A Farewell to Proposals


Today Chris performs his last show with the Lewisville Community Theatre.



His rise back to acting was well-received and I for one hope he continues to act.





Thank you to everyone who came out in support. It made Chris' nights and mine as well.


Thanks Mom, Dad, Mr. and Mrs. Wehkamp, Emily, Uncle Jay and Aunt Ros, Nan, Nana, Beth and Everett and Alyssa, Shelley (and the family for letting us have her that night!), John and Ryan and Caleb and Shea, Dave, Jenica, Julie, Keri, Christie, Kori, Becca, Jenny, Tina and girls, and all the cast for making me feel at home night after night.

A Salute to Valentine's Day


For Christmas this year my mom received a gift from one of her seventh grade students. She claimed at the time that this gift would reign as bizarre teacher gift for years to come.



I had to concede that it did in fact beat out the model clipper ship one of my second graders gave me two years ago.

Today though, I think the scorpion ashtray might have met its match.

The Stuff Honeymoons Are Made Of

Well, Friday I came home to a great surprise.
 
Chris had gone to a travel agent and had laid out on the counter an array of fun honeymoon destinations and ideas.  It was so much fun looking through the pamphlets and dreaming about our upcoming vacation together.
 
After perusing the materials for awhile, Chris mentioned he had got something else for me while out that afternoon. 
How exciting!  What could it be?!
 
A new bathing suit for the trip?  A camera accessory?  A new book I could start reading?
 
Nope.
 
It was a bottle of Beano.
 
One week of living together and Chris felt it was necessary that I discover the benefits of a gas-reducing enzyme supplement.
 
I think it's fair to say the "honeymoon" period is ending.
 
But we are now well equipped for the actual honeymoon.
 
Week one - success.
