Yes, we're alive!

Sorry we haven't updated anything since February. Wow, where have we been? Well, it's been crazy. Julian and I went to the US for him to spend time with Baba Dora and for me to go to a meeting in Atlanta. Amanda and Maya were in Paris. Then the volcano extended our trips by an extra week. It was stressful, but at least we were with family.

More recently, we've been trying to buy the house we're renting. That's also been taking a lot of time. But we have no excuse. You get out of it for a couple of weeks, then you forget that it's important to keep up with the kids otherwise you forget the stories and you have to apologize profusely to our readers in the hopes they'll come back.

By way of an apology. Here's a video of the song: "Kicking Dad Like a Football". Remember, a while back I asked for help with lyrics to a song about Julian sneaking into bed and kicking me like a football all night long. Well since then Eric and Laura contributed lyrics and one night when Grandma Bette was visiting we recorded something off the cuff.

We'll also upload a bunch of pictures, since mom (Dora) has been asking for them for so long.

Sorry again for the delay. Thanks for reading.

Some photos and the song video are now available above (by way of Picasa). Let me know if you have any problems.

Yeah.I love the "Ow, ow, yeaow parts". It's the most bruised I've ever gotten with a song. Thanks so much for the great lyrics. We're like Webber and Rice, Sondheim and ... you get the idea.
