...she gets to see the boy whenever she wants and I get a break on the weekends when Jon has to work! Luckily, his parents live right here in Harrisburg too and Logan's their first grandchild, so the odds of this kid getting pretty spoiled are extremely high! I just think it's neat he has so much family around him. Lots of us remember long trips to see grandparents or other relatives, so it's really nice!

I will add a couple of pics myself when I get home tonight. We had some Halloween shots taken last Wednesday and they came out super-cute! :)

Love,
Jenny

Hey!

Hey Everybody!!


This is so cool. I'm glad you thought about it Don. Sure it took the techie one of us.

I'm so glad to hear you and Sandy are doing well and enjoying life.

Well, things have changed for me big time.

I recently started a position as Administrator for a global organization of cpas and auditors based out of Hershey PA. Yep, I moved again.

It's a brand new organization, so I get to start from scratch. There's alot of travel involved and I'll be checking alot of things off my list of things to do. In fact, I'm going to be in San Francisco next week for a conference. I just wish there was a way I could see you guys. But, unfortunately, I just don't have the time. I'll suggest we do LA for a meeting and then make the time to see everyone. Maybe go in a day sooner or something.

Jenny had a baby!!!!! I posted a picture of him. His name is Logan Alexander. The best part is that I get to see him whenever I want. Now that I live closer to Jenny and Jon.

John's gonna be 9 in a couple of weeks. And because of being out of town, I couldn't go to Atlanta this weekend and take him to the race for his birthday. This is the first year I've missed and I feel guilty as hell about it. I miss him alot. Miss Cheri and Aaron too. I just wish both my grandsons were near me.

Oh well, gotta go to Jenny's. Talk to you all soon.

Love always,


Lorraine

Franny! Lorraine!

Hey Cousins - Thanks for signing up on Day 1. It's been way too long. What have you guys been up to? Sandy and I had quite a summer. I travelled to Israel and Costa Rica on business, and Sandy and I spent 10 days in France in September. We had a blast. Pictures over at http://www.bluepaperflowers.blogspot.com.

Hope all is well.

Don

donk-donk-donk... Is this thing on?

Since what I miss most about the family web site is the discussion forum, let's see if using Blogger will do the trick. Everyone will have to have a blogger username/password to be able to post.
