it's been awhile...

It's been a month since our last post. I could say that we haven't blogged because we have been busy traveling--to the beach, Greensboro, the beach again, etc. But the truth is, the real reason for not blogging is because I have discovered a new, mindless way to spend my valuable time. It's called Facebook. Yes. I am a big, fat sucker. I now have a belly-full of my own words, which went something like this: "Why would anyone my age be on Facebook or MySpace?" I totally made fun of old fogies (ie--over 25 years old) who had a page on Facebook. Now, I am one of those old fogies. Thanks to my friend, Kara, who had a page on Facebook, admitted that she thought it was a bit silly but that she was able to keep up with old friends this way, I decided to create my own page....and well......now I am hooked. I am having so much fun re-connecting with old friends and keeping up with current ones. I must confess that I rarely get on my computer without logging onto FB because it is now my homepage.

So, now that I have been facebooking for several weeks, the novelty is wearing off, and I am ready to reclaim my life. And speaking of, it really has been pretty full of adventure this past month. Here are a few highlights.

Paul and I took our boys and joined Anna and Jackson at the beach. We had so much fun hanging out on the beach, building sandcastles, bodyboarding, swimming, and jumping waves (this is one of Bennett's favorite activities).

We left the beach, spent one night at home, and then headed for Greensboro for a golf tournament. Paul shot a 64, a personal best. We hung out with the Brewer Bunch, went to a birthday party for our nephew, Samuel, and enjoyed playing in Grammy's pool. I got to do some shopping at Friendly Center, and I always love that.

We returned from Greensboro, spent a few days at home, then Anderson, Bennett and I returned to the beach with Anna and Jackson. So much fun.

I'll post pictures later. Right now, I need to put some boys to bed.
