When Hope Goes To The Movies…

…to see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory with the nieces, Tabi, age 9, and Sharyn, age 5, just who spills her popcorn all over the floor? Um, yeah. It was me. Speaking on my own behalf, I WAS helping Sharyn open her fruity treats when the popcorn box fell out of my lap.

Also, I was Plumb Tired. Camped all weekend and stayed out Saturday night past my bedtime due to our attendence of the debut performance of my cousin Lana’s and Josh’s (and Richard’s and Rich’s and Andrea’s) band, Whisper Down



Not a great pic, but the only one I got with all five of them together. They premiered at the Coffee Break in Terre Haute, Indiana and put on a great show. Almost-Charlotte also attended. Witness a Portrait of Hope and Lana and Charlotte



When I presented myself for our departure, my husband said, “You have your shawl on backwards.”

Um, yeah. I know.
