Update!!!!

It's been a long time since I've blogged--not my usual. You see, it has been INCREDIBLY hard getting DSL hooked up at our house. We had a scheduled appointment with Comcast yesterday, but the man was a no show!!!! Annoying! So here I am...again...at my parents house on the computer, sitting by the pool watching the children swim, while Danny mows my parents lawn.
(Cool, my sister Dolly and Leland and baby Michael just showed up! I tell you what. It is so nice being home!)

Anyway, we have officially been home a month. We are officially unpacked now and we're starting to paint in our house. School starts in two weeks, and I cannot wait!

This past week Maddie attended drama camp at Liberty University. At the end of the week the campers performed the play, The Aristocats. Maddie was "Dutches" in the play.

All I can say is BRAVO to my girl and to the wonderful staff and students in the LU drama department! I tell you what, it was the real thing, TOP NOTCH--dressing rooms, costumes, make-up, tickets, two matinees, receiving line, roses!!!! Needless to say, yesterday was a happy day for our family! Below are some pictures of our little actress.In the center of this picture is Maddie getting a hug from
her Aunt Dolly. (No clue who the other too peeps are???)
Maddie and her Aunt Dayna and cousins
Grayson, Juette, Janna and Wyatt.
Maddie and one her friends from preschool,
years ago when we lived here. Neat huh???
Maddie and her two biggest fans...
...and two more of her bigger biggest fans!

Well, tomorrow I will get on the phone and call Comcast, again! Until then I will leave you with a recent picture of our sweet baby Jane.

Maddie looks so grown up!! Such a pretty picture (the one with Dayna) and Maddie looks so happy.

Speaking of how people look... Mrs. Dr. Logan, you are looking good!! Great picture!

Yay for Maddie and LU drama. Looks like you guys are having fun back in the burg! Glad you are settling in.

I'm sooo glad that you are living back here again. It's so good having you right around the corner, and being able to see you so often, like it used to be. Our house is alive with children again....with ALL the grandchildren that are here....and it's a good thing. I like your pictures, and Daddy and I are looking forward to seeing Maddie's play on video. Nice night last night. Thank you, thank you!!!

Finally! You're still blogging!! I wish so badly that I could have come to Maddie's play. Tell her if she makes the LCT and any LCA plays, we will be there! I know you were all very proud of her.

Sunday nights at the pool sound good. We used our baby pool last night, but I don't think that's the same:(

Aww- so awesome! I have loved the dramam opportunities my kids have had- it is great to see them on the stae. i am sure LU drama did a fabulous job with them. I think the couch they are sitting on in the one picture is the couch we used for "Meet Me In St. Louis." back in the day!!
Hope your internet is up and running soon!

Wow! Now that's what I call good customer service. Comcast cares?! They are even checking out your blog Denise. So funny! I'm laughing! I hope they really hook you up!

Love having you Logan's back in town and loved being able to be there for Maddie's play. I was seriously so excited about coming and she did great. It's fun watching the kids grow up.

Nikki said...

I am laughing so hard at the Comcast Cares!! How in the world did they find your blog?

Love the update and glad you are back to blogging. Good job Maddie!

Jane looks adorale and i cant believe how fast she is growing up. It seems like she was just born yesterday.

Lets get together soon...maybe once the kids are in school we could start walking or something?

I am glad you are back. I hope you get your internet worked out soon. I feel shut down without my computer.

Are you just the happiest thing in the world being back in Lynchburg? I bet you are still pinching yourself.

OK, Maddie looks 18 in those pictures. You better watch out!!!! I know you were all so proud of her. That is such a great opportunity for her. I would've been too shy to do that when I was her age.

Jennifer said...

Hey Denise! Looks like you're blogging on the same schedule as me...not that much! :) I hope you guys are enjoying being back in VA and I hope the kids are adjusting to their new schools - did they start this week? Can't wait to catch up with you!
