OH KARA AND FLIP FLOPS
ok ... so the story is .. KARA can't stand the sound of flip flops, nor flip flops at all.
Penny and Corin ,, and if i'm not mistaken kate and tara LOVE flip flops ..
I think Kara would rather wear snowboots in JULY in FLORIDA than wear or hear flip flops LOL!
I still love you Kara and I STILL LOVE my flops!
I may be safer wearing cowboy boots and risking the sand situation rather than face Kara (if she makes it) and Mel in a pair of flip flops. Are you talking all flip flops? Even the really nice leather dressy ones? Or only the cheap rubber ones (we call them thongs down under)?
Kate, that is wonderful that your sister is going to go to the conference and help with the babysitting. I can't wait to meet ya' all (is that the correct Texan way to say it?)

Well I'm only in Texas because my husband lives here (I'm a Jersey girl), but I believe it's "y'all".
Poor Kara. I'm with you girl, I hate them. You and I can represent in real shoes.

Sorry Mel, I'm a major flip flop person. I've gotta have every color and style possible.
I'm hoping we can make the conference or at least just me. Make room Mel.

Wow...gotta love the flip flops..I'm with Penny I wear them in the winter as well...I guess it's the former swimmer in me...always around a pool deck.
Kate-that's great about the babysitter!

Mel and Donna.... I dreamt that I met you both at the conference, with Alex and Michael. In the dream I could hear the suction machines and see the sleeve caths and feel the humid air from the boys vents come through the masks over their trachs. Very surreal dream, took me back to when Shane had all that. Must be a sign that I will see both of you and your boys next summer!

How funny! I hope you do get to meet Michael, he's being a very good boy with his ten to twelve hours per DAY off the vent lately. Meeting Alex would be fabulous, but I can't even imagine the logistics of packing that boy up to travel cross country! We go to Houston for one appointment and we look like we're going on safari. =/
One of our nurses and I were laughing the other day trying to picture Alex and Michael disassembling each others equipment. =) They are TROUBLE. I can't wait for the day we can get them in a room together.

8 months is a long time to vent wean.... you never know what equipment these little guys could be rid of by July.
